It’s Day 14. 2 weeks in to the Challenge. Hopefully some of the exercise confusion is resolving itself now. Last day before the hardcore RhomWODs start!

The simple key to success is hard work and consistency, and of these, I would (and frequently do) say consistency is king.

Its Lent Challenge Day 13. Fare tredici as they say in Italy – Do the 13. Which means to hit the jackpot, and you have certainly hit the jackpot today. So: 13 Pushups in the variant of your choice. If you have to break them up then do. If you can go unbroken then well …
