Today I did the 50 burpee challenge, in case you don't remember, the last time I attempted this challenge it took me just over 12 minutes.
In case your not sure what burpees are, here is my latest video:
Burpees are probably the toughest form of bodyweight conditioning their is, you are challenged both physically and mentally and it brings on unbearable fatigue.
So I began today's challenge a little nervous knowing how difficult it would be.
Has I began the challenge I felt tiredness overtake my body and I felt like stopping, it seemed to take forever and I wasn't looking forward to looking at my digital watch at the end.
After I had finished my 50th rep I picked my watch up to check my time, expecting it to be in the 12 to 13 minutes range.
Boy was I in for a shock!
My time.....6 Minutes and 50 seconds!!!!!!!!!!
WOW!
I nearly halved my previouse time, just goes to show that if you stick at something, you will see improvements, and fast.
Doing timed challenges such has this helps you track progress and lets you know if you need to change anything.
I highly recommned this form of training.
Thanks for reading.

This blog will chart my progress to ultimate strength and fitness. I aim to lose fat and gain muscle while training. I will create my own workouts while also using methods from other sources. This project will involve hard work and sacrifice. All this will be done in my own home has I have no time to go to the gym, I will always train alone. I do not have a big budget for expensive supplements or flashy equipment, their are no gimmicks or gadgets that I endorse, just dedication! By Jamie Wadman

When you dread something it seems to always take longer than it actually does. Way to go on the time improvement! Keep pushing yourself!
Jamie,
Congrats on your continuing improvement. I've set a similar goal to you, but I'm somewhat stuck in my routine currently. My goal is to do 1000 continuous push ups, and i'm up to 37 these days -- not really progressing very quickly. But I'm happy to have found your site! It gives me inspiration. I'll definitely link to it from my site too... 1000pushups.com.
Keep it up!
Thanks guys, Jack, I'll do the same with your site.
Its good that you are improving. The decision to carry out a fitness program requires a lot of dedication, willpower, patience. Keep up the good work!
Strict burpees require that touch your chest to the ground and touch your hands together above your head to show that you are completely upright. You're not doing the entire movement.
