Quarter Sit-Up
Gym Exercise Card
Equipment
Quarter sit-ups focus on engaging the abdominal muscles with slight elevation of the torso from a supine position. This exercise enhances core strength and stability, crucial for maintaining good posture and reducing back pain. It is a beginner-friendly move that targets the rectus abdominis without the strain of full sit-ups.
How to do it
- Lie on your back with legs extended and arms by your sides.
- Engage your core to slightly lift your head and shoulders off the ground.
- Hold for a moment at the top, ensuring the lower back remains in contact with the floor.
- Slowly lower back down to the starting position.
- Repeat for desired repetitions.
