Two Hundred Sit-Ups
Two Hundred Sit-Ups Week 6 Day 3
Week 6 Day 3 – the final workout of the Two Hundred Sit-Ups challenge. I made it through to the end with no real problems and probably could have done more at the end if my life depended on it.
Required: 39, 39, 50, 50, 39, 39, 33, 33, at least 105
Actual: 39, 39, 50, 50, [...]

A few extra sets thrown in for good measure today which made the workout slightly more challenging. To hurry things through, I also lowered the recovery time to 30 seconds between sets. Good workout and nice to [...]
Two Hundred Sit-Ups Week 5 Day 1
Over the course of the weekend I performed the end-of-week-four exhaustion test to determine which column I’d be following in Week 5. After knocking out a straight 100 in several of the previous workouts, I was sure column 3 would be the one for me. I managed 110 sit-ups during the test before calling it [...]
Two Hundred Sit-Ups Week 4 Day 3

Required: 45 50 45 45 at least 60
Actual: 45 50 45 45 100
Not bad though – 285 sit-ups in [...]
