After seventy reps, I began to cluster in threes and twos. Soon, the cluster was one rep, stagger over and sit down. I monitored my water consumption, three 52 ounce mugs of water for the 100 reps. The next day, I would weigh 216, the following 214. As the reps near 100, it isn t lifting anymore, it is the summit of Mount Everest.
Most people die on the way down.
The short answer is that you can t train for the 100 rep challenge. It is like those high school teachers that hand their students an egg for a week and everyone pretends it is like raising a child. Knowing where you left your egg is not exactly the same as caring for a newborn. Doing twenty singles is a great workout, but it doesn t mimic the stress of knowing you are one-fifth the way there. Yet, there are some things I would recommend.
