    2 questions....

    1. the video link for Burpees goes to the video for globe jumps. I tried searching burpees but found like 3 different things so what's the right version?

    2. whats the difference between the military press and a shoulder press? Am I missing something becasue they look the same to me.

    Thanks!

    Hi All,

    mandysjourney informed me this morning about something Gary had in his status about a personal challenge regarding the crunches....I'm pasting it below...

    "Gary6030: Its rough when you take abuse from people. Its worse when its from your teammates. I have a teammate SuzMac1981 that is talking all kinds of smack today.....She actually had the nerve to challenge me to do 1000 crunches this week so that between the two of us we could elimintate 1/2 our teams crunch challenge. WELL ITS ON LIKE ROBOT DONKEY KONG! Yeah I'm up for your challenge Cheerleader Dancer Girl! I'm wondering if there is anyone else out there that can compete with the MACHINES on Weapons of Mass Reduction. (*****This is additional do not email me saying you can't do it******) ADDITIONAL WEEKLY CHALLENGE! For every teammate that will commit to 1000 crunches this week I will award 10 extra points per person to that team! This could be a big point spread folks. Thanks SuzMac1981 for keeping us challenged you are the best! "


    I just wanted to jump out there an let you all know that i personally committed to do 2,000 this week. (I'm a crunching machine so I'm not worried at all).

    Keep up the great work team and here's to a great week!

    Well I am pretty sure I can knock out 1000 as well so I better get to it. Not sure how the team is going point wise so will try for the bonus points too.

    anyone else want to give it a go?
