    Oops I meant pauses at the bottom of the squats, but I bet slow Jack's would be killers also. No momentum. I often hold my arms out in front of me on the squats. Anything for a little extra. Don't clasp them behind your head if you get dizzy. Might fall forward and go squish. Lol. Have a great race. Baby your knees, only get one set of them. I try not to pause to often. Yesterday I was forced to stop and bring in my barking dogs! Little stinkers. I push myself but not to the point of being dizzy from loss of oxygen. And yes, I am feeling stronger also. :)

    I didn' t do full burpees the first two days I believe. Doing them slower, but with the push up now.

    Running now, have a great race with your boys. :)

    My burpees are pretty funny looking, but I do them anyway...good thing nobody else is in the room! The pause during the squats is killer. What a burn! I just do hands on hips. I'll see tomorrow if I can do the push ups on my toes or not. My arms are pretty sore today. About a year ago I did something dumb... tried to do knee push ups without a pad, and my knees went 'squish.' The doc took me off all exercise for six months...it was brutal. I don't want to do that again, so I'm pretty careful. Since tonight is a rest night for us, I don't know how much I'll do tonight. Maybe I'll just go shopping!!! :happy:
