i'm not really sure since i dont do situps. i am sure that would help too.
i looked up some ab workouts for you online. i just went to goodle and typed in "ab workouts" TONS of stuff came up. here are some of the websites, with good information on them.
Ball Crunches
Lie face-up with the ball resting under your mid/lower back. Cross your arms over the chest or place them behind your head. Contract your abs to lift your torso off the ball, pulling the bottom of your ribcage down toward your hips. As you curl up, keep the ball stable (i.e., you shouldn't roll). Lower back down, getting a stretch in the abs, and repeat for 1 set 12-16 reps.
^^like the yoga balls
Lie on your back with knees bent, hands behind your head. Keeping lower back pressed into the floor, lift your shoulder blades off the floor and then curl your upper body diagonally across your body towards your right knee. Contract your abs and obliques as hard as you can at the top of the movement. Lower back down and repeat for 16 reps on the same side before switching sides. Do 1 or more sets.
^those are the crunches to the side i suggested before
Lie face up on the floor and lace your fingers behind your head. Bring the knees in towards the chest and lift the shoulder blades off the ground without pulling on the neck. Straighten left leg out to about a 45-degree angle while simultaneously turning the upper body to the right, bringing the left elbow towards the right knee. Switch sides, bringing the right elbow towards the left knee. Continue alternating sides in a 'pedaling' motion for 2 sets of 12-16 reps.
Lie in the floor with knees pulled in over the chest. Place a ball between knees and stretch arms our to the sides like an airplane, palms facing up. Contract the abs and twist the hips to the right, bringing knees towards the floor (keep your shoulders flat on the floor). Don't touch the floor, but use the abs to bring knees back to start and go to the other side.
Lie on your side balanced on forearm, feet and hips stacked on top of one another, other hand behind head. Holding the torso steady, slowly contract your abs and lift the hips off the floor (don't sink into shoulder). Lower and repeat.

when you do these or situps, its best to place your fingers above your head and your elbows out this prevents putting strain on your neck. also make sure you lift your chin to the sky. sorry, i didnt really answer your question, but like i said, i've never really done sit ups for my abs. i hope what i gave you helps. good luck. ♥
