How many sit ups can you do in a minute?

i can do 10 one handed ones with each arm


That would make you exceptionally strong, by exceptional I mean freak levels. Highly skilled gymnasts and rock climbers are usually the only people who can rep on one arm.

One arm pullups are regarded as one of the most impressive feats of strength there is, being able to do just one is a heck of an achievement.

If you can honestly do that many one arm pullups then I would bow down to you.

Same here, I weigh 240lbs, but cold only do 3!

If he can do 10 on each arm, I would be very impressed :cool:
 
I do sit ups five times a week and I managed 51 in 60 seconds. I'm not use to doing them quickly, but I wasn't really out of breath. As for my technique who knows, you could only really test us all equally if we were in the same place and followed the same technique.

Now, i am no fitnes freak and i dont go to the gym.
I am under the understanding that "one arm" pull ups are when you hold the bar with "one hand" and then hold that wrist with your other.

Do i have this wrong?

I can bench press 400 lbs, how much can you?.. ;) I can also deadlift nearly 500lbs, which, I would guess, despite the fact you can do more situps, would make my abdominal muscles much stronger than yours (and this goes for quite a few people who lift in this forum)

In conclusion, your the faggot :p


Ive no idea.

I dont go to the gym

But i can lift 125 kilos in a crate up to my chest.

Which is 275lbs.

Im not boasting about strenth or indeed have any idea how we got on to willy waving at all, i am JUST SAYING that AVERAGE GUYS like you, me and a lot of others can do 60 sit ups in a minute if we really go for it.

There is no boasting there.

I am 202 pounds.

The only gauge of how strong i am is i can lift my own weight over my head.

I should really quantify my statments, i dont work in an office i work in transport and from every summer holiday from when i was about 12 and then full time on from 15 i worked in a warehouse moving pallets, lamp posts, cookers, industrial Dies, Gearboxes, Engines, each and every single day for over 12 hours a day, for a lot of the time with no fork trucks or pallet trucks.

I would then once i started driving have to deliver these, again, with no forktrucks or pallet trucks.

I delivered an excercise machine once, it was in a box that was 90Kilos, i had it on my shoulder and the guy that i delivered it too couldnt even move the box let alone pick it up.

So thats 15 solid years of lifting heavy things for 12 hours a day, so its possible i might be stronger than your average man in the street.
But i doubt i am any fitter.

My Brother is the same, he went out on the lash last week and ended up challenging the bouncer at the night club to an Arm wrestle after they got talking about body building, neither of them won, but the bouncer had a good few inches of bicep over my little bro.

Impressive stuff, you must be really strong! I have a 250lbs sand bag in the garden that my dad used to shoulder and walk around with. I managed to shoulder it just now, but I don't think I could shift 275lbs.

I weight lift quite a bit, but also do a lot of carrying heavy objects, sand bags, kegs etc which I find gives you much more "real world" strength.

Im guessing you have a pretty impressive grip? My dad worked at the docks for years and can still crush my hand when he shakes it :eek: :)

I dont know.
I can pick the stuff up i have to lift, i certainly dont look anything special.
.
 
ahh i can only do about 5 pullups (with both arms lol) been doing them for a few weeks, couple of times a week, but dont seem to be moving from the 5 reps :(
 
70 is definitely possible. I could do that in fitness training at school. Press ups you can easily do 80+. You just have to be in good shape and not overweight (unfortunately i am now carrying an extra stone since i was 18 lol)
