    Hi everyone
    Hope you are all getting on ok.
    As a pre-squash workout I thought I'd do a couple of days challenges. I dotn know what windscreen wipers so I have pended those until I know:

    200 JJ's
    200 crunches
    3 set of 21's
    2 sets of swimmers presses (I did 15 reps each set)
    50 kick squats
    50 split squats
    50 weighted squats (my own challenge)
    3 sets of woodchops!

    Have left the tuck jumps for when I'm at the gym as I have an old lady living below me... think these might sound like a baby elephant having a fit!!

    Hope your all great. :flowerforyou:

    Gary posted this yesterday. I'm at work so I can't watch the video to see if this is the right one.

    Yep, those are the windshield wipers!




    IMPORTANT SEPTEMBER CHALLENGE SERIES MESSAGE:

    A decision has been made to overhaul the point system for our challenge series. Obtaining information from teammates has become a full time chore for some of our team captains. That was not the goal. To alleviate this stress in September we will track only % weight loss for points. Some of you will be upset I understand. But remember the teams are designed to only build community and motivational support and a smidge of competition. If you choose to not do the daily challenges you could lie and say you did so its all on an honor system. The main purpose is to help motivate you to do something new and to move each day. With that said we will implement the new points system for September. On August 30th I need the total points for each team sent to me....all 4 weeks added up and I'll announce the winner. Please submit with your total the individual who lost the most weight for your team and the # of lbs lost so I can determine our winner and shower them with our prizes! Any questions let me know. Any complaints.....meh

    ALL SEPTEMBER TEAMS...

    After a HUGE amount of people freaked out... the point system will remain the same...

    here is Gary's message...

    ATTENTION ALL CHALLENGE SERIES CONTESTANTS! Due to the overwhelming concern about the points system I've decided we will move forward in September using the complete points system as we used in August. Here's the deal......its your responsibility to contact your team captain each week with your information and weight. Captains will not be tracking you down. You dont' report....you hurt your team. We're all adults and I'm counting on each team member to participate. You may also send a report 2 or 3 times a week saying I've completed Mon - Wed. I have teammates that do that! LETS GET TRIBAL IN SEPTEMBER!

    For those staying with me, I have made a Google Docs Spreadsheet for each of you... you can fill this in yourself and I will fill from that to the main spreadsheet... If you cannot do google docs or are not particularly computer literate, I will still continue to receive as messages, but you MUST message me... I cannot track you down, with school, work, scouts, volunteer work, AND trying to do this MYSELF also!!! lol :-) (If you do not have a google account I will send you the invite, so you can access this)

    ary sent this out and it seemed to really cover what we need to do for the challenge today!

    GARY 6030 - TODAY'S CHALLENGE! Day 4: 40 ZigZag Hops, 3 sets of 21’s, 2 sets of 15 Swimmer’s Press The video for Zig Zag Hops can be found on this website. http://www.sport-fitness-advisor.com/plyometricexercises.html Anything can be used pillows in a row anything. A rope. The object is to hop some distance. A rope would make a line but you need to shoot for further than just the other side. You will go left and then right to = 1 zig zag hop. Remember when landing allow your muscles and not your joints to absorb the impact of the landing. This is a body mechanic as a team we need to start practicing to keep our joints healthy.
