Never done anything like this before but last 18mths have been rough and my fitness has taken a dive and my belly taken a boost in size, need a kick up the arse so lets do this.

Same here, have completely fallen off the exercise wagon thaes last 2 years. Have gone from cycling to work 4 days a week and going for a ride at least once but usually twice on the other 3 days to the occasional ride maybe twice a month. Will probably only manage half the days but the motivation will do it for me so I’m in.

I’m in

@reluctantjumper,

I think we are one in the same person, honestly its strange could have written that myself lol.

Is there a minimum standard we are supposed to adhere to

30 minutes of exercise extra to anything you would already do like walking the dog or a short commute. It is accepted that at times life does get in the way and an occasional day off is inevitable.
This challenge provides the added motivation to do something when you really don’t feel like it.

I’ll attempt this again.
I may not do 30 mins each day but I’ll aim to do something.
I did start doing Joe Wicks HIIT workouts via YouTube, which are anything from 10 to 30 mins. Found them to be a pretty good workout but stopped recently to give my wrist a bit more rest and then life got in the way. It also gives me a deadline to get the decorating/deep cleaning done and out the way.
I’ll probably end up doing a lot of walks and a lot of Joe Wicks but that’s a lot of what I’m not doing now.

Anything is better than nothing.

I’m in. Bloody hot weather and holidays over the summer have been no good for my already poor fitness levels…

I’m in too.

My aim is to either ride outdoors, do an early morning sufferfest on the static bike or 30 mins of yoga every day.

Just spotted the thread at 11pm last night, so I managed my 100 press-ups and 100 squats before midnight, and I’ll put that with walking the dog for day one. Started a list on my shopping list app on my phone to nudge me a bit more.

day one

Day one is next week!

I’m in, could do with a push in getting back to fitness

100 press-ups and 100 squats

Add in 100 sit ups and a 10km run and you will following the training routine Saitama from ‘One Punch Man’ follows.
I might try for a quarter of the above numbers?

Right, I’m in as well. I’ve never signed up for any social challenge like this but I need to shift the belly and get fit for next Spring.

Putting in the preparation here. McDonald’s for tea, rum for pudding and just had a bed time buttered scone. Hench.

Righto, I’m up for this.
Not wanting to bang on about it, but having metastatic prostate cancer and starting chemo on the 21st, I need plenty of goals to pull me through.

No pressure but if I can do this… you lot can :-)

I’m going to give this a shot. Loved it the first year I tried it but failed miserably last year due to a dodgy knee! Still have knee trouble but need to shift the 10kgs I’ve put on recently!!

When does it start?

Starts 16th September.

Returning from a STW sabbatical and happy to be back in time for this.

I started stretching/yoga regularly back in June and now WANT to do it everyday but I don’t always accomplish that. Hoping this little challenge will get me over the hump.

May I take this opportunity to encourage you to make stretching/yoga part of your exercise game plan over the next 100 days. As a 47 year old fella I feel fantastic for it. Not just in body but also in mind … I just feel so calm recently, its wonderful (and I haven’t even got into the mediation side of yoga, just the physical) It’s low impact and doesn’t knacker you out, in fact I find it energizing.

Anybody wondering whether they could do this challenge in a boarder sense allow me to give you a tip…. Get way from thinking about WORKING OUT !! Beasting yourself every day for the next 100 days isn’t the idea. Do enough to get a little sweat on but not too much
that you can’t go again the next day.

Good Luck

As above I’ll do a 30mins recovery ride on wahoo as a rest day but still enough to raise the HRM. Tbf usually stick in a yoga 15min to.
