My Daily Challenge Completed - 100 reps:

-100 Calf Bar Raises (75 pounds)

My Daily Assessment:

I had dinner with someone today who hasn't seen my since November and their eyes lit up at my change in appearance. I pushed my shoulders a little bit too much with two days of weighted arm circles. I had a partial labrum tear years ago and I can feel a little soreness, so I need to ease into it more. Did calves today to rest my right shoulder. My arms are also getting a little too big for pitching, so I want start using my resistance band to stretch often to stay ahead of any inflexibility.

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."

20 counts of leg cycle thingy
20 counts of legs together and moving up and down
20 sit ups amd then 20 of that touching ankle stuff. Total reps: 205 reps.
By the way, training without weights makes the body feel super light.

Those are some great core (ab) workouts!

Thanx man. Do you know their real names?

Best guess...

leg cycle thingy - Bicycle kicks?
legs together and moving up and down - Leg Lifts?
touching angle stuff - Heel Touches?

Thanx man. I'll use those names for now

Yeah, no problem! You may wanna do a quick YouTube search for each of those names to make sure that's what you're doing. But from the description, those are what I'm thinking you're doing.

Leg thingy-Bicycle kicks
Up and down leg movement-Leg lifts
Ankle touches- Ankle touches

Daily challenge completed:
I did a circuit today for 45 min.
I’m not going to count the reps, but count it as cardio for 45 min if that is ok steemmatt?

Then it is 150 reps.

Glad you're healthy again. To be fair to all, 30 mins is 100 reps and 60 mins is the next 100. Partial times between haven't been counted yet, so while you probably did a ton of reps, it'll be 100 for this. You will for doing the workout, I'm just sticking to the book to stay consistent for everyone.

Excellent, I Just want an easy solition for circuit training, as I just don’t want to count it. The group really helped me to pick myself up again and go to the gym, as I felt a bit demotivated after being ill. So I think you are doing a great job @ Steemmatt.
