i'm biased because my busted wrist limits me
yep I'm technically not allowed to do pushups or burpees either.
but I can do them with KBs so the wrist stays straight. Just makes them so much harder.

Do them on your knuckles? Best of both worlds... It wont fuck your wrist and you get some more ROM

50 pendlay rows
will help those with bad posture, will help with thickening the back for bench and size, will help with scap retraction on all lifts where its needed...
at least this will have ment benefits, and hopefully more drive, now that im off season im up for challenges, push up challenge went out the window for me when i started getting into 6s and 5s in my last cycle lol

I'm really liking the chin-up option. Something I need work on and so will do me the world of good. Just like the push-ups have.
I also like the option of starting at 10 and then adding 1 for each day. It could be a straight 30 per day. Others like me might struggle at first but we could just do the negatives to help us improve.

^^ Something along these lines I think would be best. The challenges should target weak spots, or muscles that rarely get isolated.
Saying that, I was thinking getting people to do pistols (one legged squats) since people should have strong legs, but wither or not that means they can do pistols would be interesting.

that was the plan, hit weak spots that are often forgotten about or pushed aside. pistol squats are brutal!

Are we going to try and make these challenges something that people "can do at home", if it is meant to be a daily challenge?
As a lot of people won't have the gear required to do some (myself included). e.g. I like the idea of pendlay rows for example, but I could only do them on gym days.

Put it forward for this months poll? May have simply been missed in the pages of suggestions? I'm keen to hear your suggestion at minimum.
