    Burpee's are absolutely dreadful. We're talking about over 100 burpees a day at the end?

    Great!!!! So tomorrow is day one with 25 crunches and 10 burpees. :) imagine how great we will all feel down the line. For the crunches any kind will count. While the number is still low I'll start with bicycle crunches then as it gets higher mix it up for variety. I think the burpees may be the death of me but I'm willing to do it!!

    I am totally in!
    For those who are terrified of burpees, you could possibly do "ManEaters". It's a slow, weighted version of the burpee.
    Hold weights in each hand, get down and jump feet out (holding onto weights),do plank and push up, jump feet back in, stand up, do hammer curl and then push weights up over head. I think I may do this and try to increase my speed as we progress through December. :)
    Good luck everyone! This is a fantastic challenge!

    Never in my life have I ever done a crunch. Never in my life have I even heard of a burpee, less attempted to do one.

    What the hell, I'm in!
