Shelley, I do tend to accuse you of involving me in all things workout-related, don't I? :laugh: But honestly, if you hadn't taken me under your wing, I'd still be mushy. :blushing: So thank you to the nth degree! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: PaulaThe things she tries to accuse me of. Something about steps. And walking around in the house after lights out! :laugh: :blushing:
Shelley
Okay, back to business.
20 second planks x 3 (not modified - on the ground now); done!0 -
Paula, outstanding!0

Shelly,
I place my watch on the floor directly under my nose. That way, if I collapse, I smash my face in. It gives me incentive to finish it.
Chuck
Must be a really nice watch. You could get a 10 x 10 piece of plywood. Bang about 50 nails or so through it and put it under your face for motivation. A little bed of nails. Now who could say you were not motivated? :laugh:
Steve it sure looks easy when others are doing it. :ohwell: It does get easier. Scouts honor. :flowerforyou:
Johnny great job man. I can see I will have to up my game. :grumble: You are smoking me. :smokin:
Paula while I love to hear such nice things about myself, it really was you. And I love teasing you as much as you do me. I invite lots of people to get off their mushy behinds. But they are to busy changing the channel. :laugh: You decided to do something about it. And for that I count you in my circle of friends. :smooched: Remember how little you knew about Exercise. But now I watch you give suggestions to others. I am such a proud mama. :blushing:
And Kathy I am hanging in here with you. Got 70 seconds done. Now we must catch up with my friend Johnny. I think I will attempt 2 minutes during a commercial watching The Walking Dead tonight. That should motivate me. If I collapse not only will I land face first into a mini bed of nails, but I will be devoured by flesh eating zombies. :noway:

Hey! Nice to see you here.
Steve, I'm with you on missing the 20 second level. I've been so proud of myself for doing them unmodified. That's going to change soon... :ohwell:
Chuck, Know your logging your earlier workouts. Hope you are recovering well.
Best wishes boys!
Paula0 -
Thanks, Paula. My eyes are doing great. Everything looks so bright and crisp. After Sunday I'll be able to exercise again.
Chuck0 -
It sounds like everyone is having fun.
Kathy, Shelley and Johnny -- you're all killin me!
Chuck -- Glad your surgery went well and that you are recovering so nicely!
Paula -- You're doing a lot! Congratulations!
Okay...I only did 45 seconds today. You are all shaming me. I will have to up it tomorrow. Egad!

Okay...now I have someone else to chase and keep me motivated. Good job!0 -
Kathy if you are going to chase Johnny you should bring your tennis racket. I hear he play's a pretty mean game.
Glad everyone is hanging in here. Chuck I think it was great doing them ahead. Did you get them both done?

Hi all! I've started these today, but started with Day 14 (timed myself last week and made it to 90 seconds, so that's how I decided to jump in). Well, maybe I started yesterday with Day 13 (rest day) hah! :happy:
This thing ending up at 5 minutes kind of scares me! :frown:0 -
Thanks mssheddy I have two partners to keep me on track now:laugh: :laugh: (I am in trouble:laugh: ) 0

Oh I am really in trouble.....:laugh: :bigsmile:0 -
Chuck I uploaded that picture of him just for you. Glad you noticed! I live it when he just hovers. :happy:
Steve, this going to be fun. :drinker:
Mssheddy, way to catch up! :bigsmile:
I could not remember where I was! So I did 90 seconds. I was shaking in my Nikes! :laugh: Has anyone ever walked on the roof of their house? I am sure most of you have. Now how many of you ever did step aerobics? Now combine the two into one crazy workout. :laugh: I bought some slanted risers for my Reebok stepper. There was a free DVD! :drinker: I suggested to my hubby that a panic button might need to be installed in my gym. Floor level! :laugh: :smokin:
Shelley0 -
Don't see Chris or Johnny.
Maybe they're off fighting zombies? Hope they're okay...
Chuck and Steve,
I didn't forget you! I'm just a night owl on the west coast, and often errands make me log even later. But I see you've both been very good today (or a few days ago, in Chuck's case). :drinker: I hope all your new partners will still share you with me.
I was still able to do 30 seconds unmodified today.
Paula
[ Shelley, my arms hurt.

Sorry...work has been killer busy and I was off cooking for the week! I take Mondays as a REST DAY...then usually workout on the real rest day! Sounds like everyone is getting it done and having fun. I'll be back tomorrow.
Have a blast guys!
