A member asked:
I'm a tween and when i do sit ups the ribs under my breasts start to hurt and i don't know why.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Muscle strengthening: Sit ups cause the abdominal muscles to get stronger. They attach under the ribs and typically this is exactly where you have the pain when you are building up the abdominal muscles - it is quite normal
