crunches vs sit-ups

Hello Mr. Kurz,

since sit-ups and deadlifts should not be done in the same workout I prefer to do crunches.
Now i am wondering how many crunches equal 500 sit-ups?
Could you please post a link to a safe and useful neck bridge routine for MA?

Thank you for your answer.

How to fix a strenght imbalance?

Dear Mr. Kurz,

doing single-leg squats on my left leg is much easier than on my right leg. Also there is a 1 cm difference in the circumference of my thighs (weaker leg is smaller)

How can I fix that?



Thank you, best regards
