in Motivation and Support
Alright girls here is the thread!! It was a lot easier than I though, hehe

Here is the link to the challenge website: http://www.twohundredsitups.com/

I think everyone who joins should post their result from the 'initial test'. Then we can check in as we do the work outs and say how many we were able to do.

Either way this is a thread where we can support each other and cheer each other on!

    I'll do it with you!! I'm not sure when I'll actually start, though. This is the busiest time of the week for me.

    Thanks Cris. I'm tagging for later.

    How do you do that???

    If you post, then it puts it in My Topics so you can find it easier. As there are new posts, it puts it at the top of your My Topics.

    Can I join? I am planning to start the couch to 5 K next week and was also going to do the 100 pushups and 200 situps. :) I'll do my initial test this weekend - should be rather amusing results :laugh:

    Hi Chris,
    So excited about this challenge :bigsmile: thanks for getting us imvolved.
    I just did my initial test and was able to do
    45 sit ups
    They say then that I should start in the 3rd column of the week 3 regimen.
    Was actually shocked I could do so many.:drinker:

    Of course, my fiance, the endurance athlete, breezed through about 80 and then said I'm bored, can I stop now :grumble:
    maybe one day that will be us!!

    I've been doing crunches in the moring when I stretch out after my elliptical workout. I've been doing either 3 or 4 sets of 25 but I didn't think I was doing all that well. Tonight when I took the test I did 89 without stopping:noway: ! I can't help but suspect I wasn't really focued on the right muscle set so I'm going to wait till morning and see if when I do them on carpet (was on the hardwood floor tonight) if my abs are sore. If not I'll retake the test...

    Have a great night! :yawn: I'm off to bed so I can get my 7 hours of beauty sleep :blushing:

    I re-took the test this AM and focused on my form and still got in 79! It seems those sets I do while I stretch out have been working! I'm so excited to be 'GOOD' at something LOL!
