More people are joining simply because they've SEEN this blog series, and wish they saw it sooner. In the spirit of helping others be healthy and join a supportive team, please help us by resteeming for visibility.

You know that exercise is important, so start with just one day of sharing 100 reps and go from there. We support each other every day, and we'll support you, so why not give it a try?

These people are creating their own original posts to prove their hard work. Please support their dedication with encouragement!

The Challenge: At least 100 honest reps of exercise every day. No excuses. No bullsh*t. Just actions, positivity, and results. Only post AFTER your reps are done.

• If you can't contribute yet, try to eat natural foods and stay well hydrated without the sugar for now.

• It's ok to start with a number you're comfortable with if you can't reach 100. You choose what exercises to do.

• 30 minutes of dedicated brisk walking or running can count as 100 reps if you're unable to lift or need to rest.

• Please also support these participants for their commitment to their physical and mental health. Thank you.

Daily Challenge Completed - 120 reps:

-70 Straight Back Bar Deadlifts (75 pounds)
-20 Bar Shoulder Presses (75 pounds)
-20 Bar Shrugs (75 pounds)
-10 Reverse Bar Forearm Curls (75 pounds)

Daily Assessment: I ate lean today: sauteed kale and onions in olive oil, a can of tuna, and approx 1.5 lbs of grilled chicken breasts. My body feels constantly pumped from the daily workouts, so I might need to start some dedicated stretching to make sure I don't get too tight for baseball in a few months.

Feedback from @mightpossibly:

"I'd also like to add that 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."

Please see my first post linked below for my motivation, the challenge background, rules, and details for the Steemit Silver Coin prize! It's also got some personal stuff about why I'm doing this, so it could be a good motivator.
