flyingfinn Nov 2019 10:47am, 28 Nov 2019 1,372 posts	0 flyingfinn Passed my 20,000 target during November so stretched it to 22,000 to help me get to my combined press-up and sit-up target of 50,000. Also trying to get to 8500 single leg deadlifts for the year, an exercise that has done wonders for my glutes. Adding in other exercises like the plank and more chin-ups is the other plan for 2020, rather than increasing the PU and SU volumes. As I head in to my late 50s I see this conditioning as being increasingly key to maintaining my running, particularly off road.

Wriggling Snake Nov 2019 10:09pm, 28 Nov 2019 24,788 posts	0 Wriggling Snake I tend to alternate sit ups and planks....sit ups at 4x50, planks 6x60s currently.
