Google sit-up, situps or sit up and you’ll find the first 20 websites are against the sit-up. Why the hate? The majority of those sites have some product to peddle or magic pill to sell. A few references are good and provide substantive caution regarding sit-ups and crunches. I include a variety of sit-up forms [...]

September and October have proven to be a nice fusion of Triathlon (primarily running) and CrossFit, much like late Summer races into early Fall. Have been solo on the CrossFit WOD’s. Am missing my Lincoln CrossFit box greatly, but due to budget limitations, have to get the WOD’s done at home and the YMCA. I [...]

Angie is a nice, no sense workout that requires minimal equipment (pull up bar). This heart pounder involves 100 continuous reps of pull-ups, push ups, squats (air) and situps. I took my first pass at a Droid recording and subsequent Power Director video edits. So my disclaimer, this ain’t polished. Of benefit in reviewing this [...]

So many fun new torturous routines in Crossfit’s Workout in the Day. The emphasis on each one is 1) anaerbobic burst 2) whole body movement and 3) time. A new one today for the Bellevue University Cross Fit was a Tabata . In 20 minutes someone moves through 4 routines, with a 20 second on [...]
