Aww DEVLe it's not fair that you're not 100% right now - but please do everything the doctors tell you and REST if you need to. This challenge is not worth more than your ultimate health. Keep checking in with us though - we're all friends and here to support you.
And to my other Dolphin friends... Let's Rock this week! Hopefully the challenge will be up soon and we can all plan our week around the requirements - this week has shown that as a TEAM we can achieve anything.0 -
Congrads VERDA for taking the top spot last week!
Week 2 (what's up so far)
Workouts: 30/45/60/90
Individual mini calorie burn 1,300
Team calorie burn 20,800 or approx 1,600 per active person (think there are 13 who are).
Reps mix of core and cardio 400 min
Team toal 7,000 or approx 538 each
Flexibility
10 min set aside to work on this only 4 days a week. This doesn't count toward anything else in in challenge, just toward your flexibility goal.
I'm sure you guys will kill it this week.0 -
@devle so sorry to hear of your troubles, chin up! Hope the pain eases up soon, make sure you don't push yourself too hard0
-
60 minutes running and 20 minutes stretching today, even though I know it doesn't count. :bigsmile:0

It's Sunday here (almost finished too!) so I'll start us off with a BANG.
Sundays are usually my lazy days, but I really want to push myself to get a head start each week, so that is changing!!
#1 - Workout
90 mins on treadmill for 700 calories burned. Did a mixture of walking, running and jogging.
#2 - Reps
I forgot that this week was cardio and core only, so did about 200 on various UB machines first, then:
25 crunches
25 single leg lifts (on each leg - not sure if it counts as 25 or 50 seeing as it was only one side at a time??)
25 heel taps (on each side, start like a crunch, lift upper body, stretch arms out and reach around to tap one heel, then reach to the other side and tap the other) (is this 25 or 50?)
So 75, or 125, whichever way it is counted. Can someone clarify for me (and others who may also be unsure)?
#3 - Flexibility
10 mins of stretching after that BIG walk - gosh my tooshie and hips were tight after that!
I'll have to get my head around these points, but I guess I don't need them today as they don't start until tomorrow. Phew!0 -
great going there kr... certainly a good start to the week!
Not 100% sure about the leg lifts... have to wait for Sheri to answer that one!0 -
Thank DEVLe! I am hoping for another great week beings I NEVER should have packed this much on since July anyways!Congrads VERDA for taking the top spot last week!

Popping in to say
ALL WOLVERINES ROCK!!!!!!!0 -
You guys are rocking the start to this week. Keep it up. Off to toss some smack at the wolverines. But was nice of Kelly to give us ladies some eye candy
Remember we did not gain bad habits in one night. So we can't expect to lose them in one night either, One step one day at a time
We will reach our goal.
Here is a breakdown on the Points - for easy reference as well as the requirements to achieve those points...
Hope I have it all.
Points:
(1) Water: (5 points per day for 8 oz and above) (35 possible per week)
(2) Sodium: (5 points per day for under 2500 mg) (35 possible per week)
(3) Workouts: (5 points for every 30 min workout) (10 points max per day) (60 possible per week) (over 6 days only)
(4) Bad Habit: (25 points IF you complete your goals for week)October 13th (Sunday)
5) New Hobby: (25 points IF you complete all goals)
(6) Positive Comment on Group page: (1 per day) (7 points per week)
(7) Competitive/smack talk on other teams page (1 per week) (5 points)
Total possible points for entire week: 192
* If you do not complete the entire commitment you made for 4 and 5, you do not get the 25 points, instead you must deduct 10 points for both segments you did not complete for the week.
The points challenge starts today - October 14th and runs Monday to Sunday, unlike the main challenge which runs Sunday to Friday........
We must report the points weekly, each Monday for the previous week, so our first reporting of our full weeks points is Monday, October 21st....0 -
For some reason I can't edit my previous post, but I understand that Sunday's points don't count.
I hope everyone is having a fun, productive and healthy Monday!0 -

Water points are for 8/ 8oz glasses to equal 64 oz PER DAY correct?0 -
Monday:
run: 69 minutes, 789 calories
reps: 100 jumping jacks, 60 sit ups
I did stretching a little differently today, I did ten sessions of one minute. So I either did thirty seconds and then switched sides, or one whole minute on a stretch. It was nice. I should not have neglected to stretch post run though. I really have to work on that.
I got my water in, 60 minute work out, I did not go on Reddit this morning (it always makes me late starting my day) and I'm crawling into bed ready to tackle way more than one chapter of reading.
I hope everyone else had a good day.0 -
Chomp, chomp, chomp...watch out for SHARKS! 0

@Ashley - You can put your points down daily if it helps you track (except for the #4 & #5 since they are a whole week not a daily thing) - at the moment I don't have them being tracked on the chart until the end - so they won't be put up until Monday (next weeks chart) when everyone is supposed to post the whole week. I'm hoping it will work ok - I haven't done it this way before - but Its a full week being based in the points so I'm trying it out...
And Thanks So Much D and hypallage for your help!! This has been an insane 2 weeks for me with all these practices and how late I'm getting home at night so I'm SO appreciative for you help right now!! Our thing is Saturday and I do go out of town the following weekend cuz I NEED A BREAK!! But I believe I will have computer access and not a crazy schedule so I can be more "here"!! I Hate Not Being here!! You guys Keep Me Motivated!!
And lastly....I HOPE You'all Aren't Putting Up with all this Smack Talk without giving it back!! Time to show them WE Are The BEST Team!!! HA!! But yes D I agree....Appreciate the eye candy!! The Bear Was A Little Scary Though!! :noway:0 -
Smack-Schmack! They are only words of encouragement to us DOLPHINS right??? Dolphins did you kick your OWN @SS today? Cuz if you didn't then our smack talking rivals are going to do it for us! We can't let that happen to us!! Be strong, Be tough!!
Hey fellow MALE teammates how was your workout? Can't be quiet now, Let us know!

Well gang I hope you are staying on your toes. I tried to put in as much as a real workout today as possible. I got 30 min done with the help of a pain pill but OUCH:noway: . Think I'm going to have to listen to the doctor. Or get stronger pain meds :sad:
Core work is totally out for me. The water no problem in the bag and the cardio reps well lots of boxing jabs for me this week. I will do my best to help out each week as much as I can.
Funny 580 days ago if this had happened I'd say goodie a reason to do nothing. Now I'm like
:explode: :grumble: :noway: and hoping mad :devil: I can't fully do this.
I will post my states tomorrow other pain pill kicking in. Looking thru the wolverine post I think the dolphins fully showed up on the smack talk there. So the rest of you who haven't yet go get the others. Sharks are cocky and need taken down. Wish I knew how to post pictures.0 -
Just thought I would drop in to say hi to all my pals! Dolphins can get the job done BUT this time it's GECKOS TURN! Gooooo Geckos!0

Thank Sheri but in honesty the chart is totally hypallage. With the stuff I'm on I don't want to mess it up. Thank you and her for all your hard work.
And yes leave it to Gillian to come up with that. She was the one who mixed the photo last time when the wolphine team was combined. :-) now THAT was scary :laugh:0 -

Reps: 0

Some helpful tips when dealing with water:
Make sure you stay hydrated during your workouts, if you are dehydrated while working out, it can have a negative impact on your body
Also, drinking cold water burns more calories than drinking warmer water, this is due to your body working harder to process the cold water therefore burning more calories
So moral of the story: drink lots of cold water during your workout to stay hydrated and to burn more calories 0
