50 Day Update...Day 2.

Here's more about the 50 Day Challenge:

BAMF CavePeeps!!!

An important ingredient to being more in touch with our ancestors is...

MOVEMENT...

So this challenge is going to be used twofold.

First - it's a great workout that requires NO EQUIPMENT.
Second - we're going to use it as a baseline and return to it down the road as a measure of progress.

You're goal is to get as many burpees in 5 minutes... so, get a timer or a friend who can time you (heck maybe they will want to go 2nd) and count your reps watch this video for the standards and keep yourself to those standards every rep...

Now - You and I are adults and know no one is watching but cutting corners and cheating range of motion will add up to a LOSS OF FITNESS down the road.

'Nuff said...

Now.. you have 24 hours to get this done and post it on the Cavepage...

Oh yeah - get used to writing stuff down... studies show the actual act of recording what you do affect the outcome.

So post your score (this is a game-is right?) and then journal it.

Also - what is your THEME SONG?

Here's mine:

Burpees, really?  Yuck., even though my burpees are better, still Yuck!  I haven't done them since my shoulder is sore.  I'm not about to do burpees for 5 minutes and make my shoulder worse....I don't want it to interfere more than it already does with my regular workouts.

Speaking of regular workouts, Brent, our trainer, did evaluations and made videos of everyone doing 16 or 17 different exercises.  He reviewed mine today...what a great thing to see...don't get me wrong it wasn't pretty, but I learned a lot from it.

After we reviewed the evaluation and realizing how much more work I have to do as far as form and intensity, I decided to put more focus on that and less on my diet.  I have been so obsessed with diet that and it seems to be working against me.  I KNOW everything I need to do, at this point the way and what I eat should just come natural to me. Its worth a shot.
