jonfirestar Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 The backfists were easy enough for ec. Today's though? 30 jump lunges FFS! Nope. I got 17 before I topped over. 13 in the second set to make up the 30 but no way can I do those for EC!

I modified the pushups to negatives (full pushup on the way down, then drop your knees on the way up). You could also do the pushups on your knees, or even just substitute a plank for the pushup. 12 hours ago, jonfirestar said: The backfists were easy enough for ec. Today's though? 30 jump lunges FFS! Nope. I got 17 before I topped over. 13 in the second set to make up the 30 but no way can I do those for EC! Makes me feel better to hear you say that. I made it to 22 and felt really guilty about stopping. But it was one of those things where my body just decided to stop.

Xena Posted December 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Crunch kicks done with EC. Since WhiteGhost can't see the results, I thought he might like to know how well he's doing :-) That takes WhiteGhost up to 20 points (10 challenge with EC) and the uncontested lead I think Jonfirestar is likely sitting in second (15 points logged, but I don't think he's logged the past couple days) I'm likely in third with 16. There are a few others pretty close (and I know some of you might have more completed Dares to log)...right now I see Inazea and CheshireCrab tied with 12 (almost at Bronze!), Diadhuit with 9, Jarric and Rhovaniel tied with 6, Morag with 9, and KBGirl with 3. Let's see how many of you can hit Bronze this week! 1 Quote Xena, Level 14+ Valkyrie Ranger January 2017 December 2016 Oct/Nov 2016 Link to comment

Yeah, I hadn't logged. I've done them all, only one without EC. I'm trying to math it and i think that's 21 The last couple of days have been fairly easy. Though it probably wasn't wise to leave it until after I'd finished my workout to do the Superman Extensions. So I'm in first until @WhiteGhost wakes up 1 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

WhiteGhost Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Aaaaand once again today's dare is a repeat from my workout this morning. I have come up with a pretty good program for doing these - each night before Ghostlet goes to be we do the dare together. He will always do the EC version, but modified to fit his abilities (last night was him just lying on his back and lifting his head off the floor 20 times) 1 Quote HUNTER OF ALL THINGS SHINY Intro Thread Challenge Log Bodyweight Exercise Library Recipe Book Shuffle Club Level 2 Ninja Strength: 13 Intelligence: 14 Wisdom: 6 Dexterity:14 Constitution: 12 Charisma: 11 Link to comment

I have previously sucked in random houseguests and gym buddies into doing the DD with me. I vaguely tried to interest the BF in one of the dares...but unfortunately it was one of the dorkier days (backfist punches). He didn't go for it. Jumping kneetucks done with EC. Not sure why they made us do 30 jumping lunges but only 10 of these. 2 Quote Xena, Level 14+ Valkyrie Ranger January 2017 December 2016 Oct/Nov 2016 Link to comment

They just feel like an unnecessary escalation of force placed on your joints because they promote a hard landing. 1 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

I actually really dislike tuck jumps on general principle. They just feel like an unnecessary escalation of force placed on your joints because they promote a hard landing. Don't hate on the jumping knee tucks too much, they can really useful depending on your workout focus. They are a great exercise for working on parkour vaults and precisions, and flips are impossible without first mastering these. Even from an OCR perspective, these will help immensely for the over part of the OUTs and for quickly getting over low walls (and are even useful as a progression for throwing your legs up on the higher walls). 1 Quote HUNTER OF ALL THINGS SHINY Intro Thread Challenge Log Bodyweight Exercise Library Recipe Book Shuffle Club Level 2 Ninja Strength: 13 Intelligence: 14 Wisdom: 6 Dexterity:14 Constitution: 12 Charisma: 11 Link to comment
