I think we're all here for accountability and support, so...let's get a challenge going! Some kind of goal to shoot for. What about 15 lbs. gone by the end of July? Or maybe a non-weight goal, like an hour workout three times a week? What kind of challenge are we up for? We have a dress to get into!

    I think non-weight is the way to go, since some folks aren't going to be able to drop huge numbers, if they're closer to goal.

    Maybe X number of cardio workouts and X number of strength ones per week? I know I'm really bad about doing my cardio, but rarely miss lifting - or yoga.

    Okay. For the month of June, we'll say 2 cardio workouts and 2 strength workouts a week. Check in on Sunday and share what kind of workouts you did?

    I think that's reasonable. Though it may only be you and I participating! :)

    A few days late
    I walked 1+ mile everyday and ran 4x a week about a mile
    I only did one strength session with the aerial yoga focused on moves that I pull up my bodyweight. on Friday. my arms and shoulders are still sore

    Life got super obnoxious and I kind of forgot about checking back on this. Whoops.

    1-6th: Lots of hospital hall walking and necessary yard work. Nothing concrete.

    8-14th: One cardio day and one lifting day in the gym, plus more yard stuff.

    Things are calm now, so the rest of the month should be way more awesome. Weeee!

    15-21st: Three days of Stronglifts 5x5, and two days of Arc Trainer (one 30 minutes, one 60 minutes).

    22-29th: Two days of StrongLifts, one day of jogging on the treadmill. I hate running.

    30th: I plan to hit the gym tonight for a short lifting session and light cardio. I'm pseudo-rehabbing an injury. ("Normal" bruising from increasing my lifts, but trying not to make it worse)
