    Anyone have a good video for tabata workout. .the one ive got is a girl doing things at a pretty slow speed and from what I know about tabata its supposed to be very hard core and only done a few times a week, and he wants us to do it everyday?! Just need some clarification, is it supposed to be just a 4min warmup for us or are we actually supposed to be going full out like tabata is normally?

    Just a 4 minute warmup, not the full tabata workout.

    Question - How long does it take everyone to do the daily challenges. I find myself going slow when it comes to burpees (HATE 'EM!). Anyone else taking their time with certain exercises?

    I think yesterday (including the 4 min tabata and 5 min bear crawl) took close to 1/2hr for me. .I don't do the burpees very quickly either (yet!). I'd say push yourself to whatever your limit is. . time yourself and try to beat it on the next one!

    Hey ladies. I've been out of touch the last few days because Ive been with family in Dallas. I did well on my water and I did the pygmy challenges for the last 2 days. Im going to do my best to catch up on logging my food...but Im pretty certain I went over these last 2 days.

    I'm sorry and I promise this is the only time I will let you guys (and myself) down during this challenge. I am ready to get going hardcore. Im going to get going on the bushman series tomorrow and I am going to attempt to do as many 5k's as possible.

    Please love me through my vacation failures this week
