10-Year-Old Girl Does 2,110 Sit-ups in 90 Minutes, Sets New National Record | Oddity Central - Collecting Oddities

While most adults struggle to keep their bulging bellies under check, 10-year-old Kyleigh Bass, from Kansas City is putting grown men to shame with her rock solid abs – she recently broke the national record by completing a whopping 2,110 consecutive sit-ups in a mere 90 minutes.

Kyleigh had initially set herself a goal of 2,002 ab-crunches – one over the previous Project Fit America record of 2,001. It was no easy feat, and for a moment it even looked as though she was going to throw up, but she somehow worked through the nausea and surpassed her goal, breaking the record by no less than 109 sit-ups.
 
“It’s a mind thing. If you think about it, you can do it and you’ll make it.”

Wise words indeed from a 10 year old. She rocks!
 
To be totally honest I'm a bit torn about things like this. I can't say anything about this one case but in general. Of course it's great to have kids keeping in shape. That I got no problem with. It's just as with most things some take it too far. There were this kid bodybuilder a few years back that got famous. I don't know how things are with him nowadays but he scared me. Kids will take after their parents values in big parts and passing down a healthy lifestyle is a good thing. Just please, let kids be kids and let body and mind develop at the right pace.
