00:04.730 --> 00:06.841
The one minute setup is an assessment

00:06.841 --> 00:08.841
of core endurance . Begin by laying

00:08.841 --> 00:11.140
face up on the floor or mat . Your feet

00:11.140 --> 00:13.251
may extend off the floor or mat , but

00:13.251 --> 00:15.307
your buttocks , shoulders , and head

00:15.307 --> 00:18.569
must not extend beyond the mat . Bend

00:18.569 --> 00:20.791
your knees at 90 degrees with your feet

00:20.791 --> 00:22.902
or heels in contact with the floor at

00:22.902 --> 00:25.013
all times . Cross your arms over your

00:25.013 --> 00:27.125
chest with your open hands or fingers

00:27.125 --> 00:29.347
at your shoulders or rest on your upper

00:29.347 --> 00:31.569
chest . This is the starting position .

00:31.700 --> 00:33.811
When conducting sit-ups , any part of

00:33.811 --> 00:35.978
the hands or fingers remain in contact

00:35.978 --> 00:38.033
with the shoulders or upper chest at

00:38.033 --> 00:39.811
all times . You may request the

00:39.811 --> 00:41.922
assessor to hold your feet with their

00:41.922 --> 00:44.144
hands or by putting their knees on your

00:44.144 --> 00:46.311
feet . The assessor may not anchor you

00:46.311 --> 00:45.799
by holding behind the calves or by

00:45.799 --> 00:47.632
standing on your feet during the

00:47.632 --> 00:49.966
assessment . From the starting position ,

00:49.966 --> 00:51.855
raise your upper torso until your

00:51.855 --> 00:53.855
elbows touch your knees or thighs .

00:53.855 --> 00:56.021
Then lower your upper torso until your

00:56.021 --> 00:55.990
shoulder blades contact the floor .

00:56.169 --> 00:58.819
This is one repetition . Your elbows

00:58.819 --> 01:00.986
must touch your knees or thighs at the

01:00.986 --> 01:03.097
top of the sit-up , and your shoulder

01:03.097 --> 01:05.319
blades must contact the floor or mat at

01:05.319 --> 01:04.980
the bottom of the sit-up . The

01:04.980 --> 01:07.202
repetition will not count if your hands

01:07.202 --> 01:09.258
or fingers come completely away from

01:09.258 --> 01:11.202
the chest or shoulder , or if your

01:11.202 --> 01:13.258
buttocks or heels leave the ground .

01:13.258 --> 01:15.313
Additionally , you may not grab onto

01:15.313 --> 01:14.970
your shirt as it makes it difficult to

01:14.970 --> 01:17.192
determine if you are maintaining proper

01:17.192 --> 01:19.303
contact . While resting , you may not

01:19.303 --> 01:21.248
use knees or any object to support

01:21.248 --> 01:23.192
yourself . If there is any resting

01:23.192 --> 01:25.192
other than in the up position , the

01:25.192 --> 01:24.889
sit-up portion of the assessment is

01:24.889 --> 01:27.111
terminated and your score will be based

01:27.111 --> 01:28.945
on the correct number of sit-ups

01:28.945 --> 01:31.056
performed up to that point . You have

01:31.056 --> 01:33.167
one minute to perform as many correct

01:33.167 --> 01:35.333
sit-ups as you are able . Your counter

01:35.333 --> 01:37.167
will count the correct number of

01:37.167 --> 01:39.389
sit-ups allowed . Your counter will not

01:39.389 --> 01:41.556
count incorrect sit-ups . Your counter

01:41.556 --> 01:43.722
will tell you what you are doing wrong

01:43.722 --> 01:43.290
and will repeat the last number of

01:43.290 --> 01:45.401
correct sit-ups until you correct the

01:45.401 --> 01:45.150
error .
