    The high knees, would 500 be 250 each knee? Or is left then right counted as one?

    Sorry I didn't clarify. High knees would be 250 per knee.

    So, I'm noticing I'm having a hard time getting my stuff for Fridays and Saturdays done.

    Am I allowed to do them early? Like tack them on a different day?

    Sure! As long as you get your full week done I don't see a problem with it.

    I'm not sure if it just me being really unco-ordinated but I found it tough to do the arms and legs at the same time with the plank rows, thankfully nobody was watching me do them :laugh:

    I chose the Jumping Oblique Twists which I actually don't mind, I probably should have done the High Knees as I find it very
    challenging to keep my knees up high but I dislike these almost as much as Jumping Jacks and Burpees :tongue:

    I am VERY behind in my workouts. I started off chosing the oblique jump twists, but I decided to switch to high knees. (Luckily I only made it through 20 OJT.)

    I am going to try my hardest to get caught up tonight. I wasn't feeling good last night, and I had a friend come over on Monday night to discuss Nutrilite.

    I will get it done Team 2!
