First Daily Dare of 2017! (Jan 02 - Feb 04)


Recommended Posts

High knees done in one go- and the real extra credit is I didn't die.:) I never would have done it if I hadn't been pushing for the EC, I thought my lungs would burst. But they didn't and I survived. It helped me push myself in my workout too, because when I was tired and doing the snatches, I told myself I had just pushed myself harder and survived so I could do it again.

For the blokes out there, did you find there was a bit of ball crushing going on in this one? Couldn't find a way to close my legs comfortably on this!

Don't say "I don't have enough time", say instead "that's not a priority right now" and see how that makes you feel.

splits done with EC. I can't get down really far. I read somewhere that standing in that position for extended time is a good way to build up to the splits.  It actually felt like a good stretch, I should do it more often.

Ok. I'm back, I couldn't do the butterfly dips, just couldn't do them grrrrr. Every time I had them I noticed that either my legs were weird or my arms weren't bending... So yeeeeeaaaaahhhhh I missed those. The next day I completely forgot to do them, then when i did remember to check I was already in bed and didn't have the willpower to get back up and do whatever it was yesterday.

But I'm back now and gonna do some splits, just wait a moment

Done. With EC too, but I had my 6YO hold my hand for the last half minute, literally, because I seem to have gone farther down than my ankles and inner thigh muscles were used to.

Did with EC... I hope I did them correctly. Sometimes I  Iook at the picture and think ???? So. they were like crunches, only you twist you body more to the other side? I wasn't really sure at all what I was supposed to do with these.

uneven planks done. Pretty much what Katrin said. First half done, but the second half whipped me, and I had to break it into parts.

Same here on the uneven planks, done without EC. Tried 1 burpee and my back shouted at me so doesn't look like that's happening :(

I did my burpees, but even though I did them without pausing I don't think I should get the EC. I was so utterly, snail like, it's sad. I have bumped my ankle on friday and kicking out back for the pushup part I just didn't feel confident in my ankle not acting up, so I went slower/gentler than "60sec Burpees" call for. At least in my book.
