Mike And Kathleen's Rock Off Push Up/Sit Up/Plank Down Challenge

The Challenge

Mike and Kathleen have thrown down a challenge...  Every night each of us has to attempt as many push ups, sit ups, and plank (duration) to see who is the king (or queen) of the core.  I'm not sure how long the contest runs for, or whether the winner is the person with the highest cumulative results or one time results, but you can follow along here in any case.  The goal is to do as many as possible, quantity and form are key here.

The Details
  • Order of the exercises is:
    • Push ups
    • Sit ups
    • Plank (front)
  • Each participant will perform as many of the exercises in a row as they are capable of, with no break in between (except plank, that is one continuous timed excercise)
  • For proper push up form your nose must touch the ground at the bottom and your back must stay straight the entire time
  • For proper plank form, only your elbows and one foot can touch the ground and your back must remain straight
Commentary
  • Early results show a tossup, Mike leading in Push ups and sit ups, but KK devastating the competition in planks!
