Three Days, More than 1,000 reps down

Yesterday was tough rolling the big Monster Rope(TM).  My forearms, shoulders, hands in particular, (but also my entire body), were tired from the 300 reps each way on the first day.  I also Rolled a long piece of the Big Monster Rope (8-feet long) that I have in my office.  By the time I got home from work, I still had to Roll 170 reps in each direction.  Jen and I put the kids to bed and I went out back before dinner – we’re talking about 9 PM – to complete my Rolls.  With 50 Rolls to go each way, I decided to finish up with the smaller Monster Rope (3-inch diameter instead of 4).  If I’m going to make it to 10,000 reps, I have to stay healthy and not tax myself too much.

This morning I Rolled the Big Monster Rope 100 reps in each direction without stopping.  This was exhausting.  I then Rolled the smaller Monster Rope continuously for 200 reps each way – 100 reps right, 100 reps left, then sets of 10 each way until my total was 200 reps in each direction.  Exhausting.  By the time I’d finished my workout, which included more than just the Rolling, my entire shirt was drenched.

I then played around with the Big Monster Rope and smaller Monster and discovered a new maneuver.  In just 3 days, I’ve put in more than 1,000 reps Rolling in both directions.  Simply doing the reps is what its all about.  The muscle memory I’m developing will make Rolling the Monster Ropes second nature.

I hope to be capable of Rolling 300 reps continuously in both directions at some point.

Also doing other exercises with the Monster Rope and loving it. Simply handling the Big Ropes makes your body so strong and what incredible conditioning.

Watching Steve get his 300 is also great to see.  He’s making discoveries that can only be made with reps over time.

We will be shooting the Intro Instructional DVD soon.
