Butterfly Sit Ups Novels & Stories

Cole said, from somewhere to my left, in the voice of someone struggling. "Mira's form is immaculate by the way," Mark said. "Genuinely impressive." Three minutes and the buzzer went. I heard Connie exhale hard through her nose as she stood and I said nothing about it. Wall sit was where it started getting serious. Backs flat, thighs parallel, the burn arriving faster than the plank and sitting deeper. Thirty seconds in it was already personal. One minute in it was a conversation between you and your own legs about who was actually in charge.

I asked worriedly. "No, I just want to be able to impress her." "You've gotta be kidding me. All of this intense workout for one woman." "She's not just any woman, Ben; she's going to be my wife one day." "How much longer are you gonna be?" I sighed. "After this plank, I'm done." "How long is the plank gonna be for?" "Ten minutes." "Wow..... So what have you done?" "Five hundred squats with the sandbag did one hundred bicep curls and one hundred triceps extensions, eight hundred sit-ups, one thousand push-ups, and now a ten-minute plank."

“Just thirty more seconds and you can take a break.” He pressed the back of his head into the padded floor mat and clenched his jaw. Then he focused on the movement, which was very basic. All he had to do was straighten out his right leg and then slowly lift it up to a vertical position. Then, after holding it there for three seconds, he was to bring it back down and start all over. He'd been doing it for a while, though, and combined with the bicycling and weights they'd already done, he was beat.

Zach knelt before her and laid his hands on her shoulders, gently pushing her down to lay her back on the floor. Running his fingers upon her soft skin, he caressed her smooth legs to her thighs then to her knees and held them, his warm hands burning her skin. He held her knees together and looked at her position appreciatively. "Now," he said, "put your hands crossed on your chest and do sit-ups. One hundred times." Her eyebrows knitted together. "But--" "No buts," he stated firmly. She sighed and started doing sit-ups. All the while, Zach was there, counting and murmuring encouraging words to her as she groaned and grunted.

I then get her to do press-ups, sit-ups and I even go as far trying to her to do chin-ups. "Hey, I have a question" she says, sitting back up after a set of fifty sit-ups. I lift an eyebrow. "See that pillar over there?" I turn to where she points. There's even a second level of the training building, where you can go to do the weight-lifting. I've seen loads of people go up them but there's a small balcony type of thing, with five pillars beneath it. Alice is pointing to one of them. "Can you climb up it?"

She smiled patting me on the shoulder. "Ok, if this is a bit difficult for you why don't we try situps?" She suggested and I nodded in agreement "First you have to lie on your back with your knees bent Put your fingertips on the back of your ears. Your elbows should be bent and pointing out at your sides. Lift your torso as close to your thighs as possible. Do this with a smooth, steady motion, keeping your feet flat on the floor. When you’re done lifting your torso, your lower back should be off the floor. Lower your torso down to the floor so you’re back in the starting position. Like you did when you lifted your torso to your thighs, use a smooth and steady motion as you lower it down." S

I can wriggle my hands back and forth, extending my fingers that are cramping. I rub harder, pulling my hands as far apart as I can manage, delighting as I feel the strands of rope snapping and falling away. Until I can twist and wriggle one hand free, then the second. Okay. Hands free. Now my arms. I close my eyes. Gathering my energy before laying down, using my core strength to do sit ups against the outcropping.

I declared. "No you do not." He hugged back. Before I knew it, Chris and I were dangling up and down, with my thighs still clasped around his neck. That was a disadvantage but I do not give up easily. I picked myself up, I hated sit-ups but they build strong core muscles for me. I strangled him in the back with my arms and let my legs wrap around his torso. I felt him stretch me out towards my arms but I held him tighter until he fell to his knees and he knocked in submission.

She's waiting to be released. I finally managed to get the 20 push ups done and my arms were so weak afterwards. But then Ivy ordered me onto my back and we did 20 sit up but they weren't little sit ups either. She told me that we needed to sit all the way up to touch our toes. We did that 20 times and then we did 20 crunches where we didn't sit up the whole way and we just concentrated on the stomach muscles. I was already hurting and in pain and we'd only been here for 20 mintes. But after that we got on our feet and she told me to have a water break and I saw Asher and Noah walk over to see what we were up to.

There's two lines of washers and two lines of dryers with long wooden benches in the middle of the rows of machines, for people to sit on. Only, I don't sit. I walk across the benches, in bare feet, with my arms stretched out to the side. Balancing as I walk. I pause. Put my arms out in front and then bend backwards. Planting my hands on the bench behind my feet and do back flips to the other end. Then I do front flips back to where I started. I do a scissor kick and twirl. I move into a handstand. I spread my legs out into a split and turn on my hands. I bring my legs back up into the air.
