    Just a run by...

    All Bushmen are complete for today... loved all the ST exercises. Almost missed the 2 sets of 21's on the list.

    I also saved the bear walk for last... OM I had to start and stop 5 times because I ran out of room and we just have tile so it was hard on my wrists. But I did it for 3 mins. If this is day 2 whats day 22 like!

    Bring it ...... Gary! We are strong Anju Warriors!!!

    Was low on time this Am so opted to do the challenge first thing and save my 'normal' workout for this evening. So check on dailys. I haven't got the bear walk in yet, hoping to get that done tonight after strength training (probably not the brightest timing!) but we are still adjusting to a new schedule now that we have a kiddo in school.

    Get it done!!!

    I've done my workout already (had to run on the treadmill instead of outside since my hubby's gone) and the bushmen challenge. Gotta say, I like the arm ones better than the leg ones yesterday. I'm NOT looking forward to doing them again tomorrow.

    I've got enough water in me already to count for the challenge (I've still gotta drink more for me today, though, since I'm nursing). I also have my calories for the rest of the day mapped out so I should easily stay in range for that. If I end up going over (doubtful), I'll let you know tomorrow.

    Well, both my kids are still napping so I'm gonna log off here and do something for ME.

    Jorden, you're the best. A blog is a great idea!! It's hard for me to find the challenges when they're buried in this thread.

    I just finished up my challenge for today... it's super bloody awful horrible no-good damn hot out there today, so I did the bushmen challenge. There was just no way I was going to be walking tonight. It's almost 6pm here and it's 98 degrees. DUMB. Anyway, it went pretty well. I threw in jumping jacks and crunches for good measure. If there's one thing I struggle with, it's strength training. Pick up heavy things? Over and over? NO thank you. But this challenge is helping me see that it's not so bad! The tricep kickbacks were the hardest for me and everything else wasn't too bad! Calories and water were generally good today. I had chinese food for lunch (i didn't really have a choice)... but I think I did a really good job keeping things under control.

    Seems easy but it has to be a constant bear walk constantly moving for 3 minutes.

    Team after reading this I think I need to give the bear walk another shot... I did 3 minutes with-in 3.5 minutes?

    Every time I pop on I see someone else kickin' butt and takin' names! I love it!! Way to go Warriors!

    Jorden- you are an awesome captain. So organized and so helpful...thank you!!

    I did the pygamy challenges for the day, waters in, and I'm under my calorie (too far but I'm not feeling well, and couldn't even think about food) Gotta take a peek what's up for tomorrow. I'm off on 2 days of rest from regular routine, so I may do the bushman...we'll see. Supposed to be super hot and I still have a 2nd story of my house to paint. LoL.

    Straight straight and strong over the weekend!!

    Today I walked an extra mile (2.7 total), did the swimmer presses with 5 lb weights, bear walk for 3 mins, drank 18 cups of water, and under my cals. Great day! I know I'll be sore tomorrow! Goodnight warriors!

    Go to page 2 of this thread, it explains there. It's a bit overwhelming first starting these things isn't it?
    Looks like we let our team captain know we have completed the daily challenge every day. We weigh in every Sunday. If I'm wrong, somebody please correct me :)

    If I understand your question, the bear walk was our weekly challenge, so we do that only one time this week. Again, somebody please correct me if this isn't correct. :)
