    I just saw this on the sight and checked it out....I'm TOTALLY starting this today. I asked a question earlier on the best way to get rid of my GUT....and I think this just might do it. I've always had trouble knowing if I'm doing them correctly or not tho...that's my biggest challenge. I guess if my abs are hurting tomorrow, that's a good sign. :)

    You can't spot reduce fat.

    Just a word of warning to those doing this. I would recommend doing some FULL core exercise as well or lower back specific exercise like good mornings or supermans. You want to keep you're muscle's balanced.

    Same as for anyone doing 100 pushups should also do 100 inverted rows.

    I tried to find a thread for this through the search engine, but the ones I could find were all a few months old.... So... I'm starting this programme today, if anyone wants to play along:


    http://www.twohundredsitups.com/week1.html

    I've just done week 1 day 1, column 3

    15, 18, 10, 10. 14
    If you want to see better results and save time get yourself an excerise ball and 5, 10 lb pltates to start and do weighted crunches. ( hold the plate behind your head and pause at the top) Do 4 sets twice per week. Also pick yourself an ab wheel. Its a little wheel with 2 handles and not one of these as seen on tv. gadgets. These inexpensive things will make a huge difference. Also remember abs are made in the kitchen you can get rid of belly fat that covers your abs by doing exercises.

    I'd like to start this! I just did my test and did 47. So now I'll look to see what column I start in. I want to get rid of more fat and strengthen. I know it'll make be a better and stronger runner also.
