Do a handstand on them feet 👌🏼🤣. Hell of a spotter lol
I really appreciate all you’re doing to help those trying out . It can be straining but worth it for you and your body and us and our body. Beautiful work man.
Great video man ! Looking forward to the cardio vid
I cant do situps very easily because my lower back digs into the ground really hard and it hurts, like especially the spine and tailbone. But thanks for your tutorial anyway! hope this helps me get better.
Deng, i should have went chair force lol
Lol
@Gabriel Marcus bots
Thank you for all of this helpful info! I’m getting ready for Army BCT and OCS right after
Ok this morning I did 103 army sit ups in 2 minutes. The key is learning proper form then keeping proper form. I hooked my feet under the dresser so it wasn't ankles being held. But I did keep my heel on the floor throughout. My abs have 12 years of muscle memory and doing sit ups is not hard. The new Army pushups are very easy also from years of muscle memory. But I am surprised in the Army they don't have a pull ups test. Why is that? I've moved into weighted calisthenics and now do pull ups and dips with weight plates chained to me. I need to work on running and building up larger quads. Your site is comprehensive and very practical.
About to get on the plane
GOOD LUCK!!!!
Francisco Diaz how's military life?
Yeah how is it?
how's it goin?
How’s it going
I have the same problem with my back not hitting the ground properly, I only ever noticed it during basic so that was definitely a struggle for me. Nice video
dude I barely hit 50 today and needed this information. im really trying to lose 20lbs and get my situps to around 70, thank you for your service and tips
goo5976 dude depending on your age group thats actually a solid score. But you might be a 300 or nothing so idk
yomama isaniceperson 50 situps is barely a pass I'm passing all around but barely a 300 is over 100 situps
Not joining the military. But, I do have a law enforcement PT test with the Army. So, I assume they'll score me the same way. Thanks for all the tips on the running, sit- ups and push-ups.
Thks Mr Matty Wart now I'm training the u s Army push up they are so nice to me keep it up
Didn’t know about the resting position, so thanks for the info now I can actually do them right
Glad you got something from this :)
I can't do a proper situp, but i can do a proper pushup. smdh
lucky you I'm the opposite
Your videos help tons
I really appreciate the video, thanks.
I love the flag in the background while you did this video! Looks great 👍
Great tutorial!
My husband is in BCT for three weeks now , but he told me he just can do 6 sit-ups which surprises me. I’m worry about if he can pass the PT test.
Did he make it?

I’m on It!!!!!
Can I get your advice on breathing? Because I feel like I’m always holding my breath or something during the sit-up event. Thanks!
Thank you!!! I've been trying to do it the "Navy way", the Army way works much better for me.
Didn't see this before solider thank you!
09:19 Best Advice On This Exercise For Me! Thank You!
Can you explain about the deployment army in reserve, please. Thanks
why cant they use leg raises for strength test
if you did do the half crunches while doing the actual PT test, would that be counted?
I only did 62 sit ups in 2 minute i think for my age group its 45 min and 82 max im 28
I’m 14 and I did 67 in 2 minutes
@@cyriljr.mansueto3045 the younger you are the more they expect you to do
Well they definitely won’t expect a 14 year old to be a recruit
@@cyriljr.mansueto3045 Only gets harder when you start growing and gaining weight!
Won't you get back problems long term if you spine keeps hitting the floor after every rep?
So they hold your feet? That makes it so much easier.
This really helped me, thank you so much!
Can you talk about your MOS 25Bravo? Cause I want to enter with that MOS and I would like to know about it. Thanks for your videos all amazing! ^-^
I can do the basic push ups and running is a breeze!! But these sit ups on my own 😩
Lol I think I have the same spinal weirdness you have! I have abs but I suck at sit ups struggling to get through 10 its going to be tough to get to 50 in a month. Should I try to do two sets of 30 for a week then more? Is it easier to use more legs?
Can you make a video about FSP and the possible promotions from it
I unfortunately have a 17 degree curve in my back and it hurts a little in my lower back to do sit ups. Any tips?
For the PAST in the Air Force we have to go all the way so our back is straight up and down.
they do not have to anymore
What happens if you fil or get terminated you get kicked out or what?
You said you have a big curve in your spine. Did you get in with scoliosis??
Do they hold your feet down in basic training or do they make you just pull yourself up?
Alexis caldwell Feet are held down.
Can I use a crunch machine to get better at situps
What does it mean if my back starts hurting before I reach any core fatigue? Anything involving core workouts tend to strain my back before my core
Try not to pull your head/neck up with your arms. You need to use your core to pull yourself up
How many chances do they get to take a PT?
So, I am trying to enlist in the Air Force. When I go to AF BMT, they're going to have me do the elbows variation for the PT? This isn't something none of the AF bloggers mentioned. 🤔

Please help me I can’t even do 1 sit-up because of my tailbone but I’ve recently been working on my core at the gym. Will gaining core strength reduce stress on my tailbone! I know it’s an older video but please respond. Thanks a lot
No, sadly. That's the problem with sit ups, it's works the core, but it's straight up(pun intended) unhealthy for your spine.
First
Dang I didn’t even know that was a thing! I’m gonna have to start doing that thanks man lol
I can't even do sit-ups for 2 minutes straight... Basic is going to kick my ass!!
jason williams I still need to take the ASVAB. I'm waiting for my gauges to close up. They were at a 00 and it's only been 2 weeks
jason williams I am getting their! I'm 28 and it's been years since I have done any kind of work out. I'm not in "bad" shape, just not in good shape. I'm doing my 2 mile in 19mins flat. Still have alot of work to do but I'm going to keep working at it and not give up!
jason williams Thanks man! What's your MOS?
jason williams lol well good luck brother!! I'm aiming for 31B. Just hope I can do good enough on my ASVAB
How many sit ups are women expected to do?
I hit 91 situps a few days ago in 2 minutes
Wait a minute. You have scoliosis! So do I and it sucks, man.
Tried so many times. I cannot do a single proper army situp. I only get halfway. What am I doing wrong? I am trying my very best to go all the way, trying like Hell and nothing is working.
Edit: Gotten better at it. Got to 32 but will keep going. I won't give up.
That much progress in a week? Congrats. Share your secret dude.
Sit-ups are my weakness too
If my enlistment contract has my job in it, will I automatically get it or is their still a chance it get change and if so, Why?
have you sworn in?
Shootemup89 no
Then for the most part yes you should be fine. But there is like a 5% chance that it might get taken even though its got a hold on that job for you. But I wouldn't worry about that. If the recruiter locks in that job for you when you go to MEPs you should be good to go.
Shootemup89 ok great thanks
I've mainly been doing planks to help with my sit ups. Idk if it's really helping though.
Planks are good for core strength but to be completely honest they do next to nothing to help with improving situps
Shootemup89 Thanks! I'm gonna try out some of the exercises in the video and see if that helps out.
My neck muscles always hurt really bad when I do a lot of sit-ups.. does this mean I am doing them wrong?
Means you are pulling on your neck, stop using your arms to pull your head up. Use your abs. So yes, technically you are doing them wrong
Corey Meier oh man, this is super helpful. I always have this problem. Thanks Matt!
Thank you I am a female getting in shape to join the army I've watched a lot of ur vids definitely helpful thank you and I promise I will not complain a lot haha

Am I the only one who’s neck gets really sore while doing sit-ups?
Don't pull with your hands too much, use the momentum of your body
Matt Ward Makes sense. I’ll try that next time. Thanks!
I get headaches.. But cross your arms on your chest. Might help with the neck
How many do you have to do correctly to pass in 2019
Johnny Cortez look it up but keep in mind in a few months they are making a new pt test and getting rid of sit-ups completely
dylan miller that’s not until October 2020
@@camomani8624 Google shows sit ups are still a requirement
12:40
Do you have someone holding your feet down in the test? I have seen that you do not have someone holding your feet. Which is it?
100% you do
Are u still in the military
yes
11:12
Anybody else get dizzy doing sit-ups
Yeah. I got a curved back as well, so it would be difficult for me to do situps I think.
Sit ups are bad for your back and I hate the fact I’m going to need to do this
Explain why they are bad
They are phasing then out in a few months don’t worry about it
dylan miller I’m going to basic in like a week so I’ll have to do sit-ups lol
KingZD1 same I leave in 2-3 weeks good luck
dylan miller what do you mean? I want to be a marine and I’m fifteen and I was wondering if I have to do these, even though their not the best for your back.
Remember everyone army pt is changing and sit ups are being phased out
Jordan Carlson I thought those aren’t being implemented until October 2020?
@@camomani8624 yeah you're correct but a lot of people wont go to basic/enlist until then or shortly before then also some bases have already implemented as a test of the new pt test
Jordan Carlson I hope they do the new PT test with mine because my tailbone kills me when I try to do a sit-up I do great on my pushups but when it comes to my sit-ups it hurts so bad. I’m wondering if it’s just my form or is there a way I can get a waiver for sit-ups if that’s even possible. Please answer man I’ve been too scared to ask my recruiter.
@@camomani8624 when do you go
Jordan Carlson I’m still in the process to be completely honest with you man I’ve been waiting to THC to get out of my system and never felt better. I’ve been 34 days clean but I’ve lost over 40 pounds and finally reached the weight required. So they’re going to wait till I’m completely clean before I go to MEPS. So depending on my MOS it could be Late September to even later I haven’t checked any new MOS’s I was going to wait until I’m clean. But to answer your question. At the latest early 2020 but I could be wrong, could be earlier or later.
How about the breathing

one has to be really good at situps so he has time to rest during those 2 mins lol
honestly i dont know how im going to do 40 sit ups in a minute

@@thunderbuddy78 ayy congrats bro! Be safe!
Damn I can’t believe your lil bro is in AFJROTC I’m in there too😂
This was great, been searching for "efficient sit ups" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Bondraw Firm Ferriferous - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my friend got cool success with it.
