Sit-ups are garbage. They place emphasis on the psoas muscles and hip flexors; the abdominals don't actually contract during the movement, but act merely as stabilizers, rendering them an inadequate ab exercise. They also attenuate the vertebrae in the lower-back, since the psoas are tugging at the spine when they're contracted in such a position. As the back begins to arch, the vertebral column surrounding the psoas attachment grind together, which can lead to chronic back pain as a result of disk degeneration.
