    I just did 2 of the videos for my warm up. I really like that this needs to be done for 5 days; this will be a great warm up and start to my day. The daily caloric intake is going to be tough due to Halloween, so I love this challenge! I needed it!!!

    Happy Halloween everyone. Be safe tonight.

    I think I was too late last night for adding my sunday minutes. Thanks for trying, @skinnyjeanzbound. I usually enter the next day, but it's now been 2 sundays that were missed. oops. I will leave a note to myself for next sunday to enter it sooner.

    I did 2 videos this morning. Quick and easy! I also got 40 squats in! Here is a video from fitness blender, that I am going to do to help get the squat challenge done. I did the first 4 exercises. Thought I'd share it...




    Happy Halloween!

    So decided I was done with being sick. Got in the stretching videos (did four as the kids super enjoyed them -two suggested ones and two random YouTube ones) a workout this morning while watching the Kyoto videos (very mediocre workout as I was not actually feeling as good as I thought). And then bunch of walking for trick or treating (more intense than my morning workout to lugg around two toddlers and massive candy bags ! )

    Zero squats (will get on those ASAP)
    And stayed within calorie goals!
    Starting off the week alright in my books. Hoping tomorrow I can really sweat it out.

    Did the 2 bonus videos this evening.

    Also, started challenge one by doing 2 of those videos!

    I am going to try and wake up early (I am NOT a morning person lol) and do a couple of those videos every morning for the rest of the week as well as get some squats in.

    And Day 1 of staying under calories complete.

    Hi guys!
    So happy with this week's challenges--especially the staying under calories. I definitely need this given all the candy. Most if it is going to school with me tomorrow as a treat for my students, but we kept a little bit that I will have to ration so as to fit within my calorie allowance for the rest of the week. Honestly, I haven't even been logging for the past week or so, so this is the kick in the pants I need.

    I also did 2 of the videos tonight and 30 squats, so off to a good start there.

    CALLING ALL RACERS! DON'T FORGET TO USE THE OPTIONAL WEIGH-IN SHEET IF YOU'D LIKE!

    You can find it under the "Weight Track" Tab on the regular spreadsheet.
    Don't worry if you didn't start during Week One, it will still work for you!

    Had my alarm set for 5am to get in my workout - unfortunately I hit the snooze, just couldn't get up this morning. Have another evening out tonight. This has been a very busy couple of weeks for us - which is not the norm, and I am feeling it!

    I did manage 2 videos and another 40 squats this morning.

    Oh shoot! I just re-read the squat challenge. They have to be sumo squats??!!

    Well @enuf200, just think of how warmed up your muscles will be for the sumo squats!

    @Cheriels82, hope you feel completely better soon!

    @summ72, you and me both seem to have a problem with Mondays! I, too, am glad yesterday's over!

    Hello, team. We've got a good challenge ahead of us! The logging AND the stretching videos for five days! Start today if you haven't already!

    Hey guys! Omg I feel so busy all the time! Yesterday I got...idk...11 minutes of exercise? After play practice I came home, ate and got ready to hand out candy. As you saw on my status we only had a handful of trick-or-treaters. It really turned out to be about 12 but not the hundreds we expected. I am really surprised that even so, I came in under calories yesterday! I find that hard to believe but I'm 99.999% sure I counted everything I ate. Just in case, I'm going to try for 6 days of staying under calories to count. I did two of the radio videos yesterday morning. I was going to do two more today but then found out we caught a mouse when I woke up and the 10 minutes I was going to devote to that became devoted to getting rid of the mouse. I'll do them. I don't know if I'll get the squats done - I did a whole bunch on Sunday and I'm really sore. Too bad those don't count! I'll try, though...I am really going to try. I ran two miles today (a very slow build up to the half marathon I just signed up for) so now it's time to stretch. I'm going to do the Kyoto videos.

    5400 divided by 20 players (not sure if @francaisluvr is still with us?) is 270 minutes minimum per team member this week.

    Okay I just "watched" the first Kyoto video and did some stretching and abs and yoga poses. I put the 15 minutes in Monday to make it look like I did something yesterday! I put watched in quotes, because it is hard to "watch" while stretching!

    Hey guys! Great day today. My kiddos at school loved the candy. I ended up using it to randomly group them for an activity, so it served a dual purpose. LOL

    I am doing good on calories today. Did not eat one bite of the candy while at school, and only one mini bag of swedish fish after school. I will also be able to fit in a reese's pumpkin b/c I spent an hour and a half raking and mowing the lawn. :smile:

    I plan to do 2 more videos tonight and some more squats.

    That's only 38.5 minutes a day. I'm willing to commit to 75+ minutes a day, what about everyone else?

    I'm going to input exercise minutes for yesterday, 128. I wasn't able to access the spreadsheet last night. I was under calories last night and will also be under tonight too. I completed Kyoto videos and did two stretching videos this afternoon. So 4 more days of stretches! :)

    Hey team! Got day 2 done for both the Rajio Taiso videos and staying under my calories! Also did 50 sumo squats today. I really love those little Rajio Taiso videos! I did it this morning and it really helped to wake me up! Also, I want to start using those videos as a warm up before I start exercising from now on.

    That is one thing I truly love about this challenge... learning new forms of exercise :smile:

    I really gotta catch up if I want to make my 300 minutes this week. I am going to do my best and try to wake up earlier tomorrow and get an exercise in before work. It's a true struggle to get out from underneath them sheets!! haha

    Have a good "hump day" tomorrow team! :smile:

    Does it say somewhere we have to do the radio videos AND stretching each day for 5 days?
  • enuf2
    enuf2 Posts: 272 Member
    So yesterday I only got in the 2 radio videos, I did do 40 SUMO squats and a short walk.
    Having an active social life is killing me! LOL! I have not done well on the logging challenge. Was over on monday :( and didn't log yesterday. We were at a banquet last night so I am unsure how to log the dinner. We have 2 more events to attend this weekend and then things will go back to normal.
    I won't be home till around 8 tonight, but I will workout! Should be able to get a walk in today at work and will continue with the challenges. That's my plan, anyway!

    @BJerzy, the way I understand it, you only have to do two radio videos (any two, your choice) for five out of seven days this week. Stretching to the Kyoto videos is a one time thing if you want those bonus minutes.
