Daily Dare (March 19 - April 15)

[Infinity.Creates]

Doesn't look like anyone has the motivation to set this up yet, so it falls to me

 

Welcome all to the latest Round of Darebee's Daily Dares! This will be starting on Monday 15 and lasting for the rest of the challenge. 

All are welcome.  Every day, they post a bodyweight exercise challenge no equipment needed, every day.  Sometimes they're easy, sometimes they're not.

 

Every day there are two levels of difficulty.  1)  just get it done, over the course of the day, and 2) Extra Credit (EC,) which usually means all in one shot.  

Either do one or the other.  You get either 1 or 2 points per day, no more.

Miss the day (in your time zone) and you miss the points.  Need a variation?  Not a problem, but no points for you.

 

If you decide to join, declare what rank you're aiming for and sign up on this spreadsheet. Then, just keep track of how many dares you complete throughout the challenge.

 

If you're not sure about what counts for the dare or extra credit, post here and we'll rule by what seems to make sense to the most of us. Some days you might not be able to do an exercise, and that's ok!  If you like, try modifying or scaling the dare to something you can do. I've added a new column where you can keep track of dares you've modified and completed. The modified dares don't "count' toward "official" totals, but we can still reward you with creative titles if you like. Sometimes Darebee likes to be cute and offer extra extra credit. That's cool...go for it, we'll all be impressed. Let's keep it simple and leave those out of our calculations.

 

The person with the most points at the end of the challenge will be declared the Daredevil! (other titles are available, inquire within.)

Does this start Monday the 19th, or today, the 15th? If it starts Monday that's 28 days, so the max would be 56 points.

Start's Monday 19th. 

It started a bit late, so reduced max point, but the competition is still on!

[Rinna]

I'm in.  Gonna try for silver, but we'll see.  Last time I kept forgetting to do the thing.

[Jarric]

Sounds cool, I'm up for giving this another go! Thanks for tagging me @IAmInfinite

Who else haven't we got yet?

Lol I haven't done the daily dares challenge since I stopped running it 10 rounds ago! It's cool that this is still going.

So I can't tempt you back then?

[Xena]

Last round was pathetic for me. I'm going to try not to obsess about doing this every day, but sure...I'll do what I can!

 

Thanks for the nudge @Jarric

[Eskcanta]

Ooh ooh!  I wanna play!  (now am I able to play.... heh.  Haha.  hahahaha.  Have you already picked a title for the one who has to do a variation for the most exercises?  I am probably going to be in the running for that spot).

 

Yeah, I'm totally ready for this, see?  Some people say, "I've got this in the palm of my hand", I will instead say "The palm of a hand has got me".

Great idea to make one up! ...but I don't have any great ideas.

Let's brainstorm!  

 

Is everyone ready for the challenge to begin tomorrow? ;D

Yeah!  Feed me dares, if they fit in my mouth I will swallow them whole!

[Diadhuit]

Ok, challenge set, I'm in!

Since "Daredevil" is a marvel superhero, I was thinking "Mystique" because she's a shapeshifter (shifting the dare to make it possible)

 

But maybe it would be better to have "dare" in the title.

[WhiteGhost]

Off to a good start with hip thrusts  

 

(side not: I seem to be able to access Google Docs again, so I will go ahead and update myself.  If I need help again, I will request it here)

[Eskcanta]

ZOMG!

 

I was totally not expecting to see a challenge I could... do.  Like, without modifying it.  I would have bet on that...

 

Now, the spreadsheet says "loading" for like ever... so I cannot update. (Fixed yay fixed)

 

But I did the 40!  In one set... wow oh wow oh yay.

 

Did I say, I would say "The palm of a hand has got me"?

 

It was almost like this...

 

 

Something I can doooooo!  Wooohoooo and many other owl noises!

 

(And, this was an already existing gif.  I can't believe that either.  I have officially moved to the Twilight Zone! )

To be honest, most of them you can do without modifying, but you've just got to do it in smaller chunks (which I think is also better for challenging you). SO instead of 40 at once, doing 10 at once and breaking them into manageable parts. Some of them though, ooft. And then some are easier than todays.

[Rinna]

Done, with EC

[Xena]

I got lucky! I'm a bit under the weather, and this was a plague-friendly exercise. I even did it in bed because the hotel carpet creeps me out. It felt better to get even that much movement in my body.

Interestingly (mildly) I felt it more in my inner thighs that usual. Maybe something about stabilizing on the soft surface.

 

ETA: @Eskcanta I love your point goal :-)

[Jarric]

Forgot yesterday's dare in the end

 

Got the flutter kicks in after my run this morning though. No EC - those things are surprisingly hard!
