welcome to the 270 min. weekly challenge! if you're new to the challenge, here's the drill... set your own goal for the week. it can be more, but not less than 270 minutes of any combination of cardio and strength. the challenge is to meet the goal you set and make your minutes really count (no phoning it in!)... check in every day to post how many minutes you worked out and what you did. this is the update form-


weekly goal: ___ minutes

mon: min. (what you did)
tues: min. (what you did)
wed: min. (what you did)
thur: min. (what you did)
fri: min. (what you did)
sat: min. (what you did)
sun: min. (what you did)

    I'd like to join. I tried the 360 challenge a couple of times, but never could hit 360. 270 is much more doable, so that's my goal.
