    The miles will be my hardest. I have 2 days to get them in - 17 miles. Usually on the weekends, I can do long stationary bike miles so I'll have to pull out the ankle weights again! Awkward, but they do serve as extra weight resistance.

    I hope you are all getting your miles done!

    Just today and tomorrow to get it done and get them in!



    Keep in mind, we just want you to do as many as you can, push yourself!

    Remember to keep stretching and warming up.

    If you are feeling stiff or sore, please do a 5 minute warm up walk!

    Wow, great job this week. I've been so lazy/emotional this week that I haven't really put in a good effort. I just did a 10 mile bike ride and I'm hoping to put in a couple more 10 mile rides today.

    Got as many miles in as I could. Sorry its not more, but that's the best I could manage with two days being completely taken away with flying and then at the hospital for 8+ hours with my mom. This upcoming week should be good tho. With my mom at her home all week, can't really leave, but they have all kinds of exercise equipment upstairs for me to work on. :smile:

    Guys, I don't know if I'll be able to do any of the Yoga Plank Poses. I weigh 249lbs and can't balance myself on my toes. Since I do my pushups on my knees, I guess my toes aren't strong enough. I'm going to focus on doing these exercises throughout the day. Since I don't do yoga, this seems very boring and time consuming (30 second holds) without getting much of a calorie burn. I think it's just something that I don't understand. I'm a total type A person and this is too slow for me. This, by far, will be the hardest challenge for me to date. I'll do my best.

    Okie,

    see: http://yoga.about.com/od/beginningyoga/a/benefits.htm
    for the benefits of yoga .Yes, it is a small burn, but it does a lot for the body.
    Regarding the planks, it does say to modify if necessary. Therefore, this one (which it sounds like you're describing): http://www.arthritistoday.org/Fitness/Exercise-Videos-and-Photos/Abs-exercises/asset-upload-file739-2932.jpg would have sufficed I'd have thought, but ask AthenaWho. Perhaps over the week you could work towards straightening your legs slightly/lifting your knees off the floor slightly, if there was any possibility. Don't stress.

    Thanks babydull! I guess I don't know how to modify the plank unless I'm just laying in the floor :-)). I'll check out the link you provided. I was trying to do it like the lady did it in the youtube video.

    This is my busy time of the month. I'm doing inventory & my son's football games have started. I probably won't do these poses again until the weekend. Doing inventory is so physically demanding and I burn lots of calories moving boxes, organizing shelves and going up and down ladders. I work until 7:30 pm and then go to my son's football game at 8pm. No, they're not in the NFL, but he has 2-3 games during the week and they last for 2 hours! Looks like it'll be another long one tonight. They're 0 - 4. Hopefully, they're win tonight!
