Sit up twist:

Lie on the floor on your back. Bend knees so that your feet are flat on floor and put tongue to the roof of your mouth to engage neck and upper back muscles. Hands on the side of head sit up by trying to row up the spine. Tuck chin into chest and curl the spine. Twist the left elbow to touch right knee and then right elbow to touch left knee. And curl back down keeping the chin tucked in. Lie down slowly. Then come up again but alternate which elbow touches which knee each time.
