55 pressups in 52 seconds, i was abslutely fked and couldnt even et up for a good miute.

good going mate

cheers mate, looking at your times and stats your doing pretty good yourself.

well that's the great thing about this really...some are good at some things where others aren't as strong and vice versa. We all then have something to aim to beat

to true mate, for me that something and somebody is all of you in everything!!!!

no mate, I will be about last in the pull ups and near bottom at press ups.

I've always had an issue with pull ups and looking at the press ups (such as your own) I may add another 3/4 but I'll never do 50 in a minute

it really comes down to yor goals bruss

when i first joined MT i was a lean fairly well built dude.

i could do 72 pushup in a minute, now i have more size, roughly 25 pounds more i can only do 55. i would gladly trade another 17 pushup for another 25 pounds haha.

put me down for a grand total of 10 pull ups before my shoulder impinged and i had to sit down and cry for 10 minutes

i have no problem being bottom i maybe would have got 14-16 without the dodgy delt but put me down for 10

pretty good considering your a self confessed 'biglad'

My plank virginity is lost
...2min25seconds

Also had a bash at the pressups and managed 44 in the minute.
(A bit disappointing given I distinctly remember doing 45 in 30seconds at age 11 in vain attempt to impress s3xpot/gymnast Suzanne Dando)



Any chance of adding powercleans for a minute as an exercise ? Would suggest 60kg and adjust for bodyweight/proficiency?

.
WTF?
Double post? No idea why.

Oh, I like the look of this

Been a while since I attempted any though so will have to get back to you ASAP

Felt much stronger today, must be the creatine

had a go at some of the things ive already tried and was pleaantly surprised.

Pushups - 63 in 59.28 seconds
Pullups - 24 Wide grip overhand pullups.

100x burpees 6:39

can we have some fat people so i am not bottom on the pull ups???

i'm really disappointed with it

i was going to try the 3 mile run tonight but i did half of it in a car and thought better of it i'll stick to my 1.5 mile one

i'll try the plank holds as well later on, and possibly the burpees

Men do the two lapper.

Ummm, what?

great work lads !!

excellent burpee'ing integra !!

mabie this could be the 'exercise of the month' - we are gonna try a new thing every month and if its popular , boot one of the others or just add it......

well i've just been on a gruelling run, i can't walk and i've just ate so it seems a good time to try the plank holds

boar if we do better can we re-post as i've found another one my delt doesnt like

Could go for some power challenges like standing long jump and standing high job etc.
Or something different like cliff hangers - hanging on to a pull up for as long as possible = nice burn in forearms

Or if anyone's got it, the sit up bleep test is pretty challenging

stand with your back to the wall, and hold in the squat position, hands on head for as long as possible in a PERFECT hold - give it a go

this is a surprising killer, not quite as surprising as tha tplank hold though

Ooooh yeah thats a burner! So are handstands against a wall, got to be fully extended shoulders though
