Super I loved it I did 8 rounds

ive just finish this workout
i did 80 squats and 80 R push up as well

My score is 84 squats and 80 push ups…my hubby got 120 squats and 117 push ups

Ok Zuzana, those reverse push-ups killed me, but I managed to get 90 of them in and 90 sandbag squats. Not bad….I just have to keep doing them and eventually I will get stronger and they will get easier :). See you domani (tomorrow).

you are amazing…. thank you.

Hey Zuzana & Freddie,

I just wanted to let you know that I started a meetup group in Boulder, Colorado (http://www.meetup.com/BodyRockers-of-Boulder-Colorado), a few days ago. Today, I got my first new member. We’re going to meet near a restaurant and talk about how awesome you are! Yay!!
And, Zuzana, I love your beautiful post of gratitude and love for life. I feel the same way about wanting to live a long-healthy life. You are totally my mentor.

Tons of Love,

Tia

I felt compelled to tell you Zuzana, that you are doing a tremendous job! Every day I get up between 4:30 and 5 just to do these workouts because of the amount of life they give me and because I know the effects that it has, and I am happy and enjoy them! I’m 18 years old currently and have been through some intense hardships where I sank into a deep depression where I became severely suicidal. Long story. When going for a check up to get help. My doctor said that since I was so young, she would refuse any medication for it could’ve made me much worse, and told me I had to exercise. Walking two times a week, a mile each time and at that point in my life, I refused! My mother had to literally drag me out the door. And I just think now look at me! I have respect for every aspect of life and I want to live as long as I can by being healthy and just living the life God made for me to live! And you have been a major part in getting me into this state and changing my life. I can’t thank you enough for what you do! But thank you! And keep up the amazing work 

Zuzi!! I wasn’t feeling this workout for some reason or another so i decided to try to beat one of my old scores. I remembered the “sexy monkey is back” workout and wanted to try it again, and laughed when it just happened to be almost exactly a year ago that I did it!
My score in 2010 was 30:53
My score in 2011 was 19:26

I IMPROVED 11 minutes!!

YAY!! Thank you SOOO much for everything!

I’ve tried before, but never made it through one of your workouts. Today, Jan. 4, 2011, I made it. On my way to losing my bad back and spongy gut.

I’m always one day behind, as I hit the gym early in the day and I’m 6 hours behind over here!! haha! I can’t wait to tackle this tomorrow. The light weight will help me work on my form and keep my hips in line (I have an alignment issue, but I’m working on it), and of course will likely kill me!

I really liked your post as well! It’s nice to be reminded to FEEL it.. and it feels good. I’m down a few pounds and almost back into my regular work pants (I had to let two pair out an inch and keep washing and wearing them.. eesh)!! One small, but completely focused and energized, step at a time!! :)

Zuzana,

Happy New Year! You are a complete inspiration!

Are there any Alaskan Bodyrockers out there? I am always telling people about Bodyrock, and have yet to meet someone that has already been Rockin’ their Body.

burpee beatdown was a awesome workout
my time 21:32
my wifes time 21:36

still recovering from yesterdays burpee workout [ouch!] but today’s workout was more forgiving. had 100 squats and 8/9 reverse pushups. The consistency in just doing your workouts make a huge difference in all aspects of my life; from confidence to being physically fit; im starting to understand that just 15-30 mins of any high intensity workout everyday goes a long way to shaping not only the body, but also the mind. Thanks Zuzana

Hi Zuzana,

I picked up this exercise as my first at getting back to working out and getting some fitness. I didn’t have the sandbag and so I did 20 squats per rep. I ended up with 8 sets of squats (160 squats) and 8 sets of reverse push ups (80 reverse push ups).

Thanks to you and your site for encouraging me back out of the lazy chair :)

Hi Vegan,

Your muscles can be exercised every day, but you need a proper nutrition that will help with recovery. Our workouts are not long only intense and we do different workout each day – therefor you don’t need to worry about training the same muscle groups each day.

I know how you feel. There are days when I feel motivated by the scores and days when I feel a little sheepish posting mine. You’ll get there. And remember, you’re keeping score for yourself and competing against yourself. I did modifications for the reverse pushups. My first 3 sets I did with two chairs and a broom but it made me feel a bit nervous…the chairs were wobbling. So then I did Santana push ups and the second to last set I did them ‘modified’. Do what you can and every workout you’ll get stronger. Good luck tomorrow. :-D

It’s nap time so Mama worked out :-) 100 squats and 90 push ups. First 3 sets with 2 chairs and a broom. That wasn’t working so well for me. I was a bit nervous and it was slowing me down so I switched to Santana push ups. On the 8th set I even did those modified!!! And pushed for the last 10 without a modification. I did 500 skips in 7 min afterwards and am feeling pretty happy with my self I have to admit.

I have been following you guys for 2 years, and I have a ton of clients who now do the same. I have started a “water Bodyrocker”type class, for my older population members and those recovering from surgery or stroke, ect… your ideas are amazing and I belive that the US will come knocking again, and you will inspire millions!!!

Same here. But today I just did it! I must say my legs are pretty sore.
I don’t have the equipement so I did the dynamic squats and regular push ups.

80 squats w/ 15lbs backpack and 78 reverse push ups.

I did exactly 11 rounds – 110 Squats and 110 Push Ups but I really doubt about the form of the Push Ups, because instead of dip station I use two chairs (without broomstick) and I pull myself up by holding the backrests. As the time counts down and I become tired, the chairs are moving and sometimes it must be looking really bizarrely, but my arms still hurt so I guess I’m gaining some benefits from that..

As you talk about all the energy of this community, do you have an idea how many of us could be here? I’m really interested in that. If only it was possible to have a profile here..the communication among bodyrockers would be so much easier and maybe even such cowards as me would put their photo there:) Everybody could have his/her training log and other stuff there, that would be just amazing! I hope you guys are already workin’ on it;)

Just finished this workout, started with the squats and then reverse push ups.

squats 90
push ups 80

Good start considering I have worked Monday and Tuesday (12+ hour shifts)

BTW, The interview was great, you too are awesome and I’m sorry the USA wont work with you, to bad for them because they are missing out. You have my support 100%. <3

Oh, the reverse pushups are killers still :)
My score: 90 squats, 86 reverse pushups (squats with 6kg sandbag).
Added 18 minutes of jumprope jumping (went for 20 minutes, but at the end I had to go to bathroom, hehe) That brings me to my question: After doing these jumprope sessions, I kinda have “problems” with my bladder…I have to go like every 30 minutes… anybody else experiencing the same? It happens only after jumproping… (Maybe I am just weird….)

I hear you Anangel-Texas as I just started the new year promising myself I would follow Zuzana. I did the lunge kick up on Sunday and could hardly move for 2 days. Though I didn’t follow Zuzana I did go to the gym and ran for 30 minutes. Today I did the workout and I got 90 squats with 10 pds weight and only 50 reverse push up with two chair and a broom handle. Have to say that after 5 reverse push up they were more like half push up. I then changed it to regular pushup as and after 10 I did compromise pushups. I am determine not to give up and improve with time.

we are working on this in fact – it’s the next upgrade we are planning on :) we get just under 2 million visits a month right now.

Hi there – we are working on todays video still – we will have it live soon and it will be available for viewing :)

Hi Barbie – we are working on some diet stuff and Zuz is just getting ready to write her final exam for her fitness nutrition certification :)

Lol I guess I’ve done from my heart. 150 Reverse push ups (I dont have dip station so i do them like i use position (legs) of normal reverse push ups and just not pushing up but taking hands on floor). And 157 Sandbag squats (Using my school bag filled with all books, thats about 9kg)

“DO IT DO IT” So I did it. First Bodyrock workout matter of fact first workout for the New Year!! I feel great! It was hard but I did it. On my way to a better version on me. Love that they are short work outs that I can do while I watch my kids. I’m a mother of 2 boys (6 and 4) and one girl (1). I was recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease (no gluten for me) and have changed my diet and now that I am not sick all the time I can finally focus on creating a stronger body. Thank you!!

love this one!! :) I did exactly 12 rounds (120 Sandbag Squat – with 8kg and 120 Reverse push ups)!!

Thank you :)

wow im surprised! I did 13 of each so thats 130 of each exercise. I thought I wouldn’t reach to even 90. I did what someone else suggested, doing the reverse pushups on the chair. It was really hard though, I can barely walk now :)

I am so sore from the last 3 workouts!!!! My legs feel like tree trunks! BUT, I did this workout anyway. I did 100 squats w/ 12 lbs in my sand bag and 90 rev push ups. I have not purchased the dip station yet, so I went to the gym for this workout and used a squat rack and olympic bar for the push ups. This is only my 4th day as a BodyRocker, but so far I LOVE IT!!!!!

Great job you two!!!!

HELLLLPPPPPP…..So I have been doing these workouts a little over a month. But I am really wondering about the after effects. Alot of days I can feel pulsations in my legs and back and arms at times when im resting or just sitting watching tv…it almost feels like im still working out….Is this normal sensations I should be feeling…However my body is changing…Im wondering?????

I was inspired by your story to add a write up to my website and to always be on the look out for independent, talented, great people! Thanks so much! :-)

Oh my god! The first workout I completed. My arms are shaking.
Squats without sandbag: 90 reps
Chair Dips: 90
Next time I will try to add some weight for the squats.

Done. 10 and a half rounds. :). With a barbell of 9 kgs used in place of the bag (that I don’t own). Now some jump rope! :)

Who hoo! thanks Freddy and Zuzana! ~2 million visits a month, that’s incredible.

I did 88 squats and 80 reverse push ups. I did the push ups with two chairs and they kept moving on me so I caught myself wasting time fixing the chairs.

My score: 74 Squats + 5kg and 70 Reverse Pushups…

And my calves burn like hell from the exercise challenge before (1000 Jump Rope Skippings) and the 20mins of rope skipping yesterday… I never did rope skipping so that my legs and calves are just wondering what I’m doing there… ;))

One question – I have no dip station so what the alternative for the reverse push up? Can’t do this with the chairs either they moving.

sandbag squat:140
reverse push up: 132
thank you for motivation!

I did 10 rounds; squats w/ 6kg weight x 100 reps and push ups x 100 reps. I did an extra 100 reps of swings and 100 reps of V crunch. I pretty happy with my score! Thanks Zuzana

Best

Carol

i did
118 sandbag squats (20 kg)
110 revers push-ups :)

2 million visits a month… that is so awesome, let’s shoot for 2 million a day… it would be a nation of Body Rockers…

Just ordered my dip station, I’ve wanted one since I first saw it in the Prague videos. I can’t wait!!! You guys rock!!

Hello Bodyrockers across the world!!

First exercise I have done in about 11 years. I did 4 full rounds and on the fifth I just could do no more.
50 Squats
43 Reverse Push-Ups

Since I could not do the full 10 reps of the Reverse P/U I started doing regular P/U for 8 reps. Anything to keep moving!!!

I am fully planning on keeping up with these workouts every day!

I was having a late day, but told my husband that I had to do my workout before dinner. I only did 80 each, cuz it took some seconds to get from one to the other after each set. I did regular knee pushups and put 20pounds into a beach sack for the squats.

Yet another great workout, Zuz and Freddy! Right now my arms feel like jello….:)

Welcome – I’m glad you found us!

Absolutely!

We are working on it :)

I did 101 squats and 100 reverse push-ups. I am still in beginning mode so usually around the 7th or 8th push up I couldn’t go full mode but I still pushed it as hard as I could each round! For my ninja bag I am using my water back pack that I use when I go cycling. It also great because I have water on the go!

z

Just after the workouts :) but of course you can do it after the challenges too if you like :)

Yay, I finally registered myself with Disqus! Hopefully my comments won’t disappear anymore. :)

Since my new sandbag hasn’t arrived yet, I used my home-made 28-pound one, but the handles are broken so I had to sort of cradle it in my arms in front. My arms were getting tired just from holding the sandbag while doing the squats, so I was dying doing the r. pushups.

Sandbag squats: 120
R. pushups: 120

The timer went off just as I was grabbing the sandbag again!

Okay, now my arms are seriously killing me! Then I had to go and shovel the driveway!

Awesome! Thank you so much Freddy! I wish her the best of luck on her exam! I’m sure she will do amazing on it! =D Looking forward to the new diet stuff!

Many blessings to you guys! And I can’t wait to get in shape! =)

-Barbie

I want a big huge sticker for the back of my car to show off I’m a proud Bodyrocker, there’s something else for you to work on Freddy!

Here’s part 2 of my indoor workout today. I did the sandbag and burpee workout of yesterday first (nasty warm up!) and this came next. I used 2×15 pound weights in place of the sandbag for the squats (my sandbag is on backorder…I broke down!). I did 130 squats and 120 reverse push ups. My arms are getting shakey…but I think I have one more workout to go before I am caught up :) See you at the latest workout posting next :)

Holy cow!

Yep…I am! I am in the San Fernando Valley…

hi there , just wanted to say that the burpee fusion was a killer only made it to 18 and it took me 18.45 flet sick and nearly passed out but next week i am going to try for the full 20 with out passing out. love your site so much you have hleped me loose 2inchs off my legs which have always been a problem area.thanks for all your hard work you do on your site to keep us all in shape.

I did 130 and 130, I think next time I do this I will do weighted squats!

I did 110 squats and 108 Reverse Pushups. I don’t have the dip station so I hang a broomstick between the seats of two tall bar chairs (I’m only 5’4″ so I end up with my hips a teeny bit higher than my shoulders but it works out pretty well – still a KILLER workout). Then I shadow jump roped for 8 minutes afterward.

I need to work on my coordination with the actual rope – when I try to get a rhythm going I trip up after like 10. That’s why when I need to keep my heart rate up – I shadow jump because then there’s no stopping. Anyway, so I’ll be working on my actual jump roping technique additionally to the jumping at the end of the workouts.

Hope I can get this figured out – anyone have any tips abt not tripping up a jump rope?

xoxo everyone!!
PP

I did 100 Squats with a 30 lb barbell, I think they are called, and 100 reverse push ups.
I also incorporated my 20 minute skipping session at the end. I did 1700 skips in 20 minutes. My calves
were sore by the end, my hamstrings too I’m thinking from the burpees from yesterday with the explosive jumps.

Anyway, great exercise challenge! I am a day behind but I am really looking forward to the next workout, which is with the commando push up. YAY! :)

With Love,
Sarah

I’m a Colorado BodyRocker too! I’ll check out the site… :)

Hello Zuzana and freddy!!! First of all I want to thank you for everything you guys do for us for all the bodyrockers, for sharing your workouts, for making us feel good about our self! for sharing your life with us, I feel very lucky to have found this site!!! so thank you so much!!!!
I did 100 squats and 90 reverse push ups and for the first time my boyfriend did it too and he did 80 squats and 80 push ups so I beat him :) I love the 20 min of skipping rope but it’s so very hard still!
THANKS FOR EVERYTHING AND LOTS OF HUGS FROM PARAGUAY!!!!

It’s a cool idea!

I complete this on Jan 5 in 12 minutes.

1. Sandbag squat – 127 reps with a 25lb bag
2. Reverse push up – 120 reps

Thank your for your comment, I will try that next time, how long time schould I stay in the cold water?

:-D
Yes I realy like that model that are front opened. I have never seen a sport bra like that in Sweden. What model did you order? They are all very good looking.

I’m from Utah too. It’d be fun to create a meetup group here as well.

Sandbag = 143
Reverse PU = 140

haha :)

So 2nd day into the summer body work out! I am moving to Austrailia in 5 months time, this is my driving force! I started the day off in a bit of a hormonal grumpy mood. Tried to find excuese not to do a work out ( the fact i don’t have a dip station or a sand bag). I decided squats without a sandbag is better then none at all, and I used the old trick of a mop and two small coffee tables. My mood has gone and I feel pumped up and ready for the day. Now I have to cycle to watch my boyfriend play rugby. It 20mins each way. So I am going to put my ipod on and cycle hard. My reps weren’t as high as some of you lovely fit people on here, but at least I got up and made myself DO IT!

Squats = 90
Reverse Push Ups = 84

Squats (8kg): 134
Reverse PU: 130

I think I need more weight in my bag next time. Since I climb, the reverse push ups are not too difficult for me. Too bad I don’t have a real dip station, then I could elevate my legs.

Hi there! Well I can tell you guys that we are currently already working on the next set of upgrades to the site. This include an expanded “BodyRockers” section that will allow you guys to set up your own blogs (which I think will include profiles) right here on the site. Anyone who wants to blog their workout results, keep track of their progress, share pictures, videos, recipes, stories etc – whatever will be able to do so. It will be much more dynamic and connected. It will allow those of you who are interested in participating in the site your own space to make connections with other BodyRockers. The “where are you from” post is a great idea!

flipped the order, so did 11+ round of:

115 Rev Pushups, on homemade Rings
110 SQ, with 45lb oly Bar

Hi Andrea,

I think it’s possible to hit your head, but I didn’t. My problem with it was my had wheels on one set of legs and if you were not careful it would start moving and make the inverted pull up also a crab walk. 8-)

–Chris

I really this workout!! =) (in contrast of last one)
It was so funny and challenging))
I did :
Sandbag Squat – 110
Reverse Push Up – 110
Love it) Zuzanna and Freddy – thanks for doing my life better)

Did this again today :) My score: 100 squats (7kg sandbag) + 99 Reverse Pushups. Today my pushups were not as lame as there were last time I did this :D I was pushing to go all the way up in all reps. What really helps me with these is not focusing on the movement, but trying to imagine how my back muscles are working. If I only connect with my hands on this, I usually get exhausted very quickly…

i like your nick….:}

I’m waiting for this guy to come and repair my kitchen counter since 8 this morning.  I didn’t want to be in the middle of my workout when he gets here..  But now, I’m so cold, I’m going to do this workout.  Let’s see if he arrives.  I’ll be back later with my scores!

Just as I wantad to do the Bad Girl Wo. this appeared on the site and I thought that God wants me to do this. He was right. after yesterdays Hot mess I wouldn’t have been able to do that, but I nedded to work on my upper body so bad. As I’m writing right now – right after my workout- feels like my arms want to drop down :D But it was cool so thanks ;)

Well, I wasn’t fast on this one : 90 squats with 2X8 lbs dumbells and 85 reverse push ups.  The counter guy did not arrives…  it’s like at the restaurant when you wait for your plate, you finally decide to go to the restrooms and when you come back, your plate is on the table!  So I figured that if I do my workout, the counter guy will get here.. but no.  I’m not cold anymore, and that is an awsome thing.  

squats: 100
reverse  push-ups: 110

my scores:
11 rounds …so it is 110 squats and 110 reverse push ups
It was hard for me, I am not back to my old self after being sick…very hard
