Another Abs Question!

[Wendy G.]

I am nearing the end of my first trimester and am wondering if I could do ab work on an incline bench. I know you are not supposed to be flat on your back after the first trimester and thought this would be an alternative. I searched the archives and didn't see anything about doing abs on an incline.

Thanks!

Hi Wendy! Yes, I was told that an incline position was acceptable. I, personally, would just suggest keeping the ab workouts in this position to a limit three minutes as to be even safer (just a suggestion).
