So how’d the week go? Share any thoughts about this past week in the comments: something you learned, something unexpected, squats that went right, push-ups that went wrong? Recommendations, musings, all welcome. ESPECIALLY welcome are shout outs and encouragements to your fellow queerfitters – the more specific, the better.
The Saturday challenge is to make it to the workout five minutes early and ready to go. The weather channel forecast for Saturday morning is 46 degrees and sunny.
If you’re not in the QF92 group and are following along remotely, here’s your workout:
4 rounds
21 squats
5 burpees
10 pushups
1 handstand (or other inversion) for as long as you can hold it on rounds 1, 3
30 situps on rounds 2 and 4
Then go outside and do 4×50 yard sprints at 80%, 85%, 90%, then 95%

Great week. I honestly look forward to each day’s assignment. I need to spread them out during the day more.
Zahra is a great team captain–always encouraging, always there with kindly reminders. I hear the text beep at night and I know it’s either Ro (college soph. daughter) or Zahra cheering the team on. Zahra ROCKS.

For reasons unknown, I’ve been saying no to all “social” activities…except Queerfit (and Sister Harriet).
Queerfit is so much more than health, strength, social. Not sure yet what that means, but I believe it’s true.
Thanks, Daniel, for telling me about Qfit last July at our coffee. Life-changer.

I was actually looking forward to this workout and that is quite a departure from the usual. I never thought I’d get up and go workout in the morning… in the cold… but I did. Oh, and this workout?? Sticking a fork in it cause it’s DONE.

I just want to express a bit gratitude for my team. Last week I told them to not worry about the workouts but to just focus on showing up the best way they could for that day. It’s kinda like we took QF92 and made it into QFOneDayAtATime… And they brought it, y’all!! Efia took those push ups to the next level (and actually woke up today looking forward to the workout – see above). BT kept up the momentum with the workouts every single day and encouraged Empish to the same. Nubian defended a dissertation AND completed the challenges = Dr. Badass! Anushka banged out those late night workouts by phoning a friend. Ceci showed up to the group workouts ready to work and squatted it out at SoBa with a fellow queerfitter! Empish is getting it in on those squats and push presses! And Chris has been finishing workouts and posting on the blog even though getting a late start to the program. See!? They’re amazing. I’m grateful for my team (we’re still working on a name). And I’m proud of you all. Let’s go get it! 🙂

Did this remotely! Except for the sprints, apparently there isn’t a surface in NY that isn’t covered in ice. Did high-knee running in place instead.
