Sometimes it's better to light a flamethrower than curse the darkness

Like a lot of us, I have an exercise-nut colleague.

She's pretty cool though. Occasionally she tries to get people to join in with her "challenges." She's done 50 pull-ups/chin-ups every day in July! (I have done 0 in my whole life. I haven't tried since it was one of the things I sometimes had to fail to do in front of my whole grade-school class as part of the President's Physical Fitness Test.)

For August, she's doing 100 bodyweight movements every day, which seems much more manageable to me because some of those I have heard of and am physically capable of. And, between the instructor actually getting a holiday and me missing another week with my work trip, I've been my gym classes a lot lately and without external structure I never exercise. So I said I'd take up her challenge.

This morning I was looking at the list of exercises she sent for us to choose from, and thought I'm tired just reading the list.
