    I think a new or added format sounds good. I had a tough time fitting some of the longer workouts in too...like this week needing an additional 5K on a few of the days on top of the workouts I'm already doing (maybe doing the 30 day shred wasn't the best idea for September along with the challange).

    I agree, I'd like the exercises to be mixed up a bit more and maybe make them harder, rather then LONGER....fitting in an 'additional" 5K just didn't work out for me....on those days JUST the challenge workouts became my work outs. If they are "additional" challenges I think they shouldn't take more then 15-20 minutes to complete total.....for me, THAT's do-able...one weekly extra that may take 30-45 minutes to complete (or like the crunches, can be spread out over several days) is a good format for me.

    ME, ME, ME ;) sorry to sound like ti's all about me!

    We Work Out!!!


    EPIC! :heart: haha glad I some influence. :wink:


    As for the weekly exercises, adding in some other things would be awesome. It sometimes hard to push through the ones we have because they are so repetitive. I'm super stoked for October!!

    Finally checked out the bodyrock.tv website. That lady is fit! I'd be up for trying some of her workouts and some of the challenges. I've really been doing the challenge workouts and not having time for my own workout or the other way around. 100 toe touches takes forever!

    Does the challenge end tomorrow?? Just realized that it's the 30th tomorrow. I will not make my goal if it ends tomorrow but at least I have had a loss this month so that is a positive!!

    Isn't she insane!? what i like about the site is that they have some very basic extreme beginner exercises, all the way up to to mega advanced!!

    Yes, the challenge ends tomorrow!! Final september info will need to be in to me over the weekend, so don't weigh in until Saturday morning! :) gives you the whole day tomorrow to help meet that goal!! I will be making a new spreadsheet and putting it on googledocs for all of us to access. Since i'm going to be using the same format that Gary provided for the last 2 challenge months, I will be tracking team points, but will also add individual points!!! See if we can't get some individual competition within the team! :)

    Can't wait to finish up this month and move on to next month!

    Completed 5 5Ks and did a total of 700 crunches this week!! My abs are S-O-R-E!
    Ending weight: 244.8
    I didn't loose as much weight as I was hoping for (10 lbs), BUT I did loose. I started the month at 248.5, had a gain because of some medication that I was on and weighed in at 250.9 on 9/5. So overall, since the 1st week of Sept I have lost a total of 6.1 lbs. woohoo!!

    Now, I'm ready to truffle shuffle the crap out of October!!!!!!!!!!!!! :laugh:
