SEAL SITUP? A reader below asks, "What the hell is a Navy SEAL situp?" I'd reply using my comment feature, but it doesn't work for me. My posts just disapper into thin air. Hence, I'm replying here.

A Navy SEAL situp requires one to get into situp position -- laying on your back, knees bent. Your feet must be unsupported. Your hands are placed in "I Dream of Jeannie" crossed-arm position in front of your chest. Now, rise up to touch your elbows to your knees (or just above your knees, actually). Again, it's important that your feet are unsupported and your arms remain crossed. Come all the way up, then return all the way to the floor, no bouncing. Repeat. They're pretty tough. Way tougher than "crunches."
