Personal Training Tips
This is an advanced ab exercise because it places a large amount of pressure on the lower back, and many trainers will say never perform sit ups with the feet anchored.
Every exercise has benefits and risks. If you are a serious athlete doing highly vigorous and competitive sports the benefit of incline sit ups may outweigh the risk of injury.
However, if you have a lower back injury and are not competing in serious athletics, incline sit ups might have a higher risk of injury than benefit gain.
