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

Summer is here! Are you ready to shed those pounds and clothes!! 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??

    Count me in, could definitely use this

    Yes! I'm in! Last time I was on MFP from Jan-Apr it was the exercise part I was less able to force myself into. This time I'm going to try and do a minimum 30 mins/day average. I'd like to work up to 60 mins/day, with maybe 1 day off per week. Right now I think it'll be more like 60 mins/day with a couple days off.

    I made my 325 minute challenge every week in June, so I'm going to up my goal - because what's a challenge if it doesn't push you to do MORE? I'm in for 350 minutes each week of July.

    I'm in! Need to recoup :wink: and get back with the program. Just got a fitbit flex to help motivate me. Shooting for 180 for the first week.

    I'm in again - thanks @IsMollyReallyHungry for keeping this thread going. None of my other challenges track time only so this is a great way for me to balance monthly/weekly/daily distance and total daily time
