What are some excersizes like sit ups?


I was just wondering about what exercises were similar to sit ups.
Also would an exercise bike serve the same as a regular bike?

In most ways the stationary bike is better since there's no traffic to slow you down, or rain to cut your ride short etc. Most bikes can be programmed to do "hills" or intervals etc.

As for ab exercises, crunches are great. Lay on a bench or the floor and flex your abs to lift your ribs off the floor. Don't actually "sit up" since that can be hard on the back and is over-kill on your abs.

Any exercise that gets you to flex your abs, hold, and release is good. Crunches do fine and you can do reverse crunches where you lift your hips off the bench/floor instead of your ribs - but do it the same where you focus your attention on your abs muscles and make them do the work.

3 sets of 20-25 of each would be one good workout.

Good luck.
