Weighted Decline Sit-up

Expert Advice

Do not pull on your neck or use momentum; focus on using your abs to lift your torso.

Secure your legs at the top of the decline bench and lie down with a weight on your chest.
Cross your arms over the weight and keep your chin slightly tucked.
Curl your upper body up towards your thighs, exhaling as you lift.
Lower back down with control to the starting position.
