Below was a push up routine that was part of the 20 minute workout (easily the hardest part). When Sally goes up, you go up. When sally goes down, you stay down (until she goes up again). I had to go on my knees several times. Give it a shot @DA RAIDERS Bring Sally Up Pushups just had a chance to check this out. it looks devilishly hard not sure when i'll be able to work it in. tomorrow/today, is an hour and a half of yoga with bob. plus 100 push ups. and, i'd love to work in a nice hike, 4-6 miles. i'll try to work it in on an easier day. or, i may have to wait until i'm done with two a days on the yoga and have hit 30 days of 100 push ups. which is in 11 days. how long did you last until you went to your knees?

The body combat version is only 2 minutes long because it’s mixed in with other exercises (immediately after the pushups, they have us doing quick jab, cross, uppercuts). If I tried this independently (not with body combat), I’m guessing I would be lucky to get to a minute. Once you get on your knees your arms are dead so you’ll likely need to take breaks at that point. The killer is when they have you down for like 4 seconds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Otis 13,395 Posted August 8, 2020 Author Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) I WAS TOLD THERE’D BE NO CRUNCHES Day 6 down. First weekend day. I cried a little inside. Actually got both my row and my yoga done before Mrs. O even got out of bed. All while feeding three kids and walking and feeding a dog. NO BIG DEAL. @eaganwildcats, I did some reading on the website about the app. Learned that if you swipe left on the tile for any workout group, there is an option to “activate” that workout. So I restarted Eric Murray. It wouldn’t let me pick up after the third workout, but I really want to finish his module before doing others, so going with it. Not a terribly hard row, but 25 minutes of rowing that got the blood flowing and broke a little sweat. These workouts at this point even combined aren’t terribly long—under an hour total—but starting to feel good about them, and more importantly I notice it affecting how I eat, and my cravings. I have a piece of chocolate at night, or a cookie, but just one. No interest in a rack. I otherwise am skipping on snacking and desserts during the week and eating sensibly. Even the drinking isn’t out of control. Staying the course. Edited August 8, 2020 by Otis Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Even the drinking isn’t out of control. Staying the course. Highly impressive. Honestly I’m somewhat looking forward to the asensei routine being over. I have a sneaking suspicion that since it’s pushing me pretty hard and elevating my HR 170+ in most of these rows it’s making me way more hungry than normal. Didn’t eat crap, but ate a decent amount last night because I just felt famished. Planning to get through the program in the next couple weeks to see what I can do on the 2k before settling back in to a little lower intensity routine. Maybe row almost every day + alternating push ups and ab ripper x. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bostonfred 30,109 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Day 6 of doing yoga together but a reminder that anyone can start at any time. Beginner flow is my favorite of the series and the one I've done the most - six pack abs. I do not have six pack abs, but I feel a lot stronger in my core since I started doing this one. Only 18 minutes. Bring a block or a pillow or maybe even a little ball if you have kids. Would love to hear from anyone who is doing this for the first time to see what you guys think because this one was the first one that made me sit up and take notice that this was hard exercise more than just active stretching. https://youtu.be/tWPpdP4IhEY Advanced flow is the longest one yet today - a full hour of "weight loss yoga". Lots of planks and down dogs so I just finished this one and I'll probably have some lunch before doing my push ups later. https://youtu.be/qSG7PsdZG04 @krista4 @fred_1_15301 @Otis @DA RAIDERS @eaganwildcats @Dickies @Ministry of Pain @[icon] @culdeus @Poke_4_Life 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My endurance is getting better, my form was nearly perfect today and I feel the difference.

I enjoyed yesterday's but just wish it were shorter. None of the individual poses were difficult, but at an hour total it did feel challenging. Wait, I take it back; I did find the very first pose where you "hover" on the tops of your feet a bit difficult. And I reading RAIDERS's post since that deep squat was my favorite part! We definitely have different strengths and weaknesses. Downsides to yesterday's workout were that she was back in what I assume was her "old" set, which is ugly, and that some dude suddenly starting talking to her at one point - wtf was that? Also no Benji, but an appearance by another dog who started licking her - that was a highlight. I figure that might be her old dog that could have passed away, and Benji is the new dog? Today's was nice and another one I could see wanting to do more often. I love the various warrior poses. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Killers on the wrists though. Must not be doing enough of the fabled ‘wrist yoga’. Yoga was followed by a good row. Only 2 more before the 2k challenge.

Otis 13,395 Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Day 8. Woke up really achy. I’m assuming it was yesterday’s yoga, or maybe just the combination of the yoga, rowing, and intermittent pushups over the course of the week without rest. The good news is that Mrs. O got up early with me and I got in a row ( @eaganwildcats — it was workout 3 with Eric, which is the 1000m race — just like last time I came out blazing with like a 1:40 split for the first 500m, and then my cardio gives out and I just can’t catch my breath and I start to slow way down — just a 3:57 — obviously need to improve my conditioning), and Mrs. O will do a walk. And then later I’ll fit in Yoga for a work break. Hopefully with Mrs. O now on board again and not drinking, I can really settle in with a diet to match this exercise routine. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bostonfred 30,109 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Day 8 of doing yoga together but a reminder that anyone can start at any time. Welcome to week two. Beginner flow is a little different today. It's called yoga for healing ad meditation and it's less exercise and more stretching. Lots of those wide legged stretches so if those are difficult for you this will help expand your range of motion a little. You might want a blanket and a block today. Bonus - you'll get your first chance to try crow pose where you sit down and then if you are a twenty something world famous internet yoga instructor i guess you just bounce that up so you are balancing on nothing but your hands. If I have ever successfully done that it was for approximately .1 second at a time before continuing to roll and land on my face. Don't worry, the advanced flow does this too today, so if you fail at it, just known that I will be failing with you today. https://youtu.be/UlW77conmAc Advanced flow is fun because it's out on the beach today but it is also a little bit of everything we all wanted plus everything we each hate. Case in point - we'll be doing lots of those three legged dog knee to elbow things, but also the getting a blowie pose lying down with the knees wide and heels touching. We'll do that froggie squat thing and try crow pose again like the newbs. Oh also we will be channeling daniel san with some warrior 3 and crane pose. When do right no can defend. https://youtu.be/Ido0fK6uBi8 @krista4 @fred_1_15301 @Otis @DA RAIDERS @eaganwildcats @Dickies @Ministry of Pain @[icon] @culdeus @Poke_4_Life @ragincajun 2 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I feel like this pose might be easier for a spry 28 year old yoga instructor wearing tacky gripped yoga pants than a middle aged man who's learning how to do pushups, balancing twice her body weight on brittle wrists with his elbows pinned to his sweaty leg hair. Not exactly a level playing field. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
