12 days of reps for me so far with no excuses. I held my ground at 2:52 after 2:44 yesterday. Let's grow this healthy community now by spreading the word and contributing some reps. This is for _your_ health. ------- To people new, see the intro link below. We'll be opening up to other exercise types in due time. I'm trying to keep this simple for now to get everyone assembled and on the same page. What's the challenge? 50 push-ups (modified if needed) and 50 air squats. See my video. If you want to do a different ratio or split, that's fine. Just reach 100 reps from these options and reply below with an affirmation, pic, link, or video. We're on the honor system. If you can't do all of the push-ups, I know you can do squats for the rest. Get involved! ---- #### Highlights: #### - Good job to @khufu for 5 days in a row, doing 44 extra reps today. - @rmsbodybuilding and I haven't missed a day, just like last time! ------ #### My Reps: #### After a late night packing boxes of inventory to bring to a storage unit, I hammered out my reps before bed. I really didn't want to do them, but once I got started, my competitive nature kicked in to try to beat my last time. Time: 2:52. https://youtu.be/9NlBl6kns1Y Tonight's fuel was a Thai ground chicken dish out at a restaurant with a Thai iced tea. I also had two greek yogurts, orange juice, soy crisps (420 calories for the bag) and some natural potato chips after. ----- #### Net Participation: 9 Steemians from 7 countries for 4,474 reps! #### Day 1: - @steemmatt (USA) - @rmsbodybuilding (UK) - @belemo (NIGERIA) [Video proof.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoztfkYGRSA) Day 2: - @steemmatt (USA) - @rmsbodybuilding (UK) - @belemo (NIGERIA) - [Video with proud smile at the end.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dv4pEtnaVb8) - @thevillan (AUSTRALIA) - [Video proof that the Aussie Beast is back.](https://steemit.com/dtube/@thevillan/7vbnd5lha1r) Day 3 - @steemmatt (USA) - @rmsbodybuilding (UK) - @belemo (NIGERIA) - @joshman (ETHIOPIA) Day 4: - @steemmatt (USA) - @rmsbodybuilding (UK) [2:19 Video Here](https://archive.org/details/5roudsof10ps.5sq) - @joshman (ETHIOPIA) Nice work with back-to-back days. - @mamalikh13 (IRAN) [Proof Post](https://steemit.com/fitness/@mamalikh13/the-steem-daily-100-rep-fitness-challenge-of-50-push-ups-and-50-air-squats) Day 5: - @steemmatt (USA) - @rmsbodybuilding (UK) [Amazing video here.](https://archive.org/details/50ps50squat) - @belemo (NIGERIA) [Video here](https://steemit.com/fitness/@belemo/100-reps-challenge-day-5) - @celestal (FINLAND) [Video here]((https://steemit.com/fitnesschallenge/@celestal/joining-in-for-steemmatt-s-100-rep-challenge)) Day 6: - @steemmatt (USA) I can't skip my own thing. - @rmsbodybuilding (UK) Like clockwork. - @joshman (KENYA for travel) Moving up the ranks.

Everyone please support and encourage the team here. They're working hard to build a community the hard way. It's about the bigger picture. Make sure you go 90 degrees with your elbows and legs, with your back straight, on each rep. Feel free to help others if they look like that can use some advice. Again, this is just a baseline of activity for the day. This will be far from all I do on most days, and the same can go for you. --- ### Markets and spirits may be down now, but our health should always be on the rise. ### ### We don't always need an app and tokens for everything, or to worry about things we can't control. ### ### Worry about what we _can_ control. Let's put the human back into fitness here and you _will_ see and feel the results. ### Rep on, @steemmatt P.S. - Please use the fitnesschallenge tag if you can.
