I've been doing sit-ups, but I may stop doing regular on the floor sit-ups for awhile because yesterday I could barely move. I'll try another type of ab work today though. I'll figure out some non-hurtful things to do.

i have some good ab workouts that are intense but non-hurtful for your back.
-get in position to do a crunch, but let your knees fall apart to the sides. (looks awkward, but just go with it lol)
-keep one hand behind your head, and do a crunch, reaching with the other hand towards your feet X20
-Without stopping, stay in the same position but reach with your free hand toward the ceiling for 20 reps.
-Still not stopping, move your free arm up by your head so it's touching your ear. Go for 20 more reps.
-Switch arms and do it again on the other side!
It sounds kind of complicate but it works amazingly!
Another of my faves:
-bring both knees bent 90 degrees up off the ground.
-keeping your knees together, let them fall to one side.
-do crunches in this position, as many as you want.
-switch sides.
this really works the obliques, and you can really feel your muscles working.
hope these may help you out a little bit! keep up the good work!
