Band Resisted Sit Up 1

Band Resisted Sit Up 1 turns a basic exercise into a highly productive movement with added tension. Gradually the band tension and distance from the origin point of the band can increase to make this exercise more challenging. A contraction of two seconds or longer in the fully contracted position on top adds tremendous difficulty to the exercise.

Keeping the arms in the proper position requires tremendous focus throughout the entire set. Avoid cranking the neck forward especially during the top portion of the rep. Focus on keeping the neck in a neutral position and keeping the tension on the core musculature.
Anchor Your Feet
Sand Bags are the perfect tool for anchoring the feet into a stable position throughout the set. Sand conforms to the shape of the feet making the position much more comfortable to maintain during the set.

Speed of Movement
Every repetition has a timing assigned to maximize the benefits of every set. The Band Resisted Sit Up 1 can use a variety of speed of movement options pending the client needs. For example coming up explosively has a different effect than a slower execution. At times a combination of rep timing sequences are needed within the same training session for an advanced trainee.
