A note on weight: Because of the angle that you go to in the up position, and the constant tension on the abs, start out on the light side.<\/li><li>Lie on the floor with the medicine ball directly above your eyes, elbows flexed.<\/li><li>Execute the situp, keeping your arms on the same plane as you started \u2014 your abs are pushing the weight up \u2014 but only go to about 45 degrees (do not let your trunk come to vertical since that will release the tension on the abs).<\/li><li>The medicine ball will stay in line with the eyes and acts as a weight on the end of a pole (your arms), increasing the tension.<\/li><li>Hold to a 1- or 2-count and return to the floor position. Your abs are resisting the weight. Control your down motion. <em>Do not collapse.<\/em><\/li><li>Let your shoulders briefly touch the floor, and return to the up position.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep the reps low but as perfect as possible.
