February Fitness Challenges

MiamiSeoul

February 2017

Over the next few months I'm going to seem like a robot. We will focus on those problem areas: abs, thighs & arms. It's all about, PROJECT SUMMER - LET'S GET NAKED! Okay, maybe not naked, but we want to show skin this summer - lots & lots & lots of firm, tight, sexy skin!!! Please join me for our February 2017 challenges.














Everyone is welcome. We are judgement-free. Do one or all; tailor the challenges to suit your needs. Keep in mind, it's time to crank it up - summer bodies are made in the winter! There is no formal group to "join". Simply touch/highlight the little star at the top right of the page. Come back & check-in daily. Share your struggles & successes. Don't forget to weigh, measure & take lots of "before" pictures to help you track your progress. IT'S ABOUT PROGRESS, NOT PERFECTION!

Thanks for joining me on this journey to being a better, healthier & happier person. As always . . . GO GET YOUR GOALS!




I'm including this to help make your February a little sweeter.

Not sure anyone would want to see this. but then again... who cares about my battle scares

I'll go over the challenges and see which I can do. I might have to modify some of them to fit my limitations.

Thank you @MiamiSeoul .

I like the look of the ab challenges

I knew that would get your attention. It's been a long road, but we keep at it and we keep getting better & better!

Thanks for this. I'm starting up and this is a great way to go!

This month I'm in for the Ab challenge but I'm going to have to modify bicycles, though,

ladyreva78

Okay. Had time to go over the exercises.

I'm in for the ab challenge (the second one posted it is), but I'll need to replace the regular crunches (not good for my back). I need to keep my midsection static (no crunch/no extension movements). Anyone have any good ideas?

Or I might just add those jumping jacks from the one before that.

I'll try to do the 'love yourself' one as well, but no guarantee... Might be easier than the cleaning on though

I'm in for the Fab Abs and Love Handles challenge. Oh it's so good to be back. Thanks @MiamiSeoul for motivating us with your challenges.

I actually hate jumping jacks. Sadly I'm rather well endowed and no matter the sports bra (or the amount of sports bras ), the girls just jump around too much for my tastes. I should probably have specified that.

But I'll have a look through the variations you posted. Some are definitely out, just looking at them my back hurts. But there's one or two I'll have to print and pin to the closet! Especially the planks... I actually like planks.

first attempt at a challenge when others know im doing it. When i do them and im not accountable i usuallly get bored by day 5/6 lets hope i stick to these

We must be heart sisters. As part of my Christmas gifts, hubby bought sports bras! I'm really loving my Wacoal, Berlin & Moving Comfort bras! A few years ago, I found a zip front, racer back Champion super reasonably priced! I wish I would have bought them all! For regular, daily wear, I usually wear Wacoal & am so happy they make a sports line.

ladyreva78

@MiamiSeoul I'll have to look into those! Thanks

I want in

I'm in for this one, looks great! I am going to incorporate the Abs challenge with the lose your love handles into my regular workout routine. Already can't wait to see the results.

donns

I am in for the abs. I do planks with my personal trainer, but we haven't gone past 30 seconds. I'm a bit skeptical about getting to 2 minutes in 4 weeks, but it will be interesting to try. Whatever happens I will have a stronger core.

You'd be surprised what you can manage if you try. Worst case, you break it up into sets.

When I started planking, I thought more than 15 seconds was out of my reach. I started setting myself a timer with 5 seconds more than my personal best. I kept on trying till I could hold that. Then I set 5 seconds more. Knowing that there's a timer with a little music on the end and it's probably going to go off in just another second, helped me suck it up and keep on pushing myself. Some days I failed and face planted before the timer, others I managed to hold out just a few breaths longer.

My current personal best is at around 2 minutes now using more dynamic planks.

@letme1 here it is!!

scdavies1

I'd like to join! I like the love handles challenge, so will go for that one in addition to my regular work outs. This is my first challenge, so we'll see how it goes! Thanks for the motivation.

Fallfrenzy

Count me in for this! This looks to be a great challenge to include with other things that I do!

I cannot wait for February 1st!

Thanks @MiamiSeoul - I needed that this morning!!

I'm in for the cleaning challenge, and I might try to take the Fabulous February DailyHiit.com workout and modify it to be a M-F challenge. (I really dislike structured workouts on the weekend for some reason).

Skipper111

February is going to be amazing!!!

Ok I am going to go with, Rake Challenge, Fab Ab and Lose the Love handles...

This months going to be a tough one
