    I only did 30 (each arm) reps of bow and arrows tonight, and my arms were literally shaking after!! Those babies KILL!!!! I figure if I break it up into 5 days of 30, I should be golden! lol

    I did 20 on each arm and it killed!!! Lol
  • Thanks Georgie I think that's what I'll do.

    Okay, I'm stuck. I did my bow and arrow stretches for the day, but cannot figure out how to add them to my exercise diary.

    As for the burpees, I like 3 sets of 60-second burpees to 3 of their workouts this week.


    I just put them in my notes so I could keep up with how many I did.

    Ok we will need to decide how many burpee's we are going to have them do. So from what I see it is a 4 part squat. So I say that they need to do 75 added to everything else that they have by the end of the week.

    Did you all decide on the punishment exercise. Remember they (and me) have to have time to do it.

    Looks like burpees, am I right, guys??? Don't know how many, though...I would say 20 but I'm a softie!! LOL

    I think we all did agree on burbees - I'm trying to think what I could do -- they don't have to do them all at once - they could do like 5 a day at the end of their regualr workout so maybe 30 or 25?

    What's a burpee? :laugh: :wink:

    That's a seed company, right?

    I get it... Like gardening at the prison as punishment for Rick and Carl?

    Ok Tj we picked the what, it's the how many that we are having a hard time with so can you pick that ? It looks like anywhere from 25 - 75 for the week. That's not being to soft is it ? We don't want them to real mean to us when the table is turned and we want them to have enough time to do them. :frown:

    I think it would be better if we tell them just to do 3 sets, 60 seconds of burpees, that way it's tailored to their fitness level.

    The punishment has already been given. No worries. At least they can break them up and do them at their convenience. 50 isn't too bad :) I went in to Team Carl and read a couple of responses to our punishment, made me giggle :) hehe

    I think we have figured out that while its easy to let you guys pick the actual exercise, we will pick the reps because its hard to get a whole team to check in every day.

    How about the MVP of the winning team pick the punishment and reps? Added bonus for mvp

    Hi Team! This is Angi, Captain of Team Michonne just wanting to thank you for the awesome workout push you are giving us this week! I am going to have super sexy arms when this is over! LOL.

    Congratulations on your win! Enjoy it while it is yours.
  • Hope everyone's had a successful day. I admit I'm having trouble with the bow and arrows. So far I can only do 15 on each arm, and that's with TH setting the bow up to the lightest weight (pull?) and yes, I'm using a real bow..lol.

    I think it's because I have spagetti arms from typing at the computer all day. All I know is I did the sets after working 6 1/2 hours typing/scrolling over here and now I feel like my arms are falling off. I'm such a wimp.

    Ooh this is a great idea! That way we're not waiting around for 2 days for everyone to check in and see each other's feedback.

    I think the concensus is to have the Team Captain and MVP come up with the punishment from this moment on. It will make it easier to get the decision made. Plus it will be an added bonus to be the MVP!!

    So far I have 120 of strength, 150 of the bow stretch, and 120 of cardio. I'm trying to do 30 minutes of intense cardio each day, followed by 30 minutes of walking. I have yet to do my cardio today. Hopefully I can get in 60 minutes again today. I'm going to do 30 minutes of cardio kickboxing, and another 30 minute walk today. Not sure if I can get it done, I just did 60 minutes of strength training for legs. I'm tired.

    What is everybody doing today?

    I'll be heading to the gym after work to do my usual treadmill/arc trainer routine for cardio. Did weights yesterday, so need to rest muscles today. I'll do some more bow and arrow stretches and some other stretch moves for my strength today. I'll get it done again this week :) Great work so far, you're rocking this week!

    I only managed 15 minutes of "cardio abs" by Sean T before my hip flexors locked up on me. That man lives leg lifts, ahaha! Tomorrow is not going to be pretty. I can do my lifts tomorrow since it's arm and shoulder day, but cardio may be out for a few days. Anybody want to trade cardio for strength or bow and arrow stretches if I don't make it? Hahaha.

    The other teams seem to be finding those burpees pretty easy to get finished. How do you all think you would have done if you had had to do them?

    I'd have been fine. I thought 50 was a little low for a week, but ah well! Lol Maybe they'll take pity on us next week when deciding our fate! LOl
