Challenge to Purple People Eaters

supermom1114

So we all know the little things add up, right? So my challenge is to make the most of the little things. Examples include-
Parking farther away from your destination and power walking in
Taking the stairs whenever possible
Do jumping jacks, sit ups push ups w/e during commercial breaks on TV
Pushing for one extra rep or one extra lap when exercising
At any store make a few laps around the entire thing before n after shopping.

Feel free to add on and remember WE CAN DO THIS

I always walk to the corner store instead of drive
Also, my 4 yr old likes to be carried from time to time, and instead of grumbling, I think of the calories.
Chasing the hubby around the bed for a few laps....

I don't mind jumping jacks but everytime I jump in the house, the house shakes. Now how heavy do you have to be to worry about knocking stuff off when you jump? Dang! :embarassed: I have to do them lightely and they don't feel as effective.

If you dont like jumping jacks, do high knees, where you bring your thighs up parallel to the ground while sorta running, hard to explain I guess lol or if you have some kind of step or a box sturdy enough to step on, do some steps during commercials

Tonight I was powerwalking and I'd set my goal for 30 min(plus warm up and cool down) but I remembered this challenge and pushed for another lap around the block which added another 5 min, We Can Do This Purple Team!!! Just One Step & One Pound At A Time!!!

I like jumping jacks.....I just need to do them on a sturdier floor like my garage or just head outside! Maybe get me a jump rope too and try that some. I used to love that!!

I need to get some jumping jacks in but will have to wait til I go outside! My floor seems to flimsy to me. Even though my daughter and hubby jumped all over the house this morning!

OK Great news, my house is still standing and not in that bad of shape. I just did 2 sets of 20 jumping jacks. I will do one more set after I type this. So I guess jumping jacks are in. :blushing:
