Re: 200 situps

initially 81...

They're a lot harder than they used to be
I like the motivation from these threads lol

Updates:

Starting Week One
Day one: finished on 15. I dont think the situps before hand helped, i think i will copy Steve_God and do the pushups and situps on alternate days

Re: 200 situps

I didn't do the initial test, but I know I can do at least 50 at a time anyway, because I do 4 sets of 50 every day.

Starting on week 1 anyway, and am going to do this alongside the push-ups one :p

Hey Souls, you should add an overview of everyone's progress on your initial post like Darksider has done in the pushups one ;)

Re: 200 situps

Need to sleep now, so will do these tomorrow. Never actually tried out my limit with situps but usually have done 100 relatively slow ones without pause each day for the last X years.

Re: 200 situps

got to 100 then stopped, did the first 30 really quick then started to slow up, could have kept going but it was painfully slow, and far too much effort...

Re: 200 situps

I'd join you if I hadn't already made my own abs workout plan. But my gf is doing this, and in a month or two we'll see who chose the better program ;)

But it's definitely a good addition for the push ups program. Just add in some squats (and hang ups/chin ups if you got access to a bar) and you got yourself a whole body workout.

Just done day 1 of week 3.

5th set, 58 sits up. But my neck started to hurt at about 50. So im assuming since then those sits ups were wrong. So lets say 50. :)

Updates (Starting from week 3 - All figures are the one on the last set.)
day 1: 58
day 2: 43
day 3: 54
day 4: 48
