push-ups: do push-ups for 1 minute. Do them so your nose would hit the stair as you come down and count how many times your nose hits the stair. Then do it again in 6 weeks--you will amaze yourself again!
wall squat: do a squat with your back against a wall and your arms straight out in front of you. And I mean a 90 degree squat--get your legs parallel to the ground! But make sure your knees stay behind your toes. Time yourself, and do it again in 6 weeks.
sit-ups: do old school sit-ups for 2 minutes with your arms crossed over your chest. It only counts when your elbows touch your thighs!
*If you have diastasis recti you should not perform the sit-ups or push-ups.

I like this, I wish I would have done it before I started the shed 5 fast workout, but I can already tell my push ups are a lot easier to do.
it's amazing how fast your body adapts to what you make it do. and really, i have found you can do SO much more than you think if you push yourself just enough. so these tests are great to see progress.
Great blog!
I love basics and the pushup is my favorite right next to jumping jacks.
