I will join this month!!! I see the numbers went up from all 50's but I should be able to manage

I am Carrie and I am a single mother who has gotten it in her head to run a full marathon.... on Oct 16th I am running a half! :bigsmile: I am in my "last ten pounds" phase and I know that toning is important.

If you want to start today, the mission is 50 sit-ups. This is the schedule for Oct for those that keep track everyday. I also post the mission everyday on here and on the home page. I am mixing things up with different quantities and a new exercise compared to Sept when it was the same routine and 50 of each. Saturday is focused on water and Sunday is a rest day. Just jump right in.

Yes, just water intake - I am really bad about my water on weekends. Welcome aboard

Hey Beth....

Can you explain, or post youtube videos, the difference between a situp and a crunch? I use that word interchangable for the same exersice.

Also if you don't mind, for toning I am going to add on Sat 50 tricep extensions because I see the only arm toning exercise is pushups. That will make two exercises for each the legs (squats/lunges), abs (situps/(rev)crunches), and arms (pushups/extensions).

You are awesome for working this out!!! Thanks! :bigsmile:

I did not get my water in yesterday but that is because I was in a car all day traveling across state and didn't have the opportunity to keep a water supply.

I can't wait to start the weekly set tomorrow!!!!

This sounds awesome! I am so in. I think I'll do like carrriebear and add an arm toning exercise on Saturday. My arms are my biggest problem area.

I'm in! Can these numbers be broke down through out the day or is the goal to do all at once? Looking forward to the challenge

Beth's Angels Toning Group: Today starts out new set of missions with variety and change. So, today's mission is 75 sqauts. You can do it - I know it is more, but we can handle 25 more, right? Oh, I did do my 50 push-ups from Friday yesterday. Check in when completed!!! Stay strong and we are all getting toned together.

Carrie - I will try to explain the difference between a sit-up and crunches. When you do a sit-up, your feet are flat on the floor and you come the whole way up off the floor into a sitting position whereas for a crunch you are just crunching forward with your head coming off the floor. They are similar but you use more muscles in a sit-up than a crunch. I am sure you can google a sit-up if you still have questions. If you can't handle a sit-up just do crunches (they both work the abs just sit-ups work different ones). I hope this helps.

As for your other questions, it is always ok to do extra stuff - I do extra stuff sometimes my self.

75 squats are done while in the restroom - now my legs feel like jello (awesome feeling).
