So they make me do the lady ones so the rest of the class isn't held up waiting for me.

Johnny Blaze Aug 2008 5:29pm, 5 Aug 2008 556 posts	0 Johnny Blaze Hmm I dunno. I would say a manly is about 1.5 - 2 laydees. I can do 50 manlies but doubt I could do 100 laydees - 200 would be out of the question (insert joke here ----->) But you have to be at the point when you can do manlies at all - when I did some laydee ones on sat I always felt like I could do a few more but with the full on ones you enter a state of catastrophic collapse very quickly! BTW our group is now 60 strong - if you haven't joined, please feel free! I am sure we are the buffest group on FE by a long chalk (or will be, anyroad up):-)

Johnny Blaze Aug 2008 6:11pm, 5 Aug 2008 559 posts	0 Johnny Blaze Certainly not - its six week relative, not six week absolute (for all the Excel fans out there). Welcome aboard!
