Today's challenge is: Windshield Washer
Let's see if we can do 75 of them.
These look tough to me so lets take it easy and see what we can do.
This is a lower abdominal/oblique that was requested earlier in the week.
Post back on how many you do so I can set the goal more appropriatly next time we do these. If you can do more than 75 please do them this time and let me know.
Also, each side is considered one for counting purposes.
You have until midnight to get them done.
You can do them all at once or break them into smaller groups.
If you can't do them all then do what you can. The important thing is that you try to do them.
Make sure you stretch and have fun doing them.
Report back when you are done and let us know how you did.
You can log these challenges as "Calisthenics" I hear.

If you want to make it harder, hold a barbell above your chest with arms at extension (although not locked) and straighten the legs.0

I'm gonna try! It looks like they will lead to very sore obliques!0

They look... horrible. But I'm going to try them anyway as my core muscles are really weak and I think I need to get some exercises like this in to strengthen them!0

Glad I made someone laugh! I just want to know - I saw 2 different versions - are you supposed to keep your legs straight or bend them? or do you just do it how it's more comfy?0 -

Bent is the beginner variation. Make sure you keep your shoulders to the floor.
To increase difficulty if you find them easy, straighted legs.
To increase difficulty if that is easy, add barbell.
Then add more weight, etc...0 -
Alright, I'm in! I'll see how many I can do!!0

I'm in. I'll give er a try!0
