FIT FILM CHALLENGE PHASE 2

I'm loving this challenge series. It combines two of my very favorite things: exercise and everything comic book.

I'm making a change to how the challenge is delivered for this phase. For the next 6 movies, we will be assigning one exercise to one cue for each film. I'm splitting up the body across the week with the goal of totally exhausting one muscle group per day until we bring it all together for the Avengers: Age of Ultron.

There are 3 levels: Sidekick, Hero, and Avenger. The variation of the exercise will progress with each level. 

Stick with me and we'll get through this the only way we can: together.

IRON MAN 3

Every time some says "Mandarin"

Sidekick Level: 5 Squats

Hero Level: 10 Squats

Avenger Level: 10 Lunges per Leg

THOR 2: THE DARK WORLD

Every time any character say "the Aether"

Sidekick Level: 10 Rows

Hero Level : 10 Single Arm Rows

Avenger Level: 10 Single Arm Rows with a 3 second lowering phase

Every time any character says "Bucky",

Sidekick Level: 5 Hip Thrusts

Hero Level : 10 Hip Thrusts
