300 MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS

Much like the squat thrust, this exercise works out almost every muscle group and is also a great cardio exercise! While in the push-up position, alternate bringing your knees toward your chest. Here’s how to do them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KI8u58hPam4

We’re counting in singles today, so every time a knee comes up to your chest, that counts as one. If this is your second (or more) time doing these, try to beat your previous number by 10!

If you are new to this exercise, or you have bad knees, try low-impact mountain climbers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWidX50lJSI

You can always take a break if you need to.

Post once to accept and post back once completed!

    I am in, but it will be late before I finish. Today is a lifting day, and shoulders are on the menu, so better to do these after.

    Done. I did 200 in increments of 50 throughout the day, and then did the last 100 as part of my strength training (working shoulders and chest today). I got smart, for a change.

    I ran out of time last night to finish these but got them done this morning.
