    I'm still watching from the side waiting for injuries to recover. Hoping to be good by the time you are up to day 30 or so.

    I'm out. My back has been killing me after I do these, I think it's because of my terrible form. I do want to finish this at some point, but i think I'm going to have to restart the challenge on my own when I am stronger and more physically fit so that I don't hurt myself. Thanks for introducing me to the challenge and letting me be a part of it, if only for a little while!

    I think this is an excellent challenge.... So I would like to "buy in" by doing all the burpees up to today. So, it's day 13 I am going to have to do 91 burpees through out today. I will check in at the end of today and let you know how I did. Fingers crossed that I can manage it. :)

    I love this exercise cause I am always warn out after doing it. I found a great moderation that kicks you butt even harder: watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkD9LwDBWW0

    hehe humbling exercise! 91 on your first day would be quite an accomplishment.

    I would think that anyone starting now should not try and catch up on all the other days as it is just crazy high starting numbers.

    We do these in my Kosama class every day... I have a LOVE/ HATE relationship with them.
    So, is today day 14?
    Can I join or is it too late. I did 20 today in class. so if I did 1 more that would put me at day 6???
    What would be the best way to catch up? should I cound my 20 as day 14 & catch up days 1,2 & 3?

    I can't click on the original link but if anyone has doubt in themselves I wanted to say that one of my first workouts at Crossfit was "how many burpees can one do in 29 minutes?" I did 147. My friend did 251. Good luck with this challenge friends! :) It's amazing what the body can do!

    15 in the books, and good job, all! Question: Where do you feel it most? Mine is mostly in my shoulders so far.

    Day 17=Done! I wanted to know if I could do 20 without having to break it into sets so I did 3 extra. So far so good.

    ^^^ I did the same thing. Better to catch it early than on day 90, yeah?

    Day 21 Done! :0)
    Did 2 sets of 21. So far I haven't had to break it up into smaller sets. :0) Hoping if I do multiple sets a day(of that day's number) then I will get strong enough that I won't have to break it up into smaller sets(at least for a while).
