Steemit Daily 100+ Rep Fitness Challenge & Exercise Idea - Day 106

Today's exercise idea - Squat Jumps Into Stabilization

• Idea introduced by @wa2qr from India.
• Excellent for sports agility and endurance.
• Helps develop explosiveness and jump height.
• Can improve performance with exercises calling for heavy loading.
• Activates upper body while swinging arms.
• Stimulates cardio benefits.
• Can be done onto a box or raised platform.
• Can be done without stopping to stabilize, but I'm promoting this type.
• Always stretch well before exercising.

Example without a partner (not me). Please do your own research to confirm the proper mechanics.

Daily Update:

• 18 Steemians contributed 7,057 daily reps for 3/22/18. New rep high!

• Congrats to @mightpossibly for hitting his first 10,000 reps and earning 1 SBD!! A few months ago he didn't even know how to find the gym and had to work hard to reach his 100 reps. After 52 workouts from ground zero, he's consistently at the gym in the 300+ rep range. Amazing progress and determination to work through pain to turn over a new leaf. Everyone upvote him 100% today if you can. He's one of the most generous upvoters we have, so it's his day in the spotlight.

• Thanks to @belemo for returning the favor with a nice upvote yesterday.

Overall Summary:

• 277,092 overall by 42 Steemians from 11 countries in 105 workout days.
• I can only upvote so much without exhausting my voting power daily, so please help me reward their effort.

The Challenge:

At least 100 honest reps of exercise every day. No excuses. No bullsh*t. Just actions, positivity, and results. Only post AFTER your reps are done. Always support each other.

• You choose what types of exercise reps to do.
• 30 minutes of fitness walking, running, spinning, biking, cross-country skiing, etc., can count as 100 reps if you need to rest or can't use weights.
• I'll award 1 SBD for every 10,000 rep milestone you hit. (14 SBD paid)
• I run the numbers daily which is sometimes harder than my reps.

Conditions:

• Weights not required.
• Do real reps with good form, aiming for 100+.
• Start your reply with "Challenge Completed".
• Reply with a list of the exercises and reps you did.
• Cumulative tallies are appreciated as a separate line.
• Only submit reps you've done, not ones you're planning to do.
• Use the tag "fitnesschallenge" on associated posts.
• Upvoting or resteeming is appreciated to reach more.
• Try to upvote as many contributors as possible to motive each other.

Advice:

• Stretch before and after exercise.
• Breathe properly on each rep.
• Quality over quantity.
• Eat a healthy snack after and stay hydrated.
• Start with exercises you enjoy to build up for harder ones.
• Take before pictures to appreciate results over time.
• Feel good about your accomplishments.

New feedback from @musclegirlfusion:

"Since I started posting in this challenge, you've given me a reason to blog on steemit. No matter how discouraged I get when it seems like no one is reading what I write, I know I can write it and post it here and it adds to the challenge. So thank you for giving me the motivation I need to stick with blogging!!"

New feedback from @bitfiend:

"After starting 6 days ago I already feel stronger. This is definitely the most consistent exercise I've done in an extremely long time but I am happy to be taking part! While I walk around mostly in pain, I know it's all for a good cause! My health! I am feeling better and I'd say my sickness is mostly gone now. I think that if I had not been exercising, I may have been sick for a bit longer. Persistence pays off!"

Feedback from @mightpossibly:

"I find it deeply satisfying to do these reps, which is a big deal. I've always hated the gym and prefer to exercise at home. But I've lacked the discipline to do it. It sort of feels like I have gym buddies now, without the hassle of going to the gym."

Feedback from @notorious562:

"I seriously cannot explain how much this group pushes and motivate me to keep working harder. I love this fitness community and the support and encouragement will help us achieve our goals."

Feedback from @khufu:

"Your challenge has helped immensely to keep me motivated lately. I've had a lot of... problems going on so your challenge has been a quantum of sanity in an insane world for me."
