    I'm backing out of this weeks challange.. I can't burn enough calories to make my challange.

    I hate backing out but I doubt I can get nearly 3000 cals in 3 days :(

    Don't ever give up on a challenge. Just adjust your goal so you still push yourself this week. Maybe only 2,000 calories total?

    Optional Bonus Challenge: Challenge yourself to something that you need an extra push for.

    Hmm....well I been "stuck" with my decline leg press part of my strength training workout. currently at 920# I am going to break this plateau.

    Tuesday Update:
    Still @920 with the decline leg press.

    Thursday Update: So my gym buddy who hasn't been comming to the YMCA with me the past month cuz he is LAZY came with me Thursday and I mentioned about still being at 920# on the decline leg press. I did it again and sure enough 920#.

    Gym Buddy: soo....1023# congrats! you broke 1000#!
    Me: what?
    Gym Buddy: 103# for the inital resistance weight with no weights on plus the 920# you add on it's 1023#
    Me: oh.......

    So apparently I have been miscalculating and forgot to include the inital 103# that the machine is with no weights on it. So I haven't been stuck at 920# but 1023# :embarassed:
