5 minutes of jumping jacks!

If you think five mins of jumping jacks is bad, then listen to me! I do like 200 jumping jacks, 200 push-ups, & 200 sit-ups EVERY DAY!!!!!!!!! Well, that's because I'm a Level 5 gymnast.

You 'do like 200 etc' or do you really do them? If so, that's great.

I'm sure she really does them, I used to be a gymnast and we did tons of that kind of thing.

Alright…but I have (adult) friends and a cousin who are professional body-builders, and when I've worked out with them I have never seen them do 200 of anything at ONE time without break. I work out quite frequently, (not as much now with the NBB), and I don't think I could do 200 push ups in one workout. And it's not that i'm out of shape, (I don't mean to boast) but I have a very well toned core and rather strong arms (i've been told, and observed myself). I'm not saying you are lying, it's just hard to believe. (but i will believe, help my unbelief) ;)

Ummmmmm….don't you take a break sometime or do you do it with no breaks?

EDIT- I don't like jumping jacks at all!!!!!! I can't do to many……me favor weights!!!!

It's very well possible that she does 200 at a time. My older brother used to do Karate, and they often did 100 at a time. They did it so fast, and they hardly seemed out of breath once finished, that it seems likely that they could have done hundred more without any trouble :)

How fast can you run a mile?

It could be possible because gymnasts tend to be lighter than most people.

I can only do 100!!!!! I'm only 60 pounds!!!!!

Well, I don't know if she does them all at once. I used to only do 60 (but then, I was only 6 :P). Everett also has a point that gymnasts are usually not body builders. ;) I used to be one when I was a kid and now I'm an adult (plus two days!!) and I still don't weigh 100 lbs. so I can't imagine how little I weighed when I was 6 or 7.

This is random, I know, but how tall are you Madi?

I just did 100 pushups! I am not out of breath but under my shoulder hurts ( I did them no break)

She is roughly 5' 2". like she says in her thread "Madi"

This is random, but how tall or short are you?

It is possible to do 200 push-ups. I've never done that many before, but if you have enough chest strength then I'm sure you could do it.

I'm 5' 7" :) Why do you want to know?

I'll believe…but I have had many people tell me they do that much and more, and then confess that they were lying. I am NOT saying it is this way in this case, but I am just telling you why I was skeptical

Yup! Roughly 5'2" ;) Why did you want to know?

@Noah: Yeah, I totally see why you were skeptical. :)

I know it's not in this case for sure!

Man… everyone here is so strong… I did 21 pushups in a row last week and that's the most I have ever done in a row.

The most I've done in a row is 35… but that was almost a year ago. I can't imagine doing that much now… I've let myself get a little out of shape…

I'm not very strong! I bet you can beat me in a arm wrestle in 3 seconds….

Hmm… Maybe in less than that. ;) But of course, I don't know how strong you are. :D

I did 25 in a row last week. I probably could go to 35 or 40 if I really wanted to.

Knowing your size, that's pretty good! :D Uh… no offense… ;P

lol. that's why it isn't as impressive if Madi does them compared to me doing them lol

SBG - your what? 5foot 9?

Knowing your size, that's pretty good! :D Uh... no offense... ;P

LOL

that's why it isn't as impressive if Madi does them compared to me doing them

Hey! You're calling me small. :P LOL…I'm quite used to that. I'm beginning to believe it must be true. ;)

You're less than a hundred, right?

Yes sir!

Wow, I'm five years younger than you, and more than forty pounds heavier! ;D

You're thirteen? lol…Yeah, I know this little kid and he weighs as much as I do. :P It's kinda weird…
The weirdest thing is having 90 lbs printed on your driver's license!

nuff said then lolling for real now.

wha?

Ach, sorry, no. I'm fifteen. I thought you turned twenty. facepalm

90?!?!?!?!?!?! sorry if that was over the top.

2 years younger and 60 pounds heavier

lol…I thought you were fifteen. :P Thank you kindly for the compliment on my maturity levels. :D :P

Ya know guys…it would be pretty weird if y'all weighed as much as I do. :P Just sayin'…
girls are naturally kinda lighter I think. And hopefully you have more muscle than I do and that weighs more than fat so that probably helps you weigh more. ;)

Why are you laughing at me so much?!? ;)

@Madi–I thought I had heard somewhere that you were nineteen, so I thought you turned twenty. So much for that… :P

@RBC–I didn't realize until just now that you asked earlier how tall I am. You guessed 5"9'. I haven't checked my height in a while, but I think that's about it. :)

Yes, I think if I weighed as much as you I'd be dying or dead. :P

I'm not quite ready to be 19. :P I'm just starting to realize that I'm 18 (speaking of that…I should register to vote ;)

LOL…Yup! prolly true. :P

You totally should! I can't wait to vote when I'm eighteen… Just gotta wait for the next presidential election…

I was laughing all the way through this conversation :) :P

:D I couldn't believe I missed this last one by a year! :( I guess it wouldn't have really mattered due to some of the stuff that went on…..

I'm kind of having a hard time believing it, but in the next presidential election, I'll be able to vote! :O

@Rachel–Same here! Yes, it is pretty hard to believe. :D

@Madi–But hey, every vote counts, right? :)

I'm getting old! :p LOL!

True!

Rachel, are you fifteen or sixteen? Depending on your answer, you're either a little younger or a good bit older than me. :)

Just turned 16 in July :) You're 15, right?

Correct. I turned 15 in May, so you are a good bit older than me. ;)

Not too much older :) just about 14 months :D
