Oh man, those weighted sit ups are a lot harder after the leg raises and plank pike. My time was 11:03.
Sara: 6:48. Agreed Kelly - they were so much harder than I expected!
Phil - 10:56, My weight was a gym bag full of books, not sure how much it weighed
Kim - 9:48, 1 Gallon of Plaster:)
Lily, my daughter, did this with me. She did it with 10 pounds in 7:30. I did it in 5:55. The weighted sit ups were the hardest.
I got this in 10:58
I did it in 4:18, but I only had (2) 8-lb dumbells, so 16 lbs on the sit-ups.

8:12...I enjoyed the variety in this ab challenge. I pulled together an assortment of dumbells and came up with 26 lbs.
10:40, but I only used 10 lb. dumbbells. Jayanne
11:30, but I had to improvise a bit. I don't have an exercise ball and I didn't know how to do the plank pike without one, so I did the modified ab roller that Scott showed me the other day. I also have no weights so I also filled a gym bag with books, but only about 15lbs. Still tough for me though!
7:37 those weights did hurt!
