Destined to Be a Diva Challenge Weeks 3/4

Options
Welcome to the 3rd week of the challenge divas!


Week Three/Four:

Ok ladies, two weeks into the challenge, we see what we are capable of, over the last two weeks as a team we have lost an amazing 103 LBS!!!! That is fantastic guys so lets knock the rest of October out of the park, week 3 and 4 will be a combo for bootcamp, and its asking for a lot because we are so worth it and looking at our exercise minutes I know we can do this.

As extra incentive  the top Diva Star for the next two weeks will be given a fitness goodie basket to help her with the rest of the challenge.

THE CHALLENGE:
The Workout
Monday through Saturday of both weeks, do some form of aerobic exercise (i.e., fast walking, jogging, or bicycling) for 30 minutes, morning and evening, at about 70 to 80 percent of your maximum capacity. In addition, add the following moves:

MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY
Do two sets of the following:

15 push-ups. Try the military kind.

20 biceps curls with five-pound weights. Stand straight. Keeping your elbows at your sides, bend your arms and lift the weights to your shoulders, then lower.

20 triceps kick-backs with five-pound weights. Bend forward at a 90-degree angle and place the weights by your hips. Extend your arms behind you, then back to your hips.

20 front and side shoulder raises with three-pound weights. Keeping your arms straight, lift the weights in front of you to shoulder height, then lower. Repeat, lifting weights to sides.

20 rear-deltoid lifts with three-pound weights. Stand with your feet together and bend forward at a 90-degree angle. Lift the weights straight out to your sides to shoulder height, then lower.

TUESDAY, THURSDAY, SATURDAY
Do two sets of the following:

20 squat-backs. Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart. Stick out your butt and bend your knees until your thighs are almost parallel to the floor. Straighten.

20 step-ups on each leg. Stand in front of a staircase or stepping bench and step up onto one entire foot (not just the ball) while lifting the other knee up to your belly button, then step down.

15 calf raises. Keeping your torso straight, rise up on your toes, then lower.

40 bicycles. Lie on your back, with your knees bent and fingers laced behind your head. Lift your shoulder blades and feet an inch off the floor and "pedal" by bringing one elbow to the opposite knee, then switching sides.

20 lifting crunches. Begin as above. Lift your shoulder blades an inch, then one inch higher, then another, and lower.

*Also keep in mind weigh in is on Saturday but you can start sending it in on Friday, this helps us be able to get the charts up in a timely manner, as of Saturday night if you haven’t weighed in it won’t count for your team for that week and if you miss two weigh-ins , you will be removed from your team.


Meal Plan:
Up your protein for this week make sure to include it with each meal and try to keep your cals between 1200-1400 cals. Track your food in your diary to keep on plan.

Lets get it divas!!!!!

    Alright updated challenge:

    Good morning divas!!! This week's challenge has been updated to tracking all of your food(by completing your exercise and food diary every day this week honestly :)) (to bump the scale still aim for the 1200 to 1400 range) and the exercise challenge will be to push yourself to do a two a day (work out in the morning and in the evening) and equal at least forty five mins each day, if you really want to push your self aim for at least 30 in the morning and thirty in the evening.

    Post away!

    I had a very successful day yesterday. I was up at 5am and ran 3 miles (30 minutes). There's no time for me to workout in the evening (have kiddies to bathe, make lunches and next day breakfast) so I worked out in the after noon. I did the 30DS level 2 and then took a 10 minute break and ran another 3 miles in 30 minutes. After I was done it felt amazing!!! I had a workout high. I worked out for a total of 82 minutes......and I drank 144 oz of water. My total calories consumed for the day was 1206.

    Today is shaping up to be another good day. I did my 3 mile run this morning and I plan to do the shred and another run this afternoon. I am pretty sore from the shred yesterday but hopefully I can work it out before it's time to do another round. Now I have to plan my meals for the day.

    I wasn't able to get a workout in yesterday morning (I'm coming down with a cold...) but I managed to do 45 mins on my ellipitical and Level 1 of the 30DS when I got home from work so hopefully today I will be able to do the same if this cold doesn't lay me out.

    That 30DS is no joke every time I do it I feel as though I'm about to die...


    Good Luck everyone this week!!!

    that 1200-1400 calories would not be enough for my weight and the amount of exercise i do. i need 1500 or more to keep me in fast fat burning mode. i notice that cutting my calories too low stops me from losing weight. but as far as the exercise done :)

    This has been a very rough week. I've only lost weight because of stress but I'm getting back on track.
