RE: 7,042 Reps Added: Daily 100+ Rep Fitness Challenge (Day 138)
Ugh! That gif hurts my soul.
Daily Rep Challenge Completed : 256 reps consisting of:
- 60 minutes of lawnmower cardio = 100 reps
- Titan Games trial = 30 reps
- 3 x 7 sets of 6 reps of Tendonitis Strengthening exercises = 126 reps
What tendons are you exercising?
I've got Golfer's Elbow, Tennis Elbow and something weird happening at the very bottom of my triceps just above my elbow. A year or so ago, I'd have to cut any session involving grip or hanging or climbing short, and would be in pain for two days, easily. Now that I've been working on them multiple times a week, I'm really only feeling it in the triceps. Things like rope climbs are killer.
While I've seen a huge improvement, none of it's being resolved... if I take a week or two off, I go right back to Pain City and have to pretty much start over. Overuse injuries suck. Start slow and build up kids!
Hopefully some up-votes will heal your soul....and the Gif guy's tail bone.
Lawnmower reps seriously? I think it's supposed to be reps of things in addition to your daily/weekly/monthly routines.
Given that I haven't done anything like it for over 20 years, and I was full on sweating and completely exhausted afterwards, I thought I'd count it. I covered over 5kms in that hour.
If it's not regular activity then it's all good.
As long as this was your lawnmower...
