    Count me in! Love a good fitness challenge! Mix it up for fun - try 25 crunches on a stability ball, 25 reverse crunches (one of my faves), 25 full body crunches and 25 standing ab crunches (with a 5 or 8 weight for a good challenge) and done!

    Done. I'm so out of practice with doing any sort of exercise I had to look up "crunches workout" so I could remember how to do them. *laughs*

    I don't know why not, Julie! :D

    Sterling - no worries!

    I did a bunch of different ones. Don't know what they're called (athlete that I am), but got my hundred in. LOL

    Who's got an idea for tomorrow's challenge?

    These are the things that come to mind right now:
    Squats
    Calf raises
    Lunges
    Planks
    Push ups
    Tricep dips
    ?? mile walk/run

    Just throwing out some ideas that I think most people could do (aka no equipment).

    Yes... new one every day, but I forgot to post one today. LOL!

    Great suggestions, Tonya! Let's do 100 squats tomorrow... I'll repost in a new thread in the morning :)
