Hey guys,
I am new to the site. I was wondering if anyone knew any good excercises fro abs. I cannot do sit ups because I am a well endowed woman. I am currently wearing a 42 DDDD (and I fit in it small). When I do sit ups, it just pulls my back. Anyone know what I can do to work my abs until I loose enough weight in my chest?
Thanks,
Sarah

You could try the weighted ab machines most gyms have... One you sit on and twist side to side to work the obliques, the other is like doing crunches, but you are in a sitting position, so you don't have to lift your chest to work the same muscles. Just do lower weight resistance until you're more used to the regimen.0

I am only 5'2, and I am too short! my feet don't even touch the ground!
Thank you for your great ideas, I cannot wait to try them!0 -
You can do sit-ups on an exercise ball. I wear a 36F bra now (started more like 40G), so I know what's it like to have large breasts.0

Try oblique twists with a medicine ball and put your feet up.
When I do it, I really feel it in my abs!0
