Checking on here to encourage you all today, and YOU encouraged ME! Just looked at last week's results / this week's challenge:
OK, we may have slipped to 4th place, BUT we have FIVE Sharks in the Top Ten! WAY TO GO SHARKS!!!!! AND no drop-outs from our team so we are still a complete team not needing to have anyone else added to us to make up numbers :bigsmile: WE ROCK :bigsmile:
So be encouraged today by your own good results :happy:
And let's get back to that number one spot this week :laugh:
WEEK 6 CHALLENGE - IN SUMMARY:
WORKOUT: 5 days of at least 20 minutes. Calorie goal this week is 12 times you body weight at last week's weigh in. You need to calculate that and post it for us here so we can put it on the chart.
So for me that would be 174 x 12 = 2089 as my calorie burn goal.
Team goal here is only minutes - and we need to get in 1500 minutes, so that is 167 minutes each (I haven't counted Kristin in this total - will be glad simply for whatever she can contribute :flowerforyou: We seem to have lost Kai
)
REPS: 150 core, 150 upper body, 150 lower body, 150 cardio.
Team goal = 7500 which is 834 each - so aim much higher than your personal 600 :bigsmile:
FLEXIBILITY: 7 minutes on 5 days
AND record on the main challenge page in what tangible way you are nearer your flexibility goal.
HIIT - 6-10 minutes on FIVE days.
WE CAN DO THIS SHARKS!!!!
Enjoy your day off today and get back into it tomorrow :bigsmile:0 -
Yay Sharks!!!
Here is my calorie burning calculation for week six:
142 x 12 = 1704
Thanks to Mary and Ali for posting everyone's results on the chart, and a SPECIAL thanks to Sheri for creating these awesome challenges for us!!0 -

Happy Saturday, Shark buddies!
It occurred to me that even though being the "number one team" *looks* good, we are in this challenge for results (not that status.) And we are showing results - five of us in the top ten weight loss spots this week! The highest percentage of weight loss is what wins this challenge - not who was in the 'top' team from week to week. Now, of course I'm not knocking the fact that we can/should be in first place as a team...I'm just saying that we should keep-on-keeping-on when it comes to doing our individual parts of the challenge so that we show consistent results!
A friend of mine put this on Facebook, and I thought it could apply to our goals here:
"Your best teacher is your last mistake."
And, my calorie-burn goal for the week: 14260 -
I was talking to Chich and Chawng and they said the SHARKS are still #1 in their book....which is what counts, IMHO!!!
Look closely and you'll see they are have SHARKS' fins, too.
ETA: 2927 is my calorie requirement this week.... so up with the intensity. Prayer appreciated....0 -
Tell me what y'all think of this...
I know Sheri has said in the past that we can't count regular cleaning as a workout... Today, I scrubbed my kitchen and entry-way floors (mmmm...Pine-Sol!) I made a conscious decision to do this as my workout because it's not my typical cleaning. (You may think I'm terrible, but my regular floor cleaning is just sweeping...and then the occasional string mop/bucket.) This was scrub-brushing, and I spent about half the time squatting to add intensity (although I think the scrubbing itself was pretty intense!) Anyway, I have logged it as 75 minutes of calisthenics, and am going to claim my ten points for today unless somebody has an issue with that! Just thought I'd ask for input from you guys!
So, what do you think?0 -

Sounds OK to me! It was over and above your usual clean - and it is not as though you are logging workouts like this every day. AND you added in squats - so were clearly trying to make it harder (than it already is when you are scrub brushing!)0 -
And my encouragement today is really one for myself (have had a bad couple of days in this respect!) :

Oh, yeah, Mary...we *ARE* a great team! I see no reason why we shouldn't hold the number one spot AND show awesome results! They really should go hand-in-hand!

Here is what I posted on the main challenge page.
****Since starting the challenge, I notice my hips aren't hurting as much. I'm working on my hamstring flexibility, but in doing so, I've been loosening up my entire lower body, which I'm loving! My heels are getting closer to the ground during downward dog and I know I'll make that goal before the end of the challenge.****

Cals Burned: 475

Hi Kristie, for it to count as a workout, it has to be 30 mins ... do you want to take a some reps from your totals and count it as circuit training .. to make up the 30 mins .... let us know and we will log up your workoutmins and reps accordingly - stretching recorded.
