We did the bodyweight 500 today and the competition drove it to a new PR. Peter flew in at 12:28, I came in just behind at 12:32. I’m pretty confident that now that we’ve done it that way it can be pushed below 10 minutes. The goal of this routine is to be able to move through all of the movements with no stopping, no breaking up sets. Right now the trouble is with pull ups and rows. I complete the first set but get stuck at 10 pulls and 15 rows the second time around. I’m almost tempted to make this a daily ritual…
Anyway… BEHOLD! THE POWER OF THE BURPEE!!!
TAKE THE 100 BURPEE CHALLENGE AND WIN AT LIFE.
Your form will invariably suffer,I’ve found the stretch of 30-70 to really not be fun. The first 30 is all optimistic “I’m going to get a PR” territory… Then the “Oh, this…I forgot about this…” in the 30-50 session, Followed by “Why am I doing this again?” in the 50-70 range. 70-100 is all lactic build up, mental toughness and seeing the finish line on the horizon.
