For the past couple of weeks I've been participating and a challenge at the work gym. The challenge is for 24 days/every 4 day we play the card game. The trainer pick 4 exercises, one for each suit in a deck of cards and we do the exercise however many times the face value. The Big Joker is 50 burpees and the little joker is 40 explosive pushups.

When we started this challenge 20 people signed up, the trainers said that the people that weren't serious would be weeded out. Today we did Card Game #5 there were 4 people there. The reason I wrote the whole thing out is I want to remember this challenge and what I went thru for a damn tshirts. As on of the participates teenage kid told us "you know that sell tshirts at the store, right?" Smart kid.
