Oblique Muscles

Here is a sit up variation: Lay on your back with your legs bent, knees 90 degrees. Push back with your abdominal muscles so your lower back is on the floor. Put your hands behind your neck with your elbows out. Keep your head, neck and spine aligned. Come up for a sit up. Extend your right arm and bring up your bent left leg straight up so that your hand touches your left ankle. Repeat for four sets of ten repetitions. Now extend your left arm and bring up your right bent leg straight up so that your left hand touches your right ankle. Repeat for four sets of ten repetitions.
