    WEEK 1 – DAY 1

    In view of Gary still being MIA, I am setting an alternative challenge. If like me you are running out of time, please complete ONE of the following:

    Plan A (Low Impact)
    2 sets of 21's (you will complete one set by doing each move 7 times),  2 sets of 8 - 12 Swimmer's Presses,  100 punches (while standing or sitting in a chair quickly extend and alternate each arm while punching a target straight in front of you. (I always imagine myself punching fatty!)  Do these as quickly as you can being careful to not pop/snap your elbows.  Take a break.  Sometime today walk for 5 - 10  minutes.  As slow or as fast as you can.  If you can't do 5 - 10 minutes than walk as far as you can!  Remember your are stronger than you think.  Record how far you walked and tomorrow determine to walk farther even if its just one step farther

    Plan B (Mid Impact)
    2 sets of 15 swimmer presses, 2 sets of 15 wood chops, 2 sets of 21’s, 2 sets of 15 lawnmowers AND 1 mile walk, jog or run.

    Plan C (High Impact)
    4 min Tabata, Overboard in October exercises on http://mfpchallenges.blogspot.com/2011/09/overboard-in-october-exercises.html

    Please keep checking the above website and it Gary posts this weeks challenges, please let me know (via the forum) whiich set of exercises you completed.

    So everyone should get a laugh out of this, call it mommy brain or what ever. So I was so excited to see that Jules had put up a challenge I start out with option A, then proceed to do option B then I come back to get the web page with option C on it and guess what I realize that I don't have to do all the options just had to pick one. Seeing as I want to challenge myself, I'm off to try the Overboard in October Exercises. Will check back shortly.

    Hopefully I can follow directions in the future better, please don't make me walk the plank.

    I am SO amused!!!
    Love that enthusiasm - just don't over do it !! :laugh:
  • I feel a little silly asking, but is there somewhere that explaines how the exercises are done? I don't see a description for the 21's, swimmers presses, wood chops, or lawnmowers. :embarassed:

    Thanks everyone.

  • Hi everyone, it was so nice catching up and reading all about you.

    My name is Crystal, also known as Davy Rock-Hit #214 Queen of the Derby Frontier. I am 27 years old. I am a social worker, I currently do therapy and psychosocial rehabilitation. I live in Idaho, I have two sons ages 6 and almost 8 and I have been married 9 years. I am encouraged about losing weight but the process is very sl-o-o-owww for me. I am sure that there are many people with that in mind. I like these challenges though and figure that being toned is so much better because of the benefits… especially in relation to derby…endurance is everything and I definitely need to increase my strength and stamina so bring it on!

    Starting weight on MFP 234.6 (July)
    Current weight 209.2
    Goal weight 145
    How much I'd like to lose by the end of September 10lbs

    Today’s exercises are Plan C (High Impact) done, along with my calories and water being in check! Thanks for being such a great team!

    So, since today was my first day, I went with Option A
    Over on the water and under on the calories!!
    I have a few extra calories so I think a bag of Kettle Korn microwave popcorn is my evening snack
