Even though they're not "proper" ones.

If they had to be proper ones my total would be 0.

Well done Columba and you too Dave, glad the person that started it all made the target :-)

Just been ticking over for the last couple of weeks and eventually ended up with a nice round 16,250 for the year. Back to zero though tomorrow!

Well done to all that managed to complete the challenge, and then some!

Thanks for coming up with the idea Dave, enjoy it all over again next year. :)

Blimey, 16,250 for the year is some going.

I finally got over 1000 for a month in December, for a 2018 total of 8590 (and three times as many sit ups). Guess I'll be doing the same next year, I quite like this challenge.

Oranj, my target for 2019 is around a combined total of press-ups and sit-ups. Your 2018 sit-up total is very impressive! For me press-ups are a lot easier than sit-ups, so I clearly have stuff to work on!

Ah I see, I find sit-ups easier so I do 30 every time I do 10 press-ups. I do some lying-on-the-floor twisting exercises to complement them so my back/pelvis doesn't get too stressed.

I used to have decent upper body strength but then I switched from doing triathlons to pure running ...
