Moira Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Done with EC! I am not surprised honestly. The back of my hands began to hurt during the last minute but I could still use them afterwards. Grip strength FTW! I should do this more often considering the arthritis that runs in my family. 3 Quote Adventurous Druid Ranger Pain is inevitable, suffering is a choice.

Morag Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Done. With ec too. Had to start over a minute in, twice.

I'm on the east coast, and the new dare is usually up in the afternoon. So depending on your time zone and what time of day you check the site, it can be really easy to mix the dares up. With the videos, not all dares have one, like the fist one doesn't. And you won't see a link if you check the dares from the main daily dare archive page. But in addition to that page, they are also posted on Darebee Hive, and those posts tend to include a link to a video. I hope that makes a little more sense. 1 Quote Current Challenge: Zeroh, stick to the routine! Link to comment

I think the issue was that I didn't do it until late evening, so the fist one was on the left by that time. It says the date if I remember to check it.

Arcalia Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 I really like today's. I had a big project today, so did the clenches after 6-7 hours typing. Felt awesome. This is getting incorporated into my routine for sure. 5 Quote Link to comment
Moira Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 So my workout for tomorrow already has 30 second flutter kicks at the end of each round so I will extend those to 40 seconds each round (x3). No way I am doing that 2 minutes straight, if only I had the powah! 3 Quote Adventurous Druid Ranger Pain is inevitable, suffering is a choice.

jonfirestar Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 I swear darebee hates me why do we get 2 minutes of flutter kicks a week after I decide to add some heavy core work into my routine. they got done, with EC, it wasn't pretty and it got quite painful. 4 Quote - strava - myfitnesspal - Instagram 2019 Roadmap Spoiler " Always aim for something stupidly crazy." - Charlie Quinn 2019 Races: Cliveden MTR 06/01 | Nuts Challenge 02/03 | Reading Half Marathon 17/03 | W.A.R 27/04 | RRDW 11/05 | Nuclear Oblivion 19/05 | Man vs Lakes 20/07 | Spartan Trifecta Weekend 05-06/10 | OCRWC 11-13/10 Current Challenge: First Steps Previous Challenges: 1| 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 Link to comment
zeroh13 Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 I did the shoulder taps with EC and the clench-unclench with EC. Flutterkicks done, no way EC was going to happen on that. I think this is one of those exercises that looks deceptively easy, until you do them for the first time. 3 Quote Current Challenge: Zeroh, stick to the routine! Link to comment

Magicman Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 Done with EC on everything so far this week. The clenching thing was intense! Minute one I thought "this isn't bad," and minute two I thought "minute one was lying!" Flutter kicks have have been in my wheelhouse since my martial arts days, so I actually enjoyed today's! 2 Quote My Profile Link to comment
mom2sjm Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 I tried twice for EC but just couldn't get it done. hollow body holds are not my strong pose anyway. throw in some flutter kicks with that position and I'm done. but I did accumulate 2 minutes so at least one point for today. 4 Quote mom2sjm Rock Gnome Rebel Level 28 current challenge Link to comment
Magicman Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 Oh my god the squats. All the squats. Done with EC, but almost not. I was ready to stop and saw I had 15 seconds left, and I decided I didn't want to have to do it again later so I pushed through. 4 Quote My Profile Link to comment
jonfirestar Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 Darebee does hate me. All the squats on the same day that I have a 10 mile run on the cards. Why oh why? Done with EC and it didn't take too much out of my legs. 2 Quote - strava - myfitnesspal - Instagram 2019 Roadmap Spoiler " Always aim for something stupidly crazy." - Charlie Quinn 2019 Races: Cliveden MTR 06/01 | Nuts Challenge 02/03 | Reading Half Marathon 17/03 | W.A.R 27/04 | RRDW 11/05 | Nuclear Oblivion 19/05 | Man vs Lakes 20/07 | Spartan Trifecta Weekend 05-06/10 | OCRWC 11-13/10 Current Challenge: First Steps Previous Challenges: 1| 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 Link to comment
zeroh13 Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 The squats are done, with EC too. I can do these pain-free now, but the movement is still fairly stiff and I need to keep a close eye on my form. Slow and steady I guess. 1 Quote Current Challenge: Zeroh, stick to the routine!
