On the plus side, I'm getting a hell of a lot better at FIFA21.

Yay!

I'm usually winning at Sonic All-Stars Racing, but nothing's changed there, years of Mario Karts experience to fall back on. Son still slips by occasionally.

20th - 4 k walk with family, 1 hour boulder session. And did half hour of shoulder shrugs using theraband under foot while on a call. I kept screen off or else people would have though I didn't know anything!

Can't say I've been anywhere near "all-in" on sharkathon this year, but seeing it pop up daily has nudged me in the right direction so I've been out running, some yoga and been trying to do pull ups of mum's stair (kind of works).

Some mates had seem some silly Mitbo visor and decided to try the 100 challenge - 100 pull ups, site ups, pressups and squats in the shortest time you can.

That was Tuesday. DOMS got progressively worse yesterday and very time I tried to turn over last night I was a like a disabled fish.

Try it!

What are the rules for this?

Think that's it? Any number and size of sets, just get them done as quick as possible. Obvs scope for abuse via kipping etc, but its just a bit of fun. Nik did a version with leg raises instead of squats for sharkathon one year (though not for speed), there's a funny video in one of the old threads of him flopping about like a dead fish.

Tried this (with squats) today, couldn't quite get under the half hour (30:13). Its basically piss except for the pull ups so a bit unbalanced, but adds some variety to the daily sharkathon grind!

Might try it today. Might take me all day!

Grim horizontal sleet here, alternative is resorting to dreadmill for the first time this year.

Thanks.

I guess in terms of strategy for under 30 minutes you'd be looking at super-sets of stuff rather than say 100 pull ups, then 100 press ups etc.

When did exercise for fun become the UKB way? 😂

“Flopping about like a dead fish”  :lol: :lol:

I’d feign offence if you weren’t entirely accurate...

Aye, we all did something along the lines of 5 pull-ups, 5 press-ups, 5 crunches, 5 squats, check off a box on a bit of paper, wheeze, wobble, repeat...

From about 4 set in I could only do 4 pull-ups, or sometimes 3, then 1, then 1. One of the guys managed 15 mins, but we've managed to needle it out of him that his squats were well subpar!  (just going horizontal, not deep). I'm middle of the field at 21 mins. Utterly broken for 2 days though! Managed a 30 min walk with my mum today (family bubble).

*anticipate no giggles.
