Day 1 Started 6:20am – Finished 7:20am – Exactly an hour with 100 Get Ups – I had a 5 minute break in between the squat routine and the get ups because my son wanted me to put in a DVD and I lost another 4-5 minutes setting up the squat bar after the hi pulls.

The program on day 1 is hard core but achievable – the high rep floor wipers were the most difficult. I haven’t sweated so much in a strength training practice before.
I almost gave up after the 50 get ups but the intention to do 100 was strong so I persisted.

I had a really strange reaction at the end of training where I couldn't stop laughing when I realised that I completed the session in exactly 1 hour
