Master Challenges Sticky

Whoever gets the most total reps wins.

I dunno, this could end up being a long challenge for some people but I don't think I would even get 100 reps total.

I like this. Chins, pushups, squats, + burpees?

I think the problem with rowing and some of the other challenges is that not everyone has access to it. There is a limited # of people that participate anyhow, so we don't want to eliminate them due to lack of equipment.

On topic: yeah there was a rowing challenge last summer and less than 10 people participated.

Off-topic: I had lunch with my fiance and her family on Saturday and we were bugging her Dad about all the crap that he has piled up in his house. He really needs to clean up so his sisters from overseas can stay with him when they come for our wedding. He has a bunch of exercise equipment that he wants to get rid of and it turns out he has a rowing machine that is most likely a C2 that he wants to give away. Score!
