Start 30 day shred during lockdown? Coronavirus

Hi Guys! I am in full-on lockdown in Italy. No more running outside. Does anyone want to start the 30 day shred with me? I have started that thing like 1000 times and never finished it. Curious to see what the results would actually be. Also, a great way to keep focused on something other than the house in this period. Let me know!

    Hi, I need a challenge. I've been struggling since the gym closed. Never tried it but need something to keep me on track. Let me know when you are starting.

    I like that it is only 25 min and I have time and energy left for something else. I followed it with a step workout. My goal is to do some resistance training each day.

    How do I log this workout? Thinking about pulling out my old dvd and blowing the dust off of it!

    Count me in! I usually go running and sprinting but that's not an option anymore obviously and I need a way to stay active at home because who knows how many weeks we will be locked up.

    Made it through day 1! This is exactly I needed to get me back in motion.

    If you go on your stairs and do steps ups fast you will see it’s the same intensity as running except you go one up and then one down. I have a step so I use that and it’s just as high intensity as running or jump rope. I’m starting today as I’ve relaxed my exercise and diet since being at home and I’m starting to gain weight unfortunately. Should we weigh in here and log exercise every day?

    I love the stairs too! I live in a building with 5 flights...so I do that and you are right.....good intensity. As far as weigh in and logging exercise...uggg...I am not very good at MFP for messages, groups, etc....in fact, I cannot even believe I wrote something on this board.....I get confused easily! I admit it. Maybe we should start a group? thoughts? Would that be easier?

    Did a Day 2! I have been staying home now for over a week and I walk, early in day, in historic cemetery. Son stays home in bed. I can just look for you all here most easily. AND 30 DAYS will fly by. Do you know how long Italy will be home? Some say we (USA) just until April which is a week, three weeks, or who knows!

    Let’s use this thread and keep it simple. Let’s log current weight, goal weight, exercise done today. Try to log here everyday or every few days.

    So mine is;
    22.3.20 Current Weight - 134 pounds
    Goal Weight - 126 pounds
    Exercise today - 15 mins step up

    If you have App Store look for Seven - 7 Minute Workout by Perigee. Different workout types to work on different goals and to give you something new to work on.

    Please post any free resources so friends who are in lockdown have workouts to look forward to and to keep them positive.

    Ohhh...I LOVE cemeteries...here they are really majestic. All cemeteries are wonderful and peaceful places. No matter where I travel, I always see the cemetery of the place. Back to 30 day shred...yes...will go by fast for sure. I have no idea how long our lockdown will go. They said for sure past the original date of April 3, but we do not have an official end date. kx7003 is going to log current weight, goal weight, exercise done today. I like that....although, literally no one knows my weight.....but I guess putting it here will help keep me in line. And also keep me in line with my eating, cause doing a 30-minute video isn't gonna work if I am drinking wine and eating pasta all day.

    If you don’t want to post your weight you can just indicate if it’s gone up or down. I imagine exercise is more about endorphins for all of us now and setting a goal to work towards to get everyone through isolation and lockdown 🏋🏻‍♀️ and also maintains instead of gaining...
