I have been working on this Bring Sally Up Challenge for about 2 months now. My first time out totally underestimating how hard it was. I got 1 "round" in before tanking. Now I'm at 3 rounds. David Goggins was the 1st person I saw do it and this is the video I watched that inspired me to try it. I consider a round when the music holds you in low plank for an extended period of time. Before the form police come knockin I'm working on going lower and for longer sets. I mean I work at it hard probably 3x per week now. One thing I found I can do to extend the set rather than just stop is dropping to my knees to continue the set. I will complete it soon! 00:00:00 Intro / Rules00:01:12 Bring Sally Up Challenge00:04:46 100 Rep set add on This is a log of my daily training:https://learn.getupearlier.com/t/mikeb-workout-log Ask me anything, I’m happy to help if I can.

simple push stand up from your desk all you're doing is 30 pushups they say it's the hardest or simple hardest 30 push-ups you can do you're following a song and the song will tell you to go up and the song will tell you to go down the only rules are you has to be a perfect pushup your elbows cannot be locked in CU When you're locked in when you go down you can kind of brace yourself up against your triceps so your arms have to be at a 45° angle and when you go down your chest cannot be resting on the deck so you got to be at a 90° angle when you go down chest not on the deck and arms at a 45° angle not all the way out not pinned in 45° angle and when you come up you're coming all the way up in the lock position so you may not hear the music but you can just follow me and um let's see we can get 30 push-ups so I've been working toward these for probably two months now when I first tried it the very first time one round now I'm up to three rounds and and often I can get into the third round and do two or three more and then what I do is I drop to my knees and I continue for as long as possible it's grueling and I'm working on getting my body lower and going the distance and any time of the day that you need a quick pump a quick workout this this is it so push your chair out of the way step back put this song on follow along and do this and if you have to do it on your knees do it on your [Music] knees yeah see I'm I'm trying to get my arms bent even more this is this is hard it's efficient oh here it's quick no equipment anywhere anytime office Woods Street in a warehouse if you're you know if you're at a [Music] job anywhere Airport around wind down around [Music] [Music] so I'll stretch it out for a quick second give my muscles a chance to recover and then just get on my knees and keep doing it and I mean literally I'll do this in the woods on my knees as well I'm working toward doing this full sequence so there boom on the knees keep going if you have to start on your knees then do that if you have to start with quarter Reps don't even go all the way down do [Music] [Applause] that you can time it by reps you can time it by minutes [Music] just roasted at this point [Music] God God how do anyone do [Music] [Music] that unbelievable here you go baby here you go okay did you push up workout for the day no joke stay hard get it in I waste no time pick up my old 15 lb rusties and curl it out 100 reps so all you need is some weight that you can do a lot of times it doesn't have to be 100 reps doesn't have to be any set amount but I like to make it 100 so that I know that I'm hitting the same place and that when I'm done getting that 100 reps I know that my my arms are going to be as pumped as they can be so I leave this this 9 Minute situation 8 Minute situation and my arms and my chest my triceps my shoulders my back my whole upper body in 9 minutes gets insanely pumped so with these curls I'll change my grip I'll change the style um you know whether it's Hammer curl traditional curl and you know you'll see a little swinging in there whatever just if you do this set 100 reps let's just say you start with 5 lb dumbbells or 10 lb dumbbells you'll know what I'm doing here and it may seem a little swingy but at the end of the day you're getting that work in and trust me it's unbelievable what it does it's very efficient um something I wish I had learned a long time ago um but I've been doing these for probably I don't know s or eight years now and it's part of the evolution of my arms they didn't they didn't used to have um very good definition they didn't used to be as big as they are I attribute the growth of them to exercises like this where my arms respond better to longer sets of more concentrated weight rather than trying to get heavy weights up and down in perfect form heavy being 3 five seven reps those sets don't that my body doesn't respond well to that at least for my biceps other parts of me do and I think that's a hard thing to figure out over time is which body parts are going to respond to which types of exercises or the lengths of of sets but for me my biceps and my triceps clearly respond to lengthier sets of very concentrated and in some cases loose form where I just keep going and going and going can I get one more can I get one more yeah and it keeps getting more and more pumped and deeper and deeper into those muscles so step back from your desk throw down a set of Bring Sally Up Throw Down a lengthy set set of curls get back to work on the next hour go for a 5-minute walk 10-minute walk the next hour just bend over and try to touch your toes and stretch a little bit you know you work at a desk like me damn digital dude those two things together really do it wow got to work it out they say sitting is the new cigarette that doesn't seem very good so let's get up and get moving
