Good luck with this David! Always great to have a challenge to work for rather than sort of grinding out sessions "aimlessly" as we can all do. Lots of burpees for you in the next couple of months!👌

Yes indeed Duncan. Lots of burpees ahead for sure. I did the navy seal workout today and was pretty pleased with the outcome. I certainly have a bit of work to do though to get to 120 reps in 20 minutes.

Don't go full Busy-Dad, you'll need short shorts..... Go for it mate! Like I say, I've got some extra time this end of 2024, I might do a few sooner than expected along with my Supercharged Program, as no doubt your videos will motivate me!

@@DavidWhitten you’re welcome. Training is consistent. No major breakthroughs. Pull-ups are now clean from hanging position and can do 1 - 2 at a time without bands. So often do a good clean rep between each set of 10 burpees. Didn’t get kettlebells (yet) and instead invested in dip bars. I know from past experience that I could easily go down that rabbit hole and spend all my fitness time focusing on getting my kettlebell form correct and learning all the moves! So decided to resist for now 😂

@@DavidWhitten I didn’t feel like a fast paced hard work out on one of my sessions last week and so tried slow and controlled time under tension 6-counts. Briefly holding the down part of the press-up and then holding the plank after pushing up - arms slowly lowering down, holding, and up and holding - was an interesting change. Haven’t seen them done that way before but arms and chest certainly felt pumped. I’ve since tried 2 pumps and 3 pumps and seals this way too. I will add it to the mix.

Will be watching all the way bro! Get that brown shirt! Get them reps in!!!!🫡

Yes sir brother👊. It will be done! Appreciate the support too man. It definitely gives me a little fire to push harder.

I did 250! I'll try again in a month or so and see if I can get 275. Maybe I'll film it next time and post it. Might just stick with the 1 pumps instead of 6 count.

@DavidWhitten

You’d probably enjoy it a lot more😂. As you know, the counting definitely increases the difficulty. I always enjoy 1 pumps, but the same can never be said for the 6 counts. Especially when going for time. Either way though Joe man, being able to bang out 250-275 burpees is always gonna be damn impressive in my book👊🇨🇦💯.

Now this is motivation. Looking forward to seeing this journey David! You can do it, no doubt. The Canuck spirit is strong!

@@DavidWhitten ha ha, sounds like we are on the same wave length here. My experience was I could hit 120 x navy seals with a simple consistent approach of 1 rep every 10 seconds. I find 6 counts are best attacked with interval sprints. Maybe 100 to start, rest and then sets of 50 and/or 25 at the end. My best so far is 253, but I can’t say it’s something I like to try a lot 🤣🤣 Anyway, salute for taking this on brother 🫡

Yeah man, I’ve tested in, as Max likes to say, and the seals will require the most attention. It’s just so much harder to add up extra reps there. 6 counts are cardio where as seals actually require the muscle endurance. If that’s not there, you simply can’t do the reps, no matter if you have the lung capacity or not. And the ending was intentional😬🤷‍♂️. I saw a guy (Nate Black is the channel) do that sort of abrupt ending. Leaves the viewer wanting more🤷‍♂️? Either that or they think your editing skills are sub par😂.

​@@DavidWhitten😅😅😅😅very cool ending, now I know 😅😅😅 yeah, TBH the only time I was getting regular 120 seals was whe I was doing very little else! The highest when not specializing was around the 110 plus or minus 2 or 3. So I think from my point of view, I would have to just do 20 min seals for a few weeks till I hit it, rest any other pushing, then do the relatively easy 6 counts a day or two later... I've only done 20min 6 counts once and I think I got 288. Hard though
