    30 upper 20 lower
    i had a hard time today but i'm glad i did some

    plus my regular work out i think that is what gets me when i finally do my crunches
  • Okay, so this sounds ridiculously high, but last night I did an ab DVD workout that included all different types of crunches for every part of the abs. When I counted every crunch, it came to a total of 384 crunches -- really!! Needless to say, I don't do abs every day :tongue:

    Thanks, PegM! This DVD works all different sections of the abs throughout the workout, so I think that helps with the soreness -- it's not all in one spot!

    This sounds like an awesome DVD that I need. What's it called? No additional crunches for me yet this week. I am going to do some during the comercial breaks during Grey's tonight.

    I am totally impressed with how many crunches everyone is doing.

    I did 100 crunches last night. Also ran a 5k on the treadmill and did 35 minutes on the elliptical. I was going to do a base 5k today.... but it is WAY to cold to run outside, so I will have to be ambitious later tonight.

    It's part of an overall strength training DVD by Cathe called Hardcore Series: Muscle Max. The DVD allows you customize your workout, so if you only want to do abs, you can go right to that part of the DVD or if you only want to do upper body one day and lower body another day, you can do that as well. I think you can only order it from her website [http://www.cathe.com/], but it's a really awesome DVD. She uses heavier weights than what I use, but regardless of which weights you use, it's a super workout. If you have access to the FIT TV cable channel, you could check her out there. Her various workouts are part of their programming.

    Another abs tape that I love, love, love, is Tamilee Webb's Abs of Steel. It has three 15-minute ab workouts. It's an old video, so I'm not sure you can get it anymore, but it's one of my favorites that, again, hits all ab areas. Best wishes, and enjoy Grey's!

    I finally got a few crunches in last night. Only 35 but it is better than nothing. I was pretty sore from the gym the night before. I also did 10 pushups. I am going to try and keep up on the crunches and pushups. I'm also down 1.6 lbs this week. Best week since I joined MFP. I am hopeing to be saying goodbye to the 220's next week. Congrats to all the losers and those who stayed the same and even if you gained a bit. Hope you all have a great weekend!

    I gained 1 lb this week. But, from what I can tell, it's water weight. I am hopefull the downward trend will resume this week.
