So dgrubb5 mentioned on the One Hundred Push-up Challenge board a site for a 200 sit-up challenge. I think a lot of people would be interested in this and so I hope you're not upset dgrubb but I'm going to start a thread about it to get the word out there. Heres the site http://www.twohundredsitups.com/ I'm pretty sure its by the same people who did the One Hundred Push-Up Challenge. Hope everyone enjoys it!! Again, thank you to dgrubb5 for letting everyone know about such a wonderful site :bigsmile: :flowerforyou:

    that sounds like me:laugh: I used to do 50-60 sit-ups every night in about a minute (that was before I had kids). I was surprised I was able to do 35 for my test :happy:

    So last night I did the initial test and did 41 so I had to start on week three in the third column.

    Set 1-- 21 did
    Set 2-- 27 did
    Set 3-- 21 did
    Set 4-- 21 did
    Set 5-- max (at least 30) I did 80!!!:noway:

    I couldn't believe it I just kept going! I know tomorrow I'm going to be sore but to be able to do 200 crunches would be fantastic!!!!

    Yay, I found it! I think the challenge site said to pause at the top for a couple of seconds before releasing. Are you all doing that? I think I will end up doing fewer that way, but I will try it. I am going to do the initial test this morning and then try to do day one this afternoon. I am also doing the push ups again. Looking forward to it!
