in Motivation and Support
This is a motivational and support group so let's motivate and support each other through this challenge. It is not difficult and is geared for those who are not extremely active but want to start somewhere. I just completed the whole thing and at 57 years old, I lost 5 pounds of weight and several inches doing this challenge. I am re-starting it tomorrow 6/13/13 and thought if others want to join, I would start this thread. Remember, I am not a doctor, personal trainer, or physical therapist. I am just someone who wants to continue the benefits of this activity and encourage others to give it a go. Anyone game?? :tongue:

Here is the challenge:
Day 1 - 30
Day 2 - 35
Day 3 - 40
Day 4 - 45
Day 5 - Rest
Day 6 - 55
Day 7 - 60
Day 8 - 65
Day 9 - 70
Day 10 - Rest
Day 11 - 85
Day 12 - 90
Day 13 - 95
Day 14 - 100
Day 15 - Rest
Day 16 - 75
Day 17 - 85
Day 18 - 95
Day 19 - 105
Day 20 - Rest
Day 21 - 125
Day 22 - 130
Day 23 - 135
Day 24 - 140
Day 25 - Rest
Day 26 - 155

    I'm in! Thanks for the challenge.
    Day 1 done. I did 30 modified push ups, too. Thinking of doing those although not sure how to increase those. Guess I'll just feel my way through those.
