Super Saturday Challenge - Feb 4th

nisijam5

Maybe, you were super bad last night :devil: *raises hand*

Maybe, you want to be super bad tonight :bigsmile:

So, I'm proposing a One-Day Super Challenge:

Burn 600 calories, 100 abdominal exercises and 12 glasses of water (96 oz)

Who's with me?

Awwww, I was looking for a Saturday challenge on the boards and didn't find one....maybe, I'll look some more....100 of ab work is easy, cheesy

I'm in! This is such a good idea! Thank you for the motivation

nisijam5

i'm with you on this, though we must be mad after the last week lol, i'm chargers friend on here, he posts some great little challenges - and gives you sundays off! - so between the two of you I think I should be able to get the 600 calories burnt.
As for the water I'm doing my best to drink a gallon a day
I'll get my HRM out later on though lol

nisijam5

Bubs, I needed to do something after yesterday....LOL

Thanks, I saw charger440's challenge as well. However, I need a little more burn than that today.

I'm in, but how do you know how many calories you've burned? 600calories with only 100ab exercises? Help!?

MindyBlack

I'm in. I'm half way to calorie goal now. I'll get on the crunches and water and go for a jog or hike to bring up the calorie count. Thanks for the challenge!!

\\I don't think she means you will only do 100 abs and nothing else. I would say the cardio is up to you.IMO

nisijam5

Welcome Mindy...I am getting excited about it and I just put on my HRM to get started

Nope, you add cardiovascular with it....any exercise you want

bubblesburst80

we must both be mad, nothing wrong with that though, gets the numbers down! either on the scales or the tape measure, depending on which one is your friend!

jlambert77

nisijam5

Bubs...I was low on exercise on Thursday because of that 12 hour shift and Friday I was beat...We will rest on Sunday, right?

I know I will feel like an idiot for asking, but what is HRM? I saw it in several posts and guess I am not fully awake yet. I like the challenge idea. I am fairly new to the site and appreciate the motivation!!

Yep, that's it....break out the Wii, Zumba, Run, whatever....burn off your naughtiness :devil:

a HRM is a Heart Rate Monitor

I will rest tomorrow, need to find some energy from somewhere for monday!!

If you don't have an HRM and use MFP to calculate calories. I would say, do NOT use the full value they give you, use about 2/3rds of it. I never burn as much as MFP calculates

mdh1127

Thanks.

I will give it a shot! I have been terrible all week, and this weekend isn't looking good either (well, not calorie-wise anyways)!! Hitting the gym shortly. About 4 glasses of water in....

That is funny, because my HRM almost always says I burn MORE than what MFP calculates. I tend to use MFPs for that reason...

I'm in! Super bad last night... Well, maybe not SUPER bad.. it was only one small bottle of wine after all. I do have 2 bottles left. Needed some motivation today and this sounds perfect! Thanks!

bubblesburst80

My HRM reads over MFP too but I go with it as I know I have put that extra effort in, when I'm not as enthusiastic it reads lower than MFP so I just stick it, it seems to know my moods lol

nisijam5
