Description: Day 26

An absolute f$&@ing nightmare. Took twice as long as it said it would take, and it landed on a day I had to leave town right after work

Blayne Shipman

That was tough but it was worth it to push myself and to see how far I’ve come. Great workout that pyramid was big accomplishment

Rusty

Loved the variety of exercises in this one, was a little challenging

Let’s switch up the stimulus for day 26 and introduce a Pyramid Style Workout! 💯 

This one may get a little tiring and push you a little more than the past few workouts, but FINISHING any task (or the challenge) is all about finishing strong — most jobs are won in the finish!

Pyramid Workout — complete the reps below with as little rest as possible. Split up each exercise as you need (for example; if you cannot do 20 push ups in a row, split it up to 2 sets of 10 and go when you feel ready)!

Day 1

Scott

I hate how the feedback kept generating during my workout but I had a great sweat and my hand strings and feeling no it

Day 2

Easier day today. I couldn’t do the walk because we are having thunderstorms but I did some jogging in place, walk around the house and air squats.

Sore, but worth it. Push through the soreness!

Mackenzie

You mF! Jajajajaj … Im so Fx out of shape! 😞👌 but let’s do this! I will trust you bro! One step at the time!

Victor

Day 3

Dine

I didn’t get the cat/cow exercise, not sure if maybe more details as to what specific area we are working towards the exercise will be great!

Takes a couple reps to figure out which muscles should be worked when properly done. For example: the cat/cow

Day 4

Bill

Went a little fast on the treadmill this time and got 1.47 miles!

Connor Chamberlain

I had a great walk with my dogs today!  It was misting and foggy so it was a peaceful mind space to be in.  Who knew a simple walk around the neighborhood would be so peaceful!

Day 5

10.4 last time, second time around made it 12 full rounds. Got an effective and quick workout in, now time to celebrate the 4th.

Matt

Easier than the first time… but still in the process!!!

Misael Nataren

Day 6

A little more challenging then last time. Loved it!

Those alternating leg lifts get me every time.  Either my legs are too heavy or my abs suck ha.  Great day 7!

Day 7

Those push ups are killers !!! and I tried better Cat/Cow still figuring out !

This kicked my butt! The deep squats were intense.  My mind plays this game where when it starts to hurt, it tells me to stop.  We are taught pain is not good, so I need to readjust my mindset to know this pain is good and is making me stronger inside and out.

Day 8

I got 1.26 miles today! A little less than last time, but was really tired after my workout. Had to push through this time!

I prefer an outdoor walk but today I wasn’t feeling up to get bundled up so I did a 30 minute indoor bike ride.  I love to feel my stamina increase everyday.  It’s more gratifying than the scale!

Day 9

Slow progress by finally getting more sets in. Reached 8 tomes through today.

Completed 13 rounds. Felt great 💪😎. Melting in sweat in my garage and it's currently 17 degrees outside....😅😨🥶🥵
