Calling whales, dolphins, and the fitness community to take notice of us busting our asses with nothing but hard work and commitment.
Something doesn't seem right with the lack of recognition, so we're going to keep trying every day until more people know about our cause. Several members have started exercising because they found our posts and became inspired, so you know what to do... We've done 46 straight days of 100+ rep workouts amongst 17 people, so we're qualified and ready to expand our horizons.
If you need something else to justify more engagement, please share if in the comments section so we can improve. Otherwise, it should all be there... Please join us, help us spread the word, and/or simply reward these dedicated Steemians providing their daily workouts and blog posts with some upvote support.
9 Steemians for 3,018 total reps today (new record high reps).
More people are joining simply because they've SEEN this blog series, and wish they saw it sooner. In the spirit of helping others be healthy and join a supportive team, please help us by resteeming for visibility.
You know that exercise is important, so start with just one day of sharing 100 reps of your choice and go from there. We support each other every day, and we'll support you, so why not give it a try?
These people are creating their own original posts to prove their hard work, so please support their passion and dedication.

The Challenge: At least 100 honest reps of exercise every day. No excuses. No bullsh*t. Just actions, positivity, and results. Only post AFTER your reps are done.
If you can't contribute yet, try to eat natural foods and stay well hydrated without the sugar for now.
It's ok to start with a number you're comfortable with if you can't reach 100. You choose what exercises to do.
30 minutes of dedicated brisk walking, running, or SPINNING (new) can count as 100 reps if you're unable to lift or need to rest.
My Daily Challenge Completed - 125 reps:
-50 Straight Back Bar Deadlifts (75 pounds)
-25 Bicep Bar Curls (75 pounds)
-25 Bar Shrugs (75 pounds)
-25 Calf Bar Raises (75 pounds)
Daily Assessment: I powered up with food today. Had a pound of ground chicken, a pound of chia seed cubes, 5 oz of natural pop chips, 64 grams of protein from a natural shake, and a liter of coconut water. My body is still "worked" everywhere, but I'm trying to hit zones that aren't as sore to continue my rep streak. In the past, I wouldn't care about rushing to the gym, but I'm excited to at the end of 60 days to be able to do different exercises.
"I find it deeply satisfying to do these reps, which is a big deal. I've always hated the gym and prefer to exercise at home. But I've lacked the discipline to do it. It sort of feels like I have gym buddies now, without the hassle of going to the gym."
Please see my first post linked below for my motivation, the challenge background, rules, and details for the Steemit Silver Coin prize! It's also got some personal stuff about why I'm doing this, so it could be a good motivator.
