HELLO SHREDDERS!!!!!


Hope you don't mind me still setting some challenges..... I will continue to do them with you even though I have had to stop the 30day shred ( for this month!).

So today's challenge is all about.................... Core strength.


To do this challenge, everyone must lay on the floor on their backs. Now set a timer for 90 seconds and I want to see how many times you can get up to your feet ( standing) and back down again without using your hands.

lets see who can do the most and maybe record it on our charts and then we can come back to it at the end of the 30days and see if we can do it any faster??

Good luck peeps!!!

PS - don't forget to drink your water today lol

    So I just told my daughter what today's challenges are..(I do this and another thing too) She is laughing at this one. She is 18. She wants the video camera. She thinks this will be funny to watch. I raised an evil child. OK off to get laughed at.

    Ten and was about half up when time went off.. And yes she laughed at me.. More so when I was getting back on the floor, trying to hurry.. it wasn't very graceful going down.. Will see if I can improve that.

    KerriMx, at least your child is 18 already... My daughter is 2 1/2 and thinks its HILARIOUS when I do the 30DS video. All I hear is snickering and giggles and : "Mommy what're you doin' ? That's SO silly ! You silly Mommy..... Why you so wet ?" LOL

    So a kid funny.. Until I get a new bra (see the things I am willing to share) my boobs bounce to much on those darn jumping jacks. Somethimes I hold them. Well that gets giggles out of everyone. So. the other day the 8 year old was complaining about how much her soccer couch made them run. I told her to be quiet or I would make her do a jumping jack. She knew I was kidding with her. She looks at me and says "at least I don't have to hold my boobs." ;p

    I have to laugh at your response about your 2 1/2 yr old. My son will be 2 in december and i have been 30ds for 3 days so far. The first day I did it, my son thought it would be fun to sit on my stomach and laugh while trying to do the abs portion. Talk about silly!

    lol @ holding your boobs.... I have to do that AND hold my jelly belly!!

    I've also got a 2 year old who wants to hold onto my legs and then jump on my tummy when I'm on the floor... cheaper than a new set of weights lol..

    BTW Kerry - well done on 10!!!
