That's right. MVPs are always exempt from punishment, unless they want to do them and donate to a Burpee deprived teammate.0

Thanks, Cindy, now I feel I'm being uncharitable by not doing them! :laugh:0 -
Ok, today I did 58 mins walking, 10 mins kickboxing and 12 mins exercise video.
Total for the week so far: 30 strength training, 166 cardio (10 mins of which was combat)
Go team Carl!
ETA: Kept under calorie goal0 -
First, I need to apologize for not being active on the thread. I've had such a naughty weekend and then I worked a 12-hour shift yesterday. I will go back and catch up on the thread.

FINALLY saw the episode! Poor Michonne! She broke my heart.
Side note: I"ve been pulling 10 hour days in work... I am sure I have burned a lot of calories going up and down stairs and lifting things. Hopefully that counts. It's been a crazy week.0 -
I am so glad the challenge is finally up.
I agree with Kai about the spreadsheet -we have used them in another challenge and it really helps with accountability. We can still post to the group but the sheet may help if the donating of extra time is going to be a weekly thing.
Monday -
Cardio = 45 minutes
Strength = 0 minutes
Calories = under
Tuesday -
Cardio = 46 minutes
Strength = 30 minutes

Under calorie goal today. I also did 10 burpees - so team, they are up for grabs whoever needs them! Along with my extra cardio minutes and any extra strength training minutes I accrue.
I think a spreadsheet is a really good idea too - who will volunteer to set one up? *hopeful grin*
Arzu - I hope you are keeping track of climbing stairs and carrying heavy things! Sounds like strength training to me.
ETA: Go team Carl!0 -
Hey - so do the burpees count towards our totals? Would that be resistance or cardio?0

Because the burpees are the punishment exercise, you have to do 50 to get your strength training counted this week. I was MVP this week, so I don't have to do them, but I can donate any I do to the team to help out someone who is short. I guess if others want to do more than 50, they can donate them too!0 -
Ahhh I really am having a brutal week. I don't know...I almost feel burnt out from the amount of working out. Still keeping my calories in check though.0

Don't worry, team Carl will help you out! That's great you are sticking to you calories. How much strength and cardio do you think you can manage this week? Can you do the burpees? You can have my extra exercise minutes, and I'm sure the rest of the team will help out too, just let us know how many you need.0 -
Monday- Strength 20 minutes (1 of 3)
Tuesday- Cardio-30 minutes zumba, 10 minutes kickboxing
Wednesday- Cardio 80 Minutes
This is what I have so far since yesterday. Hopefully I will knock out some of those burpees today and get some strength in. I think I am going to use my weights while watching Pretty Little Liars. It should make the time go by fast! Oh and so far I am under everyday for my food. The hardest part for me is strength training until I get something to really use for it. Go team Carl!!0 -
Go, Katrina! You're week is looking good! I love your idea of using weights while watching Pretty Little Liars
Nerd fitness has some great body weight strength training routines. Fitness blender has some as well. I just found Has Fit this week, and they have nice body training workouts for all levels. If you like yoga or pilates, that counts too. Even just tossing some heavy things in a bag and pushing/puling them around for a while counts!
Good luck today with everything.
Go team Carl!0 -

I will probably be short this week but will fight hard the rest of the week to get as much as I can done. I will get the burpees done this week but I am not really happy about it.
I went to the grocery store and got some fresh stuff which I have been low on. I haven't done a good shop in long time. Plus, we have been eating out way too much because of it.
Can I get a quick recap of requirements for this week so I can get up to speed? I know about the burpees.
Also, does our week end on Sunday? or Saturday?
Friday, I am hoping to get 60 minutes of something
Saturday, 60 minutes
Sunday, 60 minutes0 -

I got another 10 burpees done today - so they are up for grabs, team.
Thanks for setting up the spreadsheet, Kasi :flowerforyou: I'm so impressed by your 5k time!
Kim - our goals for this week are 220 mins cardio (45 mins of which has to be combat?) and 90 mins strength training. We only went up by ten mins of cardio. We also had to do some extra walking and the punishment exercises were 50 burpees. Oh, and our week ends on Saturday. You have to get your stats send to Arzu before midnight Saturday.
Excellent work on the burpees, Katrina! You're week is going great!0 -
Thank you so much!! I will probably be short for the week since I was a lameass this week.
Friday, 60 minute kickboxing class
Saturday, 2 mile run and 60 minutes of yoga for strength
I tried to add to the spreadsheet but could not....just let me know if you need more help with it...0
