Here are the full details of the Warrior Sit Up Challenge: http://woldfitness.com/2010/05/warrior-sit-up-challenge-whats-your-score/
If you really want to burn your stomach, try the Warrior Sit Up Challenge.
You'll improve both core strength and endurance at a record pace.
Here's how to do a Warrior Sit Up: 1. Lie on your back with your arms overhead and your legs out straight
2. Sit up, bring your knees to your chest, and hug around your shins
3. Stretch back out to the start position
4. Repeat
(Note: Don't count any reps where you don't return all of the way back to start position!)
The Warrior Sit Up Challenge is a test to see how many reps you can do in 3 minutes.
Here's a scoring chart to rate your performance (from the MOST EXCELLENT book Ultimate Warrior Workouts: Fitness Secrets of the Martial Arts by my main man Martin Rooney)
