GHD Sit-Up

Setup: Sit on the GHD with feet secured, hips slightly off the pad, knees bent, and torso upright.

Movement: Lower your torso backward through full range of motion until hands touch the floor behind you, then contract the abs to sit back up until shoulders pass the hips.

Standards:

• Hands touch the floor behind at bottom
• Shoulders pass hips at the top
• Full range of motion through hips and spine

Focus Points: Control the descent, engage core throughout, avoid excessive hip flexor pulling.
