From @musclegirlfusion:

"Since I started posting in this challenge, you've given me a reason to blog on steemit. No matter how discouraged I get when it seems like no one is reading what I write, I know I can write it and post it here and it adds to the challenge. So thank you for giving me the motivation I need to stick with blogging!!"

From @bitfiend:

"After starting 6 days ago I already feel stronger. This is definitely the most consistent exercise I've done in an extremely long time but I am happy to be taking part! While I walk around mostly in pain, I know it's all for a good cause! My health! I am feeling better and I'd say my sickness is mostly gone now. I think that if I had not been exercising, I may have been sick for a bit longer. Persistence pays off!"

From @mightpossibly:

"I find it deeply satisfying to do these reps, which is a big deal. I've always hated the gym and prefer to exercise at home. But I've lacked the discipline to do it. It sort of feels like I have gym buddies now, without the hassle of going to the gym."

From @notorious562:

"I seriously cannot explain how much this group pushes and motivate me to keep working harder. I love this fitness community and the support and encouragement will help us achieve our goals."

From @khufu:

"Your challenge has helped immensely to keep me motivated lately. I've had a lot of... problems going on so your challenge has been a quantum of sanity in an insane world for me."

Great work! Will be added them to your total. How has your baseball season going?

So far so good. I pitched for the second time during our last games since my shoulder had healed and threw 6 innings for the win and 3 earned runs. My knuckleball was on fire. I started hitting like crazy at the beginning of the year, but have settled down to .382, which is still awesome. Leading my team in hits, RBI and RUNS so far.

That is awesome brother! I am glad this season has been nothing but successful for you.

I took a needed resting day and only got to 90 honest reps so challenge not completed.

I think we should make an exception this time and give @byebyehamburgers 100 reps just for his honesty, AND getting those 90 reps in even when it's a rest day :)!

Hey no shame in that. You did more than anyone who decided to take the day off. I have learned that its actually okay to take a few days off when necessary. I used to feel so guilty when I didn't post. Just hit it harder tomorrow. Hope you enjoyed your rest day.

Next time you feel so inclined, sneak in some calf raises or air squats for 25 seconds and you'll be happier you did.

I went windsurfing with My sistet for 1,5 Hours. Second attempt, but failed in getting back to shore alone. I’m not giving up yet.
100 reps

Great attitude! Never give up :)!

Wow that sounds like a lot of fun. I've never been. Did you struggle to swim in with the current?

Its windsurfing on a lake, With a sail.
My sister is really good at it and I hope to go with her to Bonair one day. I’m having a lesson on saterday for my 41 birthday ( midlife crisis?, who knows?)
