100 day burpee challenge
- Thread starter reed11b
- Start date
Day 7: 20 for giggles. (33 straight yesterday). Needs work.
Solid, I find keeping my legs wider in the drop to the ground helps smooth out and quicken the back to feet; shortens the 'upstroke' if you will. I was holding off for a few days to try and time the buy in set and complete my 28 in a set time.
Ugh sick, 8 burpees.

8 today. 25 extra. So far all my 3 boys and 1 of their friends are keeping up (ages 7, 9, 9, 12).
Proper form now will make it easier later. Poor form now will not strengthen you and may cause injury.
Hint: don't wear a frickin' huge dive watch while doing this. D'oh!

It's an excellent article about scaling - you don't have to log into FB to see it. I checked.

Since I am home on Con Leave yet not supposed to be doing any physical training I decided I couldn't go another day without doing something so I tried burpees today. 34 was all I could muscle out...
These were a lot easier to do when I had two calves and knees... (sigh)

Sigh... 40+ hours of driving in the last 5 days + a funeral service and time with friends and a cold (thank you, Troll) - I'm a couple days behind... - sigh... just added them up - gots to do 46 to catch up. Might have to spread it out over 2 days.

Catching up: 46 burpees.
Even though I completely stand behind my avatar, my wife (who truly has a love/hate relationship with burpees) and I are in. Obviously a late start, so we will play some catch up over the next couple of days so we hit our 5050 total the same day everyone else does. We should be caught up to everyone else by Friday.
Day 15: 42 burpees (15+14+13). What is the largest number of burpees you have ever done in one set?

100 in the SFQC but that was 8 years ago... wow the time sure flies.
With that, and since my Physical Therapist isn't here to stop me, I am in too. Today I mustered out 43 but it took quite a while longer than it should. OMG I had forgotten how much I hated this damn exercise.
((X_sf: Not ratting me out to Kelly...especially since LL is in and I haven't seen you post in here yet.))
