Geek On Fire Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 I shouldn't have waited until after my karate class to try to do these - my puny arms were screaming. 200 more to go before bed...

iatetheyeti Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 400 overhead punches, done and dusted. It kinda hurt... No extra credit. I got through 225 before having to take a five minute rest, then did the rest, although that was tough going. Glad I decided to do this before my workout rather than after! 1 Quote "The old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.

You can only do them on the day they're posted, but you can get extra point for each extra credit you do, so hitting gold requires some extra credit.
