    I am so joining in on this but can not start it until Sunday... I may be a couple days behind so I hope that is okay! Was going to start it myself anyway in July then saw this thread.

    Had every intention of doing Day 1 today but then I got on my treadmill and ended up walking 6 miles and I am knackered!! Tomorrow is a crazy busy day as I am going to be visiting a friend from work who just had a baby and going to see a sneak peek showing of Eclipse (It doesn't come out here in England until the 9th of July but they have some special showings this weekend).

    If I wake up early enough I may try to fit it in before I go tomorrow but if not then I will officially start on Sunday! :flowerforyou:

    Well done guys!! The motivation is great!

    I've had a bit of a naughty meal day, but still under daily calories so far and it's my rest day. Back to it tomorrow!!

    That's an awsome work out! I wish my calorie burn was that high *L* are you using an HRM or are you going by what's on the screen?

    I did day 4 today for 21.37 mins burning 151.3 cals on medium and to get it up to at least 30 minutes (and feeling a bit guilty about yesterday *L*) I created a workout for 20.3 minutes and burned another 148.8 cals.

    Keep the updates coming!!

    I just use whats on the screen, however I am using the Sports active More and you really need to step up on that one. It takes in to account the intensity of using your arms too. It has a good step section which really burns the calories. I haven't got a HRM...I have enough gadgets :smile:

    Day 4 completed!
    116 calories burned!

    I found the guy personal trainer is kinda creepy but I'm getting along much better with the girl personal trainer.
    I really like this group and all the encouragement. Keep it the good work!

    Feeling the burn ladies. Tomorrow is day 5 (if you started on the first of course) Let's keep on going and break through the first week nice and strong!!! I know we can keep it up!
    Next rest day for me will be on Wednesday and I'm still so excited that you all have joined in, especially since I'm a noob here. It's been great motivation!!

    Take care!

    (pardon all the exclamation points, I get excited *L*)

    Oops rest day is supposed to be tomorrow, but I think I'll push it to Wednesday because I have a Zumba class that night.

    Hope you're all recovering from the Independence Day festivities!!! I missed being at my family's bbq a lot this year, but I'm sure it was a blast as always.

    Day 5 is complete and I am burning from the jump squats...the amount of squats and leg related exercise on this thing is evil *L*

    I did the challenge workout and it was 22.34 minutes burning 183.2 cals and to make up the time I did an additional 10.04 minutes burning 79.2 cals.
    I'm also hoping to get out for a walk later today, but I don't know about the calories.
    Good luck ladies, keep it up!!
