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 a day – no need to really push it any further.
So, Monday morning soon arrives and it’s time for Week 5, Day 1 – 5 sets of crunches with 60 seconds recovery time between each set.
Required: 54, 60, 45, 36, at least 60
Actual: 54, 60, 45, 36, 100
No problems today, and no real burn until I got to about 65 in the final 100.
Day 2 looks slightly tougher with several extra sets built in to the plan. Wednesday’s workout should be interesting…
