    Something for our Sept. challengers:

    If we all do our crunches
    instead of having munches,

    If we all do our bit,
    get through the September's ****
    then look in the mirror
    and go: ''Oh, you look FIT!''

    Or we all might get too thin
    through our captains being mean.
    They say we need a push
    and need to jump over a bush
    to firm up our tush.

    OH DEAR----let's rock and roll xxx

    if you are unsure about whether you want to go through the pygmy or bushman series please keep in mind, pushing yourself is good, but only you know your body, only you can stop yourself from injury and only you can make this journey for yourself. Which ever you choose, put your all into it. We can do this!!!!

    I will be doing the pygmy series with some modifications due to a (as it turns out) pretty damn serious hip injury. My doctor is pissed I didnt stop when she told me to LOL so I explained the whole challenge thing and she told me I can do it and gave me some great ideas for alternative exercises! YAY!

    Good luck to everyone, Hakuna Matata, we are gonna rock the socks right off of September!

    Weigh- In's need to be submitted to my PM

    Challenges should be submitted to the forum. I prefer daily so we know everyone is rocking it out daily, and that way if you need encouragement we can give that to you.. but if you can't do daily weekly is fine.
