    Hi all! My computer is not functional well, at all (it's really old). I have had nearly no access to any web sites. It might even shut me out again before I finish typing, :grumble: Just wanted to let you know I am keeping track of my exercise and adding it on here once we get a new computer!

    Keep up the good work!! :happy:

    Sorry about your computer problems. I know too well what that is like. Hang in there!

    Great work everyone!! :drinker:

    My computer is working intermittently. I think I've read some people can access the forums via their phone app?? I can't access the forums from my phone or Kindle Fire. I only see my personal news feed and diary unless I am on my computer. Am I missing something?

    Wed: 40 push ups
    Thurs: 40 push ups
    Fri: 40 push ups, 3 planks, 40 crunches

    Tacked on 30 crunches to my exercise routine today. -->770 to go

    continue to do 30 crunches as part of my floor routine all the way through July 6, which equates to 180 crunches done-->620 to go. I might take Sunday off.

    I did them anyway--so ttl as of 7July = 210 crunches done--> 590 to go.


    Heat wave and no a/c until scheduled repair, so I skipped a couple of days. I will be upping my daily target to make the monthly.
    This pass week I did 140 as of 13July = 140 crunches--> 450 to go.

    I'm new to the group and had the challenge posed to me but I train with the TRX suspension system. Every workout I do pushups (suspended in the air), and plank/crunch combos. How well do these exercises translate to the challenge? Does anyone else use the TRX system or is familiar with it?

    Thanks for the invite to the group. I look forward to the interaction.
