    Well done everyone - roll on week 3, and don't forget to keep track of your points over the weekend as you will have to report them on Monday. :drinker:

    WONDERFUL WEEK THIS WEEK SHARKS!

    So proud to be part of this team! Let's keep going and rock Week 3!

    It seems we had two team members drop out this week: jenquirk and StacyJCrain :sad: :sad: :sad: Hope you guys come back from time to time to cheer us on!!!!

    So here is the summary of Week 3's challenge:

    #1 WORKOUT:

    Minimum of 20 minutes workout 5 times a week,

    BUT minimum total minutes per week: 220 - so you need to do more than 20 minutes some days as over 5 days that comes to 44 minutes a day! (Remember to score points in the points challenge you need to so at least 30 minutes of exercise, so aim for at least that on 5 days!)

    Team goal: 2860 minutes - which would mean everyone aiming for 260 minutes (or averaging 52 minutes on 5 days!)

    Calories to burn: 1400 minimum each
    Team goal: 17500 (which comes to 1590 each)

    Our two pregnant ladies are counting in the workouts!!!

    #2 REPS:

    100 cardio, 100 core, 100 Upper Body, 100 Lower Body, and then another 100 of any. Minimum 500 in the week.

    Team goal: 6500 - so 650 each.

    Kai85 is opting out of reps, and Kristin - YOU can do ANY type of rep - don't have to do 100 of each kind - anything you can give us counts towards team goals and you can modify as much as you wish! Sheri says so!!!! :happy:

    #3 FLEXIBILITY:

    2-7 minutes 3 times this week. Can go for more! This has to be intentional time set apart.

    #4 Post a realistic goal for end of challenge. Can be weight related but needn't be! This needs to be posted on the WEEK 3 CHALLENGE THREAD.

    #5 Bonus points: Post a low sodium recipe (less than 350mg) on the recipe page. This earns you 7 points, and you get 3 extra for adding a photo or picture! Max. 10 points for the week. (But post more than 1 recipe if you want!)

    POINTS CHALLENGE:

    Remember that this continues - still Monday to Sunday. We will be asking you to post your week's results on Monday, so keep track over this weekend!

    LET'S ROCK WEEK 3 SHARKS! :flowerforyou: :heart:

    Hey Sharks! I'm SO sorry that I didn't post my workouts for Friday and Saturday in time. I sprained my foot really bad yesterday after the weigh in and had to go to the ER. I have to ice, elevate, stay off it for a few days and wear a special shoe and use crutches. :angry: I sprained it doing a little origami of the foot - I fell over while taking off my jeans in my closet with crap all over the floor, and my foot folded under me as I twisted to avoid doing a face plant into the door frame. (It's a super embarrassing story, so I'm thinking about telling people at work that I hurt my foot doing something a little less spastic.)

    I was sure that I would have to drop out of the challenge, but I checked with Sheri and she told me about CHAIR AEROBICS that she did while nursing an injury, so I'm gonna stay in it! I hope that I will soon be able to get back to my regular cardio soon, like the butt-numbing stationary bike that everyone jokes about :laugh: .

    Just in case I didn't miss the deadline, here is what I did on Friday and Saturday:

    Friday results:
    WATER 5 points

    Saturday and week's results:
    WATER 5 points
    Workout 60 minutes Chair aerobics with hand weights + 10 points
    400 calories
    reps: 150 (abdominal crunches, oblique crunches, pilates hundreds
    flexibility: 10 minutes

    GOOD HABIT for week - YES = 25 points
    BAD HABIT for week - NO = -10

    I'll be sure to post on time in the future :blushing:

    Ouch! Hope that heals really quickly! But DELIGHTED that Sheri came up with a way for you to stay in the challenge!

    And if anything like this happens - to ANY of you - in future, just let us know! Sheri is a very understanding person (despite her pushing us to our limits!) and there are times when deadlines can be extended and grace given, as long as you communicate with us - by PM is best in those situations though so we see it. (We don't always check the team page after posting for the week is completed.)

    ONE IMPORTANT CHANGE TO THE SUMMARY I POSTED ABOVE:

    Kelly (a Wolverine) has just posted the following on the challenge thread:

    "I PMd Sheri earlier to clarify the Flexibility Part of this weeks challenge - I've had word back and it is 2 blocks of 7 mins (14mins) on 3 of the days... thought I'd put it in here, just in case anyone else had read it the same as I did at first, which was between 2-7 mins."

    I misread it as she did, so TAKE NOTE: we need to do 2 blocks of 7 minutes (so 14 minutes) on 3 of the days, not 2-7 minutes 3 times in the week, which was what I posted above!

    Glad I wasn't the only one to misread this :blushing: :blushing:

    HAVE A FABULOUS SHARKS! Keep pushing yourself - YOU CAN DO THIS!! :flowerforyou:
