    OK Challengers, below is the list of September Challenges thrown down my Team Abnehmen. We will start these next week 09/05/11 :bigsmile:

    Monday: Weigh in (1 pt)
    Muscle Monday: At least 30 minutes of strength training (1pt) can be body weight

    Tuesday: Rep’n Tuesday
    Add 20 minutes to a cardio workout. (1pt)
    Add 20 reps to a work out like sit ups, push up. (1pt)

    Wednesday: Something new, New exercise routine that you have never done before. So if you have never tried yoga then
    that would count as a new routine for that day. (1pt)
    Water down Wednesday. Make your recommended water intake (1pt)

    Thursday: Throw-down Thursday: Challenge another teammate to burn more calories or workout longer, whichever, than
    yourself. (1 pt)
    It’s good for you: Hit your fiber and Vegetable/fruit goals. (1pt)

    Friday: 3 day grace, doing 3 days of 45+min of exercise during the week (1pt)
    Take it outside, doing some type of exercise (cardio, stretch) outside (1pt)

    Weekends continue to be a team burn challenge.

    Those look great! I'm not working out outside as it is already 80-85 degrees here at 5:00 a.m., but I'm on board for all the rest. Hopefully my Northern teammates will be able to pick up my slack on that one!

    Hmm. Just re-read. Stretching outside in the morning might not be so bad. I nay be able to hold my own.

    Question: for Rep'n Tuesday, how do we determine the added 20 minutes? If I'm running 30-60 minutes normally, would I have to run 80 minutes for it to count, or would 50 suffice?

    If you already run 60 then you would add 20min. (not far if you are use to doing 60 and you get the point for doing 50) I personally do 45 min when i comes to cardio (when on the machines) so for me it would be 85min to get the point. Same with the reps, I usally do three sets of what ever exercise I'm doing (curls, situps, push ups) so I would add a few more to each rep to get at least 20 extra in for the point.

    At first I was worried when I read the challenge for fridays next month since the Texas heat has been CRAZY this summer, it has been 108-112 degrees here the last month. Then I remembered how much I loved the steam room at the gym I used to go to. So, I wont be walking or running outside anytime soon but yoga outside iearly morning or evening would be nice. I havent used my pool for anything but an airconditioner this summer since the house is still about 80-85 inside. We just go sit in it to cool off and head back inside. This gives me great incentive to do some water aerobics and do some little laps.
    Thanks for your creativity! Great job!

    For Throw Down Thursday-do both people participating get the point or only the winner? And can the challenge be to a person on another team?

    60 minutes is my long run for the week, typically on Sarurday. I've twice now been able to push it to 72 without vomitting, so maybe I could do 80. I'll try. Thanks for the push.

    If I vomit, though, I'm going to tack some extra time onto one of my shorter runs-- either the 30 or the 45 minute run. Well, it's Tuesday so that would be the 45 minute run day usually.

    Thanks!

    I belive you both should get a point for doing the challenge but only one gets the braggin rights for the week. (and if you win you can brag all you want) I think its a good option to choose a team member from a differnt team as well. allows us to get to know other NYBNY challengers as well.

    If Tuesday is your normal 45min run day, then add 20 min to that. I didn't mean you have to add 20 to your longest run time. (I'm not that Cruel) But if you want to challenge me to a 80 min run, well we can do that, and by run I mean walk and by walk I mean really slow like 2.5 on the tread mill. LOL

    LOL indeed! This gave me images of challenging somebody to a lengthy, slow walk-off! I think walking on the treadmill at like 1.5 for 80 minutes would be tantamount to torture! lol
