Exercise Grind Continues

Another day of exercise. Another day of rain. Goodtimes. I actually threw some calisthenics in last night. a whole 15 pushups and 30 situps. Note to self: putting pressure on giant balloon seems like not such a good idea. Today I will study the difference between a pushup and a crunch and which one is better to do. Like how far up do you go before it is a crunch? Are crunches just something lazy people invented or are they the way to go. All this exciting news. I bet you can not wait until tomorrow.

Get one of those exercise balls for sit ups. Saves a ton of stress on your back.

Pics are not necessary. ;)

Yes - we need some photographic proof.

FWIW - crunches can be harder than sit-ups, but it's easier to cheat (i.e. only lift your head and the tops of your shoulders off the ground, as opposed to getting your shoulder blades off the mat). Crunches can be murder on your lower back, but they are a great ab workout when done correctly. I use them in rotation with regular sit-ups.

Watch the movie American Psycho.

Those are crunches Bale is doing in a couple of scenes.
