Posting this now (11pm GMT Weds) for those people in places where it is already tomorrow.

Same format, harder goals (this is gonna get harder week-on-week. Keep at it. You'll be fine)
  • 150 mins wherever/whenever/however. That's 2.5 hours.
  • Bonus: TEN squats (bodyweight is fine), FIVE jumping jacks, and FIVE push-ups (modified as necessary*) every day. That's 70/35/35 for the week. Add weight as and when/where you can.

*Wall-assisted/bedframe/chair incline push up: http://www.exercisegoals.com/wall-pushups.html // Knee assisted push-up: http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/PectoralSternal/BWPushupKnee.html

Literally do the hardest push-up variation you're capable of doing, whether that's a wall-incline or one handed with the cat laying on your back. Don't wimp out on me.

From Thur Jan 8 through Wed Jan 14 inclusive


Okay, Australia/NZ/etc... over to you guys. I'll check in tomorrow.

    Question is this 2.5 hours everyday? Or is it a total of 2.5 hours within the date range?
