Here We Go With The Two Hundred Sit-Ups Plan

Posted by Steve ()

January 1st saw the successful launch of the Two Hundred Sit-Ups Challenge and initial feedback suggests there’s quite a buzz about the six-week plan already. Great news and if the challenge turns out to be half as successful as the Hundred Push Ups plan, I’ll be a happy man.

Naturally I’m taking the challenge too and therefore did the initial test over the weekend. I made it fairly comfortably to 80 consecutive good-form sit ups before calling it a day and moving on to another day of the Jillian Michaels – 30 Day Shred workout.

Anyway, back to the sit-ups. The initial test of 80 put me right in at Week 3 Day 1 Column 3 (see below) – 5 sets of sit-ups with a 60 second rest period between each set.

Here’s what I needed to do:

Required:21 27 21 21 (at least) 30

Actual:21 27 21 21 30

Towards the end of each set I could definitely feel the burn, but the 60 seconds rest was just long enough to recover and prepare for the next set.

All in all a good workout and a perfect compliment to the Hundred Push Ups challenge which I recently completed for the third time.

I’m right where you are…week 3, column 3. Good luck to both of us!

Steve–I’m down with the cause, bro. Just one question: Can you work on a “hundred chin-ups” or “hundred pull-ups” program for the second half of the year?
