Regarding sit ups, not sure why you'd be doing those at all. They are old school and really would only benefit your hips, NOT your abs as some would like to believe. They could also damage your back.

This is not a bad thing if this is what you want, and being in the military, this is what their training is geared toward. -------------- Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer

I didn't realize that they still did the PT tests, I thought that the required exercise regimine thing was over after basic. Good luck! Stick your toes under your bedroom door and sit up until you are blue in the face. You'll get the hang of it. ha ha.
