    Alright ladies, here is the Bonus challenge for this week - Remember for this week we only have 5 days left, so we need to make this week count.


    This is the email I got from Belinda -

    The weekly BONUS challenge is for each person to drink 100 oz of water per day. You will earn 1 point per day per person for them drinking 100 oz....That means 400 oz between Wednesday and Saturday! DRINK UP!! If everyone on your team does this everyday you will manage to get an extra 20 points for your team.

    Drink Drink Drink!!!

    Ladies I hope you are starting with your water, I know we do not start the challenge until tomorrow, but water is a huge benefit during weight loss...

    Good Morning Ladies -

    Here is the exercises which must be done for today - this was Belinda's posting yesterday at 7:25

    I am keeping the exercises for tomorrow rather simple since it is day one. You need to do this in a circut all at one time (not broke up through the day). You can however break up the numbers into easier sets.
    75 jumping jacks
    40 crunches/sit ups
    30 squats
    10 push ups

    I will do this tonight - i already exercised this morning.

    Good luck ladies... also please do not forget to drink your water - 100 oz per day and make sure to log them in.

    Luv Ya buddies!!!

    well I do most of those on Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred, but I will make sure to add the rest. I am a bit under the weather today (think the flu is working its way through my house) so I am going to try to get in what I can!

    I hope you feel better and actually I think resting will do more for you than working out right now.

    Take care

    sorry ladies I was way to sick could hardly walk around yesterday, so didn't get to work out at all....though I did get my water in! (since that was the only thing that I put in my body yesterday!) Im feeling much better after a day of rest so I should be able to get the exercise in today too!

    Everyone else is doing great! Keep it up!

    Ladies, here are the work outs for today

    Belinda posted yesterday, I was confused about whether these were her personal workouts or part of the challenge so I emailed her and figured everything out.

    Let see if we can do these today and post here after you complete... thanks!!!

    I am totally using the upper body workout from a challenge I did in September so if you have done Gary's challenges before these should be nothing new. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU WATCH THE VIDEOS THAT GO WITH EACH EXERCISE! Even if you think you know what the exercise it I want to make sure everyone is doing the same thing.

    2 Sets of 15 swimmers press, 2 sets of 15 wood chops, 2 sets of 21's and 2 sets of 15 tricep kickbacks

    Video:
    Swimmers press: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edj1s-BdyLA&feature=related
    Wood Chop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShEMC1Z2U4c
    21's: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIL7f7Ljb9A (note these are 7 in each position)
    Tricep Kickbacks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOeiqKL0jS4 (note this is 15 per SIDE so 30 per set)
