When completing a workout, it is important that you perform exercises correctly to ensure you can maximise the impact it will have on your body and fitness.

We have enlisted the help of Y Fitness Trainer, Jack to help us learn the correct way to perform a sit-up.

This exercise is a great way to improve your core strength and it can also help with strengthening your diaphragm. Looking to work on your posture, balance and stability.. a sit-up is perfect for getting your body to work the way you want it to! 

Make sure you follow along and let's get your form into shape! 

Common Mistake: Do not use momentum to complete this exercise, instead we want to squeeze your vertebrae up off the floor and slowly control your movement on the way down. 

The below video explains the correct way to perform this exercise.
