-100 Full Russian Twists (10 pounds)

My Daily Assessment:
My right trap, shoulder and UCL are all tender from baseball season. It's tough to heal fully between weekend double headers when I keep lifting with them during the weekdays. It's a vicious cycle, but I'm hopeful that the pain is weakness leaving my body, and that it's making me stronger for the long term.

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!!"
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!"
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."
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."
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."
Rep on,

Seeing the sea is wonderfull and so relaxing.

The 20 were more than enough to get the burn.
Challenge Completed! 200 Reps
On Day 43 I went for another moring run, this time just a bit longer compared to yesterday and I actually enjoy this way of getting some fresh air in the moring before hitting the shower. The combination of spreading my reps around over the day and taking part in the #fitnesschallenge have fixed the issues I had with doing a regular moring routine.

Does the skype work at your place? I want to see those 200 squat jumps!!!!Please.
I have already told you that I do 100 squat jumps in the morning and 100 in the evening in the gym with 5 sets of 20 reps. And there is no way I can show you a full video of this. So please understand.
Thank you, and sorry I thought you have an interesting talent so I would help you to boost your career. Are you preparing for any competinion?
Yes actually I'm preparing for a police examination and that requires fitness and running examination. And legs are important for running.
Awesome! Maybe you know your running the times of 100m, 600m, 2000m?
Sticking to before, please consider high knees to be cardio. If you're doing them for x minutes, just add that time to the treadmill and cycling time.
I'll say they took 20 mins, which they probably took much less, and call it 20+20+20 cardio for 200 reps total and 932 overall.
