Relic Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 so by single set you mean the first time you need to break?Yes, by "single set" I mean continuous movement, no stops. Burpees are very aerobic so it might not be actual muscle failure but it would be the point where your body/mind goes on strike.What do you mean by higher multiplier of their set number?It was my way of making it scalable to individuals levels(sorry, I couldn't figure out a good way to word it)if X=your daily minimumthen your multiplier = total burpees ÷ Xso people who can't do as many don't have to do as many to get the same multiplier.So anyone who does all 6 weeks with no extra burpees will score a 42 Quote To find piece with myselfI must first find a piece of myself Link to comment
BlackWidowEowyn Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 I gotcha.

AgentsSka Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Well, I'm certainly not winning this challenge. But, I finally was able to do this. And, I did it in 12:35. Not horrible. But, certainly not great. 8:09! Damn! Quote Current Challenge || Previous:: 2020 Reset There are a ton of previous challenges that I'm not linking "Freaking pansies.

Birdwing Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 I had no idea what a burpee was, and at this point in time, I can't really do a push-up (n00b here!), but, I just wanted to say, all this stuff is really inspiring, and looks like a way to make push-ups fun. Being able to do a certain amount of push-ups in a certain amount of time is one of my long term goals. Thanks for all the great info! Quote Link to comment
