6:44.

Piss poor. I did them at the end of my press day so hopefully giving them a dedicated day from now on will show some improvement. Man, I haven't been that fucked up in a while. I'll certainly burpee myself to death more often.

BTW - under 200lb (barely).

that's a good idea Brandon

and let's face it, if anyone lies about their time, they are just cheating themselves

How are people working through the 100? I'd be impressed if anyone claims to be able to bust out 100 straight with no brief rests. I went with 25x4 but I feel it slowed me down. Next time I think I'll try 10x10, which would be closer to what my body's used to from tabatas.

I did as many as I could without killing myself, took a mini break to catch my breath and then kept going with mini breaks here and there.

I did 50, shook my legs out and paced around for a second, then did 2 pyramids of 1,2,3,4,5,4,3,2,1 with about 2-3 seconds between a step if I needed it, and a little longer between the two.

I was in such agony towards the end I knew I was making some pretty hilarious faces. Good thing no one was around to see them.

I'll give it a shot, but I'm a bit out of shape. Under 200lb here. I was gonna say "it sounds like fun" but from reading some of the posts, it looks like it's far from it. Oh and is there a deadline?

I can only speak for myself, but I can say that I wasn't exactly laughing from joy during this...actually there was quite alot of cursing my own weakness, luckily no one was around to hear it
