For Thursday’s challenge, we’re testing how far you’ve come with QF92.
Start the day with 5 sun salutations. Think on who you’d like to bring to Saturday’s final QF92 workout.
Warm-up with 3 rounds of (5 pushups, 5 squats, 10 jumping jacks, 1 spiderman stretch)
Then for 1 point:
- Max reps of perfect push-ups. Good solid plank, nose to ground, good looking push-ups. Rest as long as you like – a few hours is fine. Then,
- 100 squats in as few sets as possible. If you can find a tempo that allows you to do all 100 in a row, awesome. Rest as long as you like. Then,
- Max hold inversion. Time yourself.
Let us know in the comments how you did, and whether you improved on your numbers from earlier in the year. Be honorable with your push-ups especially! If you did not add to your max number but improved on your form, all the better.

Done. In my office at Morehouse. And I’m sweating like a horse in my work clothes. Poor students.
Aimed for 15 pushups, but did 20. Aimed for two sets of 50 situps, but did it in one set. Aimed for 2 minutes of plank…and just barely made it.
Considering that my shoulder was a mess at the beginning of Q92, I’m ecstatic to have come this far. Thanks to coaches, team, and the whole dang bunch of you’ns. Could not, not, not, not have gotten a fraction this far without you.
You all rock beyond rock.

Done! 5 push ups (15 on my knees). Squats in two sets. Still can’t do an inversion without getting too lightheaded!

Fun challenge! So, did 17 push-ups. Squats I did in one set, though I alternated types of squats. May have been a few short pauses in both but hey. 1:02 handstand against the wall, and subtracted the 3 seconds it took to get me into it. #holdingmyselfaccountable
Go QueerFit!!!!!

21 pushups. Squats in 2 sets. Still working on the inversions. Last bent waist handstand led to a week of wrist soreness, so I’m working on wrist flexibility w wrist stretch courtesy Coach Kung Li. Down dogging it in the mean time. Definite progress in lots of areas and a few goals left to work towards. Great place to end! QF92 is amazing! Shout out to Coach Glo and the #nolabels crew.

1/2 of my squats done before work, just finished the other 50. My nose doesn’t QUITE touch the floor YET but it’s mighty close! STILL better than ever. I had to limit the inversion to a minute b/c I’ve been feeling a little dizzy this evening. Will try again tomorrow though. I haven’t been able to show up and show out at ALL like I wanted to this go ’round w/QF but I can’t tell you how much I appreciate having these daily challenges and just KNOWING y’all are out there GETTIN IT. ❤
