    I am in. Is there anything special a participant needs to do... or do we just log in our exercise. My goal is 180 minutes per week. Does cleaning count for this challenge? It is considered cardio under exercise(ex vacumming, scrubbing the floors etc)?

    Are you ready to MOVE-IT??!! 2uge4p4.gif

    Fall is here and we want to be ready to shed those pounds! This is the perfect time to re-commit or jump start your routine!

    What are your fitness goals? Are you still getting in those workouts? Or are you just starting a workout program? Do you need a little more motivation? If so please join us.

    We are a group who are committed to doing 180 to 360+ minutes of exercise each week (minimum 180). We count minutes for all types of intentional exercise: aerobics, walking, weight training, strength work, stretching or heavy gardening. You be the judge of whether it's exercise or not.

    We're here to support, encourage, and set challenges for ourselves. It's all about intention. If we don't make the 180 to 360+ minutes one week, there's next week to go for it.

    The weeks starts every Monday in the month and ends the following Sunday at midnight. Then we start all over again the following Monday for week 2, 3, and 4. (and some months week 5)

    Newcomers are always welcome!

    If at first you don't succeed, you keep trying...just keep coming back to report progress or non-progress...it doesn't matter...it keeps us accountable and that's how we commit to healthy lifestyles. It is a chance to meet new friends and encourage one another along the way.

    You can use the form below OR make up your own. So who's in for Week #1,2,3, or 4 sometimes 5??

    Can this be done in tandem with the October MYA$$ Challenge? Or do they need to be separate activities. I would like to be in on this but don't want to at the expense of MYA.

    Not sure what your question is, but this is a seperate challenge so you would just be in 2 challenges. They are ran seperately for sure. Thanks for your interest and welcome if you care to join us this month!
