Kit said...

jason, if you're saying that workout isn't bad, you clearly didn't do it fast enough...yeah, what, i said it. and you can thank the Marine Corps for those absurd amounts of situps.

Jeff said...

Kit, the workout could not have been that hard, you were about 4 minutes faster than me. Maybe you should have thrown a few thousand more situps in?

Oh, okay, it sucked big time.

Tim P said...

Daaahhhmmm, Jeff is getting fiesty. In my opinion the amount of situps was not absurd but just kinda dumb because it didn't really flow with the "heavy metcon" of the workout. Oh well though it certainly was a changeup. I wonder if the mainpage would like it, or if they would rather like to it it with 50 situps to keep it moving quicker. Any thoughts...

Tim P said...

PS- Doesn't matter though, my abs are on fire just like the rest of you. Awesome work everyone that stuck thru this one.

Ray said...

Bummer. I wanted to give this a shot, but I was enlisted to take the family out to dinner. A man has got to know his priorities to keep the ladies happy.

That nun outfit is awesome, and I am sure it was comfy for "Wolverine"!

I am going to try something like it at home here this morning. My "gut" tends to agree with you Tim. 50 for 6 rounds sounds more balanced and it is still a boat load of sit ups.

Awesome job Jeff....and everyone else who endured this! At least I now know that 600 sit ups can be done on 48+ year old abs!!

JZuck said...

Aimee - my time is not listed. I don't know what it was, but I remember doing the workout, it sucked.

Aimee Lyons said...

JZ- good call, I knew I saw you there....33:43, it's been updated :)

Jason Lyons said...

saying it is not bad may not be what i meant. anything you do for 79 straight minutes of high intensity work sucks. i meant to say that i could do the runs and pull-ups easily and my favorite part was double grace but if you look at my times on this thing, i got CRUSHED by the sit-ups. double grace is probably 15 minutes and 120 pull-ups is probably 15 minutes. the running is probably 15 minutes so i spent almost 35 minutes doing sit-ups. that is horrific and i guess it points to an absolute weekness.

so when i say it was not bad, i mean that i spent so much time doing sit-ups that i was able to recover mostly everything before then. the thing that i could not recover was ab work. they were shot.
