    Here is this week's punishment exercises. Team Michonne would like us to do this 4 minute "Bring Sally Up" Squat Challenge, 5 times this week.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CswK7e_Bep8
    If you can't access the video, it is 4 minutes of regular squats, but holding in the squat position for a full 3 seconds before rising and squatting again.

    ...Yes yes yes! I just started the 30 Day Squat Challenge so this is perfect! I want bunz of steel before my husband gets back home! :devil:

    I'm still doing stage 1 of New Rules of Lifting for Women, and I just moved from doing two sets of each move to three sets. So that should take care of the extra 10 minutes of arm strength training. I might throw in some bow and arrows just to keep my zombie shooting arm in shape.

    Thank goodness cardio didn't go up anymore. I'm barely keeping up as it is!

    And one set of Sallies down. Four more to go! Yeah, Team Beth!!! We got this!!!

    Awesome! My roommate and I used to call JM the evil b*tch monster of death. But in a good way of course. :smile: Enjoy! And let us know how you like it!

    I volunteer to do more squats if anyone needs it this week! Just let me know. :flowerforyou:

    I think I might check out Ripped in 30 on Wednesday. I still haven't gotten through one day of 30 Day Shred, so it should be interesting! :laugh:

    And if anyone is trying to figure out how to calculate the calories burned for the squats, this is the formula I used:

    Congratulations, kmoiregreen!! And great week to get immunity. Team Michonne is not messing around. My legs are burning at the thought of four minutes of squats. :noway:

    It should be fun. Challenges should inspire. And be fun.

    If anyone is looking for a great abs, cardio, strength DVD at a great price, try Billy Blanks TAEBO Express. Got mine at Wal-Mart. $10.00. There are eight 10 - minute workouts. So you can do the ones you want. The ab one is great. There are burpees! :) And you can use walking weights to add intensity. I like the ones by Golds Gym. Also available at Wal-Mart. I do 3 of them usually. 2 if time is limited.

    I have some of his celebrity ones, not a winner with me. I love him though. He is inspirational. :) Sorry your teacher will be gone for a while. He has so many different ones. And reasonably priced. You are sure to find one you love.

    I found a app I thought I would share with you guys. Its called Daily Arm Workout Free. Its nothing but arm exercises and they have it broke up in 5,8 and 10 mins programs. Its a good way to get those extra 10 mins of arms out of the way.

    Does the app incorporate weights? I'd love to find some new techniques besides bicep curls!

    I think that was when people actually went and did stuff outside! :laugh:

    Does anyone have tips re: motivation?

    I had a really good Week 1, Week 2 was seriously sh**ty, and now Week 3 is barely there. I'm trying to work out what I'm doing wrong (I know that the diet isn't ideal, that I'm not exercising enough) to be so undermotivated?

    What are some good ways to 're-motivate'?
