- 25 basic crunches
- 25 scissors
- 50 crossover crunches
Hmmm... basic crunches I know but scissors and crossover crunches? Not sure... are scissors just scissoring your legs back and forth? Are crossover crunches just side to side when you raise up from the mat... another way of saying twists, or oblique crunches? I decided to do some investigating....
It seems that the term 'scissors' applies to a variety of moves... and crossover crunches can be done a few different ways as well.
Then I recalled that Ali was going to do some investigating as well and share her findings... so I went to her current post and there she is, cute as ever, in a vlog demonstrating the moves as she knows them.
Thanks, Ali, I will use your interpretation of these moves too. Very helpful.
And there is a 4 mile run on our half marathon training schedule today... the first 3.1 (5k) of which, will be our entries into Jess's Jelly Bean virtual race. This was the first virtual race that I did last year when I first started blogging and found out about virtual races.
If you are a virtual race fan, check it out.
Are you signed up for the Jelly Bean? Which events are you entering?
Any awesome April goals?
I'm signed up to do both the 10K and 5K for the Jelly Bean...yipes!

Oh and I am SO HAPPY that the jellybean has biking - I'm going to do that instead!
I am doing the Jellybean too! First time! I think, with my mileage this week, I'll hit all of the distances and I added in a bike ride yesterday too!
ReplyDeleteI am doing the Jelly Bean as well! I think I will do all the races. I don't think I will do the bike though. Who knows! Good luck on your April Abs and Arms!
