Now explain why my tailbone hurts

Very helpful. I'm doing an endurance cycling event & am trying to increase my fitness & focus on my core. Absolutely brilliant!!
Wow this whole time I have been wrong! you have to inhale when you go back and exhale when you go up. Awesome, thank you 👍👍
yes! breathing is very important specially with exercises that involve your core and back muscles. knowing when to breath can help prevent a lot of injuries!
Thanks this is the best demo i have seen, i am going to try.
6 weeks postpartum started working out today and this help me for proper posture it s definitely a journey let s go
Hello Belinda! 👋🏼 I can only imagine what that must be like! Im very happy to hear that this video helped you! Thank you for your feedback! If there is anything I can do to help please let me know!
Keep on going proud mama
Thanks for this quick vid tutorial.
Thanks for this. I will start doing this exercise
Excellent video, thank you for sharing
Thanks, thinking of joining the british army as an infantryman and this helps me prepare
Thanks so much it worked when I tried it.
Excellent tutorial. I`m just starting with sit ups, and wanted to know a safe way to do it without injuring myself.. Thanks ❤
Hello, thank you very much for this video - i have sciatica so any other excersise shown/i've tried have been too painful for me, but this looks great. This looks gentle but effective and that breathing advice is great. 😄
you help me a lot on my PHE assessment😊
Thanks this a great help the only problem is me I'm having a hard using my upper body
hello my friend! thank you for watching and leaving your feed back! If you need some help strengthening your upper abdomen try placing your feet underneath a couch or something heavy in order brace your legs down and isolate your abdomen. exhale and engage your abdomen to bring yourself up and get those shoulder blades off the ground. Start with a crunch and then work your way up to the sit up. make sure you do not strain your neck and spine. holding a plank form is another great way to build full body strength. If you need more help feel free to reach out and don't forget to check out the HOW TO PLAYLIST for more instructional videos!! I hope this helps! and thanks again for watching!!

Good tips 😍
thank bro
Great tips! My form is definitely improving 😭
Keep on working on it, you got this!!
how many days??
Why do you cry?
this exercise can help for my gerd
I can't reach w/o having to lift my feet up. how do you stop yourself from doing that?
Hi friend! Sorry for the delayed response! What’s happening here is that your lower abdomen needs a bit more strength in order to perform the sit up without raising your legs. Try adding flutter kicks to your core routine and you’ll see that when you develop more of your lower abs, you’ll have more control with your sit up!
This is really helpful and way more informative than the other videos, except, trying to lift myself up is absolutely impossible as if I'm superglued down 😭 I have scoliosis, I had the spinal surgery and my torso is incredibly weak now! Do you have any tips for people like me? If 1 is beginner level, then i'd be -100 🥺
Hello 👋🏼 willow thank you for reaching out and I’m sorry to hear about your scoliosis. If you are recovering from surgery your body will require some physical therapy.
Tip 1:
If you’re doctor has cleared you for physical activity I would start with a “sit back“
Start sitting on your rear with your legs extended straight in front of you.
Place your feet under a couch 🛋 or have a partner brace your legs.
Inhale and engage your abdominal muscles as you slightly lean back, reclining with control as far back as possible. Start with small recline and hold that pose when your abs are challenged but still in control.
Then exhale out through your mouth and sit back up returning to your starting position.
This is one of many ways to build up your core strength. Try it out and let me know how it goes!
I hope this helps! Thank you for much for watching!
Check out the "knees-over-toes" guy. He believes you can rehabilitate virtually any part of your body. After years of knee pain (starting as a kid) and multiple surgeries (one knee even has a partial fake bone in it) he now has incredible knee strength and performance. Check him out on CZcams and watch ALL of his mini-clips. I think it would be worth checking him out.

I Will Success For Sit Ups By Watching Ur Video Thanks🎉❤
Nice sir
Thank You F.F.T
My aim is to be able to do 60 by this time next year. But I cant lift myself up like that, I just don't have the stomach strength
hello Lily! That’s no problem you got this! When I began my fitness journey I couldn’t do single sit up at all!
We can do this!!
If you need some help strengthening your upper abdomen try placing your feet underneath a couch or something heavy in order brace your legs down and isolate your abdomen.
First let’s Start with a crunch and then work our way up to the sit up.
1. Lie on your back and take a take a deep breath to Engage your abdominal muscles this is your starting position. (Place those feet under something heavy)
2. exhale and engage your abdomen to bring yourself up and get those shoulder blades off the ground.
3. Inhale and return to starting position
Once ready move up to the sit ups:
1. Lie on your back and take a take a deep breath to Engage your abdominal muscles this is your starting position. (Keep those feet placed under something heavy)
2. exhale and engage your abdomen to bring yourself up as far as you can and Hold
3. Inhale and return to starting position.
make sure you do not strain your neck and spine When crunching or sitting up. Take it nice and slow and move with control.
Another great exercise to help build that core is a plank. If you want to learn other moves that will help you build the strength necessary to do a sit up check out my HOW TO PLAYLIST for more instructional videos!!
I hope this helps and please stay in touch! I would love to help!!
@@FitnessForTransformation thankyou so much. Im actually looking to do wrestling training in a year so I definitely need to start with it. I can do a plank and crunches are alright, thanks for ur advice! :)
@@lily.9280 that's very cool!! im happy to hear that! wrestling is fun sport! if you need any help don't hesitate to reach out! thanks again for watching! I wish you the best!
Me too 😢 unless someone stands on my feet
How do I deal with the pain at my tailbone when I get up and down cus it hurts 😢 should I put something comfy there?
I want to cry, 😢 I can't.
nice job bro kalbs i am sub
This is my first time doing sit ups, i can't get my lower back off the ground without an anchor at my feet. Any advise?
All i’d say is ‘practice makes perfect’
Any tips for really boney people? My spine always pushes against the ground and kills my back lol I'm 13 yrs old
Hi 👋🏼yes definitely! If your spine is hurting try using a yoga mat or another soft surface to lay on and put on some thick sweat pants or shorts to protect your tail bone.
I have excess skin on my rear from loosing so much weight and it causes me pain. the pants really help.
when you lay back between reps keep your back and shoulders off the ground and come back up. Don't rest your back on the ground in between repetitions.
I hope this helps! please let me know how it goes!
@@FitnessForTransformation You think my school allows yoga mats, nah only hard floor .
What if you can’t get up all the way though… Are there any drills to improve getting up during a sit up?
am too fat too
😂
👍
🏆
thans dear
So why are all these people saying that these kind of sit-ups are not good for us
I do my sit-ups the way that your instructing them and I'm getting results
ello there, this vid amazing lel
👋🏼 Thanks
New subscriber
Welcome my friend!!
I stopped doing sit-ups for a few years and forgot how to do them but when you explained it I suddenly remember how to do them
When I do situps I got pain in my abdominal/stomach what can I do to prevent it?
My PE teacher said we have a fitness test and this is in it and i find it hard to go up so hopefully this will help
Same
as a wise man once said, “Nobody believes in you
You've lost again and again
The lights are cut off. But you're still looking at your dream. Reviewing it every day and saying to yourself. It's not over until I win”
What do I do if I can’t reach the top during a set up?
What does it mean when he says engage core ?
I tried this but i can barely move a few inches before flopping down.
Is it okay if I tie my foot to something so that I don’t break the posture? Thank you
Does anyone know why I cannot do that with my hands behind my neck but can with my arms crossed like that? Thank you ☺️
Is it okay if I cant go up all the way 😭 I just go as far as I can and go back down, I just started so I know its a journey. Thank you!’
i could not do amy situps even though i am not fat and i can do around 30-40 pushups in one sitting.
Have been trying to do but I keep lifting my leg
I’ve been doing 100 sit-ups every day
Realized that I can't do sit ups, so I watched this
Yo im 13 and i just cant do a situp i get about halfway up and then I just cant get any higher
But i can do a sit up on the bed🙂 thats what i need it and thank you for helping😊
Kaya
i still cant do it. i cant bring my upper body up it falls back down and it brings my feet up.
i did 100 situps and now my abs have been hurting for a week what can i do?
The fact I'm watching this on a Thursday is ironic 😂😂😂
I'm commiting to do hone workout 1 hour everyday and increasing the number of hours as i get comfortable
This tutorial video is for my exam
You got this my friend!
🙂
this is my first time doing sit up and I keep lifting my feet while doing it is that okay?
hello my friend! I apologize for the delayed respons. thank you for watching and leaving your feedback!
To answer your question, yes it’s okay if you lift them a slight bit. As you get stronger try keeping them on the ground as that will help with isolating your core and giving you more out of each rep.
what is the difference between doing 100 sit ups 3 times a week and 60 sit ups 5 times a week?
I can't reach without having to lift my legs and also I can't straight up without having to hold the floor any tips for a beginner, please
Me too..without an anchor for my feet..I'm going nowhere
I'm having the same problem. Any advice?
What if I can't reach the top?
I did what the video said, and I still cannot do a sit up. Does anyone have any tips?
to do it the easier way you have need to make your feet hold an thing to hold on to learn it an easier wah
How am I supposed to keep my feet on the ground?😅
I still cant get off the ground lol
what does it mean by "Core still engaged" what is the core? Can you explain in layman terms?
Act as if you're gonna get punched in the stomach and hold it like that.
You know when you poopoo and you push with your tummy. That’s core engagement
I can’t even get up half way, how do y’all do it???
What the cause of abdominal pain or stomach pain after situps? What to do to prevent it?
I don't think u can prevent is it's really common
i think it's just muscle soreness , as your muscles get stronger the pain will decrease .
How fast we do it?
Great question my friend! The most important thing when exercising is control.
Exhale slowly to bring yourself up and inhale slowly to bring yourself back down.
Start moving slow and feel your muscles work together. Create a connection with your mind and your muscles.
Once you’ve mastered moving slow you can begin to speed it up. Be careful with your form and make sure you don’t hurt your neck.
I hope this Helps!! Let me know if you have any questions!!
@@FitnessForTransformation Thanks . 😊
@@xingergd780 you got it! I’m here to help!
Whenever I try to do situps I literally could feel my spine moving??? as I go up (idk trying to support my upper body or what but im obviously doing it wrong) and when I go down I srsly could hear and feel my back slapping the yoga mat. Idk anymore 🤣
Hi Mariah! I totally understand. Sit ups can be a bit advanced but you can do it! Have you tried my breathing techniques? On my how to sit up
video I mention the breathing pattern I use to get the most out of each repetition.
breathing is key in order to activate your abs and bring yourself up and down with control.
First - try placing your feet underneath a couch or something heavy in order brace your legs down and isolate your upper abdomen.
Second - exhale and engage your abdomen to bring yourself up and get those shoulder blades off the ground. Start with a crunch and then work your way up to the sit up. make sure you do not strain your neck and spine.
a few variations to help you develop the core strength to do a sit ups are crunches, flutter kicks, planks, and standing abdomen workouts like steam engines and knee raises. If you need more help feel free to reach out and don't forget to check out the HOW TO PLAYLIST for more instructional videos!! I hope this helps! and thanks again for watching!!
@@FitnessForTransformation yes i did! It definitely felt better after following what you said in the vid. Thank you!
Is there anytips for beginner, so we are not strain the neck?
Because, i keep push my head. Anytips will be appreciated.. Thanks for all reader.. 😮
Why is it good to do sit ups
So, I am what one could generously call "top heavy". Every time I try to do a sit up, unless my feet are anchored like a battleship, I end up in a sloppy crunch and roll over onto my side like a pregnant Saint Bernard. Is there any way to do a sit up that doesn't require me to stick my feet under a TV from 1997 to keep from flopping around on the rug?
🤣 Maybe this reply isn't needed since it has been 5 months, but i'd recommend still "anchoring" yourself. Practice will help a lot until you are able to do so
Now explain why my tail bone hurts when going up and down
Damn this was useful also you mad cute 😳🥴
Im glad this helped :) thanks for watching!!
I can't do one but I can do 60 crunches help me
Whatttttt
