Rep Power: 31 | | *waves back* Howdy!
I usually do my sit-ups 15 at a time, when I get really tired I do 10 at a time. It takes me about 10-15 minutes to get them all done. I am certainly not speedy at them.
I use a machine so there's no pressure on my neck at all--otherwise I wouldn't do them. But I know that you can sit on the edge of your bed, feet flat on the floor, cross your arms around your chest and do your sit-ups that way--no pain at all! Exercises for today:
172 calories burned on the bike
60 rotary torso
150 sit-ups
75 abductions
60 adductions
75 lower back
Heehee, I only did 75 because I can't add! Instead of counting straight to 60 I counted on the 15's....and I thought there were 5 15's to = 60. Haha. You'd never think that my husband is a math teacher! |

Rep Power: 31 | | | It's actually really really comfortable. You just sit in it and put your elbows on the pads, put your feet under the leg pads---then you sit-up! No pain on the neck, no trying to keep your feet on the floor, as much as I'm sick of sit-ups it makes them really easy!
I know ya'll will think I'm crazy but Oprah says she does 300 sit-ups a day...I don't think I could ever do that but 150 is pretty darned good.
Off to go weigh myself on the GNC scale (I call it the official scale)--wish me luck! My scale said 174.5 this morning! |

Rep Power: 51 | | | I did 150 on Thursday! Plan to do the same this morning. I do them on the floor, but I alternate. I have 5 different ways of doing them, 15 reps of each. Then I do it again. 6 pack, here we come! |
