Okay, so today I decided to tackle the “Tapout Skyscraper” workout. I’d seen it floating around online, and it looked… intense. And let me tell you, it lived up to the hype.
Getting Started
First, I gathered my stuff. Just needed some space, a timer (my phone worked fine), and a whole lot of willpower. I did a quick warm-up, some jumping jacks and stretches, because, you know, gotta avoid pulling something.
The Workout
- Round 1: Started with basic squats. Easy enough, right? Did about 20 of those, focusing on keeping my back straight and going low.
- Then, it was onto push-ups. My arms were already feeling it a bit, but I managed 15. Not my best, but I pushed through.
- Next up, lunges. 10 on each leg. Felt the burn in my thighs, big time.
- After that,burpees. Oh, the dreaded burpees. I only managed to bang out 10 of these before collapsing in a sweaty heap.
I took a short break, maybe a minute, just to catch my breath and chug some water.
- Round 2: I repeated the whole thing, but this time I was already tired. Squats were harder, push-ups were a struggle, lunges were wobbly, and burpees… well, let’s just say I was grateful to be done with them.
I kept going, round after round. Honestly, I lost count of how many I did. I just set my timer for 30 minutes and pushed myself until it beeped.
The Aftermath
When the timer finally went off, I was a mess. Sweat everywhere, muscles screaming, lungs burning. But I did it! I finished the “Tapout Skyscraper.”
It was brutal, but also kind of awesome. I definitely felt a sense of accomplishment. Would I do it again? Maybe. Probably. After a few days of recovery, of course. Right now, I’m just going to enjoy the feeling of being completely and utterly exhausted.
