Are you ready to MOVE-IT??!! 2uge4p4.gif[/b]

Summer is right around the corner and we want to be ready to shed these coats and sweaters! This is the perfect time to re-commit or jump start your routine!

What are your fitness goals? Are you still getting in those workouts? Or are you just starting a workout program? Do you need a little more motivation? If so please join us.

We are a group who are committed to doing 180 to 360+ minutes of exercise each week (minimum 180). We count minutes for all types of intentional exercise: aerobics, walking, weight training, strength work, stretching or heavy gardening. You be the judge of whether it's exercise or not.

We're here to support, encourage, and set challenges for ourselves. It's all about intention. If we don't make the 180 to 360+ minutes one week, there's next week to go for it.

The weeks starts every Monday in the month and ends the following Sunday at midnight. Then we start all over again the following Monday for week 2, 3, and 4. (and some months week 5)

Newcomers are always welcome!

If at first you don't succeed, you keep trying...just keep coming back to report progress or non-progress...it doesn't matter...it keeps us accountable and that's how we commit to healthy lifestyles. It is a chance to meet new friends and encourage one another along the way.

You can use the form below OR make up your own. So who's in for Week #1,2,3, or 4 sometimes 5??

    I think I better make my goal 180 minutes a week to start with, as I've been lucky to do 30 mins a week lately.

    Welcome Joann!! This is not a formal group so you have already joined. Welcome!! Just keep checking back when you want to update! Some check in daily, some check in less. I recommend daily to stay mindful but purely your choice and what your schedule allows.
