Terah Posted August 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 I'd say count minutes. Stretching isn't meant to be done in a rush.

Terah Posted August 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 For strength we could do a BW AMRAP circuit where each set counts for points. For example AMRAP 10 minutes 1 burpee / bends and thrusts5 push ups / incline / decline10 flutter kicks can be increased to 4 count20 BW squats ^^^ all scaled to your current ability. or a ladder. each set increases by one rep. for example set 1 do each exercise once set 2 do each set twice. and after say 10 minutes the highest rep count for each exercise. push upjack knifesquatjumping jacks Not sure about the AMRAP part, but I like the idea of counting rounds to see who wins. (I'm not fast )Maybe take the 4 exercises and see which team can do the most rounds in one week?

Hm, I think I will just count water and tea myself. But I thought as long as it's not total rubbish I'm open to what everyone else wants to count. But then that's bad for the competition isn't it.
