DieselCrew.com - Torso Strength - Straight Leg Sit-ups

Hold the weight behind your head to create constant resistence.

Smitty, this is an awesome video. I love your ideas.

Thanks for sharing greatness

Jesus christ guys. I've seen a lot of strrength training concepts. You guys are really pioneers from what i've seen. Do you press the dumbbell against you torso instead of holding it with a double grip to focus effort on the core?

Thanks for the kind words.

Yes, you definitely want to pull the db into your chest as you drive up. A regression to this movement would be to anchor your feet under a stationary object. This advanced version is unanchored and you have to force your legs outward against the cage.

BEAST!!

I used this exercise today, after ATG pause squats. Thanks for uploading these videos, Smitty.
