Look up.

I agree looking up helps with the posture alot, looking slightly up that is, you don't wanna be hyperextending your neck. But it sounds like your real issue is weak abs that aren't able to support the weight.

Good point, I had a similar issue of leaning forward out of the hole but I could quickly correct it, so I was advised to start doing "get ups"......youtube them if you don't know.

I'll be damned they really work the abs! :o
