Love this! To be honest, most people DON'T reach 10 lbs, but it's a great motivational tool and a HUGE boost when some of them actually DO hit 10 lbs! Thanks for joining the challenge!0 -
So I've been doing some research on actual military basic training - be prepared for lots of push-ups, sit-ups, and some running... :devil:
Don't forget burpees!
All sound like fun. I'm sure my body will be hating me haha.0 -
You ready for this?!?!
Rules:
Weigh in every Friday (or whatever day you normally weigh in - and just post by Friday) on the spreadsheet
If you don't log a starting weight by 10/7, you will be deleted from the spreadsheet
If you don't log an updated weight for 2 weeks in a row, you will be deleted from the spreadsheet

Mini-Challenge for Week 1:
>As always - 64oz water/day - just DO it!
>360 push-ups...with a twist...this is only 60/day, but I want you to do it in 15 minutes...yes, that's all...60 push-ups in 15 minutes...4 per minute. I got this idea from a guy in spin class - he said they would do 1, 3, or 5 push-ups every minute for an hour and that it ended up being a KILLER ab workout. We might work up to that, but for now I just want you to do 4 per minute for 15 minutes. If you can't do a real push-up and need to be on your knees, that's fine, just do them somehow. (great for commercial breaks!!)
>3 mile run - not necessarily all at once - divide it up however you like, but by the end of next Thursday, I want you to have ran 3 miles. If you can do it all in one shot - more power to you - if you have to walk it because you can't run - that's fine - just get in 3 miles on your feet.
Not so bad, huh? Well - we still have 3 more weeks for me to add to it... :devil:
Best of luck to everyone!!! :drinker:0 -
Push-ups... Do those already. Running... I love, but my foot doesn't. Better keep the ice pack and insurance card handy! LOL!!!0

Don't hurt yourself! You probably run more than 3 miles in a week chasing after all those kiddos, though!!0 -
Just FYI - mini-challenges are NOT required! If you already have a particular exercise schedule that's working for you and you don't think you can squeeze in the mini-challenges, don't. I would much rather have you participate and be successful than to try and get all of the mini-challenges completed and end up injuring yourself.
The main goal is to do what you have to do for you!0 -
I would like to join! This will be my first challenge!0
-
I'm excited! This is my first challenge, and being an Army wife, I am familiar with all the PT exercises my hubby does. I have my first 5K next weekend, so I will definitely get my 3 miles in!0

Yayz!!! Thanks for doing this again jrdoty! I lost over 8lbs in September and I know that this challenge was a huge motivation for me! This time I really really want to hit that 10lb goal, so I'm going to try my very best this month... haha, maybe I can wear a sexy costume just in time for Halloween! XD I'm thinking pirate this year. o.O"" Anywho.... Weighing in at 167.8! Thanks again! :flowerforyou:0
