Challenge your abs, hip flexors, and even the neck musculature with this combo exercise. Simply maintain the half sit-up position while performing flyes.
Anchor your feet and lean back until you feel your abs engage. You can use a lighter weight and do the exercise in a timed manner for 60 seconds, or use heavier weights and go for 10-15 reps. Keep your spine and neck as neutral as possible.
I'll have to admit that my mind was elsewhere. We were all sitting in the lounge at the Los Angeles Strength Seminar and everyone was drinking wonderful things like beer and bourbon, often together. One lovely young woman was drinking a wine spritzer. I can allow that, if you're a lovely young woman.
