    Well, I pushed through day 2. Much more difficult today than Monday. It's funny because I can barely feel these while I'm doing them, but the next day I'm like "oooowwwww". Anyway did 126, woohoo! I measure myself Sun. so I wonder if it will make any diff yet... Good luck to all of you. And thanks sunsh1ne for motivating us all on this

    That's great! Looking forward to your next check in. :smile: haha not quite looking forward to my workout tomorrow, though. Good thing we're all holding each other accountable!

    Well did day 3. Whoo. Definitely gets harder as you go along doesn't it? I did 169 today (that's 102 in the set then maxed out at 67). I'm going to do Week 3 again next week, but I realize this targets nothing but the upper/mid ab region. So I'm going to try it next week on the lower abs by doing reverse crunches and alternate between the two to get a "full" ab workout.
    This link shows how to reverse crunch.

    It says this isn't good if you have lower back issues, but I find that putting a small pillow under my lower back, I feel no pain, and my lower back seems to get stronger with this exercise too.

    Ive been avoiding this thread because I was afraid I was the only one missing days. I missed wednesday, so I might just do double duty tonight. My abs will be angry with me but I think I might be able to handle it.

    I'm playing crunch hookey today (and work hookey) 'cause I woke up with a fever. Don't worry if you miss a day, we're all human. :smile:

    is it too late to get in on this? i carry my weight around my middle, but never really have that much trouble losing belly fat. this sounds so do-able for me.

    I did two work outs today. I went with column two for one and then column three for another work out since I missed two this week. I am feeling it. It's funny how your tummy sinks in when your doing sit ups...

    Ended up doing today anyway and I'm shocked, because I managed 30 on my exhaustion round, and overcounted on my other rounds, so I did a total of 103 crunches today! I'm already feeling the results and it's got me kind of giddy. How's it coming for you guys?

    I'm starting week 2 today - I over-indulged a little too much with mexican food and margaritas last night so I'm definatley not in the mood, but know I have to do it! I have to work this morning and I'm going to spend those 4 hours re-hydrating myself so I'm ready to tackle my workout when I get home this afternoon. I also start the 2nd week of C25k and the push-up challenge today too - it's gonna be a doosey!! :happy:

    I just did my initial test and did 50. I think I could've done more, but it was a challenge to get that far. I'm excited to start week one on Monday!
