I started NML's 2 week Metcon 100. Two thumbs up. I wasn't overly ambitious
- OK, not ambitious at all but got it all done. . Holy banana count..... 1

Happy and Healthy New Year to all

Thanks for starting a new thread, buffmama! I hope you're feeling better. I was going to start the NML metcon challenge today, but I just wasn't in the mood for all the chatter. So I did Juliette Wooten- 40 Min. Tabata workout. This workout was just okay. I'm not a huge fan of jumping with heavier weights, and she had a bit of it using a 15 pound dumbbell. I did the moves, but it is not something I would do often. I like that Juliette has some unique moves, but not all of them are successful so I'll modify to do what works for me. I feel like I got a good workout, though.

NML Retcon 100 Day 2 push ups! ugh!!!!!!!! I did elevated push ups to get through them and some were super-elevated, better that than misalignment and for some reason I didn't want to do them off my toes. ETA: Holy banana count = 1
I also did a rotational strength class with Justina Escole that had enough rows to balance out the pushing from Lindsey.
I crashed yesterday after exercising and expect I will later today too.

buffmama- 100 push ups is a lot- even if they are spaced out in the workout! Plus since you've been sick I bet those were tough!

I saw that Chris & Edi posted their first workout for their Build Series 2- 40 Min. Chest, Shoulders, Triceps & Core, so I wanted to give that a go. It was a tough Push workout, but I made it through. They are now adding warm-ups & cool-downs to their workouts, which is nice. This series is 10 weeks with 5 days a week workouts. I might loosely follow this, but I don't think I can handle 5 days of lifting a week, especially if the workouts are 40-60 minutes long. I'll see how it goes.

I did this one today and loved it. I substituted extra chest and triceps work for the core work and changed some of the exercises a bit to make it a perfect workout for me.

buffmama - I missed that you were sick. Hope you are feeling better.
