100 reps of anything is a challenge...So don't be a puss and knock this one out.
Looking through my "suggested videos" on youtube the other day, and came across this 100 Rep Challenge from Marc Lobliner and Mike Rashid.
What it is:
100 reps of 100 LB. DB presses as fast as possible. Max reps per set.
Doesn't sound too bad on paper. Marc finished in under 11 minutes, and Mike finished (110lbs.) in under 12 minutes. I was in for a rude awakening. My goal was 15-16 minutes. I started out pretty decent with 22 reps on my first set in under a minutes. I quickly burned out. I think I got around 8 my next set, then from there on out it was about 4-5, then sets of 3.
I finished in 21:30.... and thought my arms/shoulders were going to fall off. This was freaking hard. I definitely was feeling the burn. It was fun to mix things up from something other than the usual 4-5 sets of 6-8 reps or typical rep ranges like that.
Thanks Marc and Mike for the challenge!
