Daily Dare (Nov 26 - Dec 30)

[Xena]

Round 12 of our PVP (or more...maybe I missed some) using the Daily Dares at Darebee.com starts Sunday Nov 26! This is a little different from our usual timing (we usually start in zero week...this time we'll start with the challenge and continue through the following zero week).

 

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.

 

This is an open PVP, so anyone can join at any time. It's a great way to try out a bunch of different bodyweight exercises, and after 2 times through, I've personally found a bunch of new exercises based on what's been really hard.

 

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.)

p.s. You can't score points until Sunday, but you can still do the dares and tell us your thoughts :-)

Oh, yes, yes, yes. Playtime. Silver for me!

Ok lets do this. Last Christmas was the time I won. So going big. Titanium all the way. Don’t hate on me too much darebee.

[Rhovaniel]

Thanks for setting this up, @Xena! I'm in, but as I've had to scale way back with workouts lately, I'll aim for Gold.  

[Jarric]

I've done this a few times and never got Titanium, so I'm going full for it this time round!

 

Also, we need some (more) previous champions here: @Geek On Fire, @RocketbikeNinja, @zeroh13, @Alcnedlor, @Magicman, @mom2sjm

[Diadhuit]

I haven't set up my 4wc yet, so I am tentatively in

Me neither...have come reeeally close`though. A little nervous this time around b/c I haven't been doing many pushups. I think the upper-body strength-y things will be my downfall.

 

...but I'm still here for trash-talking and best effort!

[WhiteGhost]

This is the first Daily Dare since I joined NF so I will give it a go  

 

As long I'm doing this, I may as well go big, so shooting for a Titanium

[KB Girl]

Hmm, they look interesting and doable. I'll aim for gold since I'm sure there'll be some things I can't do in one set!

[Rhovaniel]

Day one done and dusted! No EC though. My shoulders just said 'no'  

[jonfirestar]

Done with EC, my shoulder hated it less than I expected.

[WhiteGhost]

Did my EC for Sunday but still can't access the spreadsheet

[Jarric]

Day 1 done with EC. Having some issues with the spreadsheet so will put it in later. 

[Diadhuit]

I had some issues with the spreadsheet too a couple of hours ago, but it seems resolved now.

That to say: day one done!

[Morag]

26th done with EC, almost forgot to do it, since it's Sunday, frikkin weirdos!!

 

Love ya.

Katrin

[Inazea]

I'm in! And almost managed to get the EC. 15 seconds left and my shoulders couldn't take it anymore.

[Xena]

Sorry...not sure why the old link didn't work. Should have been an editable link. I re-pasted it to the original post and here.

Can someone give this a try??

[Diadhuit]

Day 2 done.
My core is my weakness so I had to do a knee plank for this.

[jonfirestar]

Day two was easier than I was expecting. Not too hard to get the ec, especially since I did it in the second round of my bw circuit this morning. Because I forgot to see what it was before the first round.

Working fine for me now. Though I suspect that my problem may have been my tablet and not the spreadsheet.

[WhiteGhost]

I did my EC again for today. (I assume it was 20 total and not 20 for each hand in front?)

[KB Girl]

No EC for me today, can't do more than 2 pushups in a row x) 

[Morag]

27th done, no ec.

Keep it up, people, you are amazing!

Had to break this down into 3 sets, but I got it done
