What's on Your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?

Morning AV, it's like 55 here this morning and I had the windows down a bit on the back roads on my way in. It's overcast and may possibly rain today, but I feel great. I honestly think I feel great because I made it to the gym this morning and busted ass. I had an incredible work out and feel great.

My gym started a challenge this week. 1500 push-ups in 30 days. So the challenge is 50 push ups a day. I did it on Monday which was the first day, and missed yesterday. I did it today, but I need to make up for yesterday so I did 30 more when I got home. I'll squeeze in 20 more throughout the day. I do 10 at a time, and I do girly pushups from my knees. At the gym this morning we were doing them with them with our feet on a step. I did 10 that way and moved back to the floor, that was HARD. We worked core and cardio today and I gotta tell you I feel PUMPED. okay. Sorry about all the endorphins leaking out, lol.

Does anyone want to do the challenge with me? No prize (I think I'll get a bracelet from my gym when it's over, but I can't really offer a prize here, lol)

QOTD. I have to say it's any Monty Python movie. I mean, come on, every one of their movies is absolutely ridiculous, but I LOVE THEM! I will have to watch The Holy Grail this weekend, it makes me happy. BTW, I haven't seen Empire Records for a very, very long time. I loved that movie when I was younger, since I was in the demographic it was made for.

Slayer, Anthrax and Death Angel are coming in concert in September. I really want to go, but my hubby HATES that music. Wondering if I should take my oldest kid. I'll have to ask him if he wants to go. I've seen Anthrax before and I enjoyed the show (it was litterally 20 years ago, I was 23 the last time I saw them.)

have a great day everyone.

 Edited the time in the challenge.  Only 1500 push ups in 30 days.  

Also going to change my QOTD answer since AV calls foul on Monty Python. I'll pick Legally Blonde. I actually own it on DVD.

I'll do it! 

I just changed the time because I saw that my gym posted on facebook, it's only a 30 day challenge.  50 push ups a day for 30 days!  

Even better!

You got it going on Deanna!!!!!!!!!

I bow to you!  There is one exercise I HATE and that is push ups, I would rather do 5000 squats until I puke before I would do a push up, so you go girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ewww, squats suck. They are the same to me, they all suck! I think I'm going to add sit ups into my challenge.  50 sit ups a day as well. I need the ab work. 

I'm in too! I'll do 50 setups and 50 push-ups a day!

I can't do push ups because I have a messed up shoulder, but I can plank.  Although when I could do push ups I would have agreed with Daisy . . . I'd rather do squats

Oh goodness, I think I LOVE planks!  We did some planking this morning, I only did 30 seconds each set but for some reason being on the floor planking makes me sweat more.

I am shuddering thinking of squats.  I ran that 5k after taking nearly a week off of at the gym, and then Monday was an "ass-ton" of squats, and I honestly was so sore yesterday that I was hobbling around.  I'm sore again today, but not nearly as much as I was yesterday.  I likely won't be able to hit the gym in the morning because it's my hubby's day to work out before work, but I will be doing my push-ups and sit-ups at home.  Maybe I'll add 50 squats to the mix.  

Have you done "plank jacks"  I try to do 30 of those every morning after my 40 pushups and a couple of planks.  BTW, I do a modified push up, I cannot do a real one, so either on my knees or off of a stability ball.
