    I will! Hate these things but a flat abdomen is what Im working for...better get to liking them I guess!
    Unfortunately doing 200 crunches a day will not give you a flat stomach... moving is always better than not moving, but if your goal is to get a flat core, this is not the way to go about it I'm afraid.

    Whoa, people! Please do not do 200 crunches a day unless you want to put great shearing forces on your lumbar spine!!!! Crunches = bad!

    Sorry.

    I'm assuming you are all wishing for flatter, tighter, more toned tummies? This is what you do:

    1) Eat a clean diet - ABS ARE MADE IN THE KITCHEN
    2) If you want to do exercises to work your abs - work your entire core - planks are one great core exercise - pull-ups also work your core.

    In general, lift heavy weights and work your WHOLE body as muscle helps burn fat. I got a six pack without a single sit-up. And you can too!

    Sorry if I just rained on your parade! :flowerforyou: Good luck to you all.

    If you want to get flatter abs, you're better off climbing 200 stairs a day, than 200 crunches.

    Yay I'm in too ! I do 250 abs crunches everyday but they are not only situps. I'll try the test tomorrow (it's 3:30am in Paris, time to sleep !).

    I want to join too because my classes start again Monday and I feel that I will get discouraged and distracted, This will help me stay on track. =)

    Btw, I know they don't help with abs if you still have flab, but they at least get my heart rate up and they will keep me wanting to stay on track.

    I'm in & have posed it to my friends on facebook as well. :) I hit 20 in my initial test. Could have stopped around 17, but pushed to get those final 3!!!! Looking forward to adding this to my dailies!!
