Crunch Club Challenge

Inspired by Gary Player who mentioned in a Charlie Rose interview that part of his daily exercise regime includes 1,000 crunches, BPL Fit Club has received a request to start a “Crunch Club”. Since we aim to please, from December 1st through December 23rd all interested parties are charged with the goal of reaching 1,000 crunches a day. OK, for most of us it may be a stretch to reach 1,000 crunches for the entire 23 days—but let’s aim high. Keep track of your progress, either on your personal spread sheet or on the official BPL Fit Club Crunch Club calendar conveniently located in the staff lounge. Prizes will be awarded for all levels of participation.

The crunches don’t need to be done all at one time but can be spread throughout the day. So if you happen to see one of your co-workers lying on the floor in the lounge or by their cubical make sure they aren’t doing a quick ten crunches before calling 911.
