don’t guess, OK, actually count. I’m going to say 50 even though I get short of breath by 30 some and I could, of course, do a few more if you offered me money.
so I mean how many with good form and not killing yourself.
I googled this question earlier this week and some folks were saying 2000 :eek: but I don’t know if they meant all at once. because eek!
Oh I’m not sedentary. Just had bad experiences seeing how many of an exercise I can do. For example, the time I ruined my shoulder doing something like this with burpees.
My guess would be at least several hundred. Two thousand doesn’t sound terribly crazy to me, but I’m a little out-of-shape at the moment. I can’t find the current world record, but I found one guy in 1979 who did 27,000 in a row.
None. My knees didn’t like them before I suffered a torn meniscus last year, and they sure don’t like them any better now.
I can do the turned-out ballet version though - eschappe from second to first or second to fourth - with no knee problems, so if I’m in a group class where jumping jacks are called for, I do those instead. I can do at least 20 of those, maybe more. Luckily I only take group workout classes at the small specialty gym where it’s known that I have a bad knee and have many years of ballet under my belt, so that kind of expect that.
I’m completely certain that I’d get bored before I got tired, because the number at which I would get bored is awfully close to zero. I’ve never been a fan of exercise for its own sake: I do things for other reasons, and some of those things I do happen to be exercise, but that’s not why I do them.
I can’t even remember the last time I did one. Best estimate is that I could do more if I bound my chestal protrusions, since that bouncing is quite painful, but I couldn’t even guess how many before I collapsed.
