    I feel like I'm missing something.

    I've been doing about 200 crunches a day for the past three weeks, sometimes more, but 200 average. I used to split them up in 4 sets of 25 in the a.m. while Im at the gym, and the other 100 I do at night after 30 day shred (actually more than 200 since 30 day shred have crunches in there also).

    Anyway....is everyone doing 30 for the day and thats it? I'm trying to figure out where it says DAY 1 for 30 crunches, is that 30 everytime you do crunches that day or just 30 TOTAL for the day?

    I feel stupid asking this, just want to make sure. thanks.

    pannellkat,

    They mean a total of 30 for the day, hopefully all at once.

    I didn't look at your photos so I don't know how fit you are but do you find it challenging to do 200 each day? I wonder if you are doing them slightly wrong... I found them very easy until I got a trainer and she corrected me (a very slight difference in bring my chin toward the ceiling instead of toward my knees) - instantly harder!

    When I first started in february of this year, I could barely do ten without struggling and wanting to cry. I do different variations of crunches between bicycle crunches to reverse crunches to regular crunches and I'm very big on "form" or at least watching my form. There have been times where I caught myself extending my neck or using my neck to lift and then I will correct myself. I do find it challenging yes of course...but I feel stronger and more educated on form than I did a few months ago when I started. My bff is a trainer at 24 hour fitness, I'm meeting up with her this weekend, I think I will have her check out those crunch forms just in case lol.

    I'm going to join if its not too late! I guess I'll just be a bit behind.

    It's never too late! I started a 30 day squat challenge half way into it! it is better to start late than never :)

    Hi, it's funny I came across this post, as the other day one of my mfp friends had a post about her stomach being a big issue for her and she mentioned seeing as she was a part of a 30 day squat challenge if anyone would be interested in starting a 30 day crunch challenge and I immediately said yes count me in as thats my problem area as well, I had mentioned that she should start the challenge seeing as she suggested it, but I have been waiting for her to start the challenge and she hasn't so I am quite happy to come across this post, I will also tell my MFP friend about this as well, maybe she will join in. So yes count me in!!!
    I will try to knock out day 1 and 2 today, then do day 3 tomorrow, so I won't be too far behind.

    I'll give it a shot....Although I may include some oblique crunches and lower ab ones....Sounds like a neat idea.
