    There's a charity step up event coming up in August that I'm interested in. It's going up and down all the steps in the pro soccer stadium. So... I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I'll continue with the squats for a while longer. I feel certain that the squats are what made that steep hiking trail so ... easy .

    I agree calisthenics are great exercise.

    07/11/2012 - 300 squats and lunges

    barbiecat- the step up event sounds great! Wow! I cannot imagine doing such a thing myself. The squats and lunges definitely help with various other exercises.

    Second day of travel in DC

    100 crunches. 50 back extentions

    Two and one half hours walking at moderate pace through DC in the evening. Still a little hot but nice breeze. My feet hurt a little.

    100 abdominal leg lifts.

    Long day of working in DC and travel back home. Rainy evening and flight delays. I am extremely tired.:yawn: If it wasn't for this 100 day challenge, I would have gone to bed and worry about exercise tomorrow. But I am committed and determined and I made it happen TODAY. Victory tastes sweeter with a little sweat!

    barbiecat - line dancing sounds like so much fun. My parents have done it before, and my mother especially loved it. I am definitely going to have to try it one day.

    lisadlocks - you have great strength to keep up with the challenge even though you were tired.

    clover5 - you are on fire as always.

    Day 3---7/13--100 poses


    we got up this morning to thunder and lightning and scared dogs.......I managed to find time between storms for a great walk with the dogs....the line dance class this morning turned out great.....there were almost 40 people there.....the class in the afternoon was cancelled because all four of the students in the class weren't able to be there.....I celebrated my surprise free time by taking a nap with the dogs to cuddle with them while the thunder continued outside.

    :flowerforyou: Lisa, I'm glad you're home safe....travel is great but there's no place like home

    :flowerforyou: MuffRuff, there are line dances classes in a lot of places....someone told me that if you call a senior center or a community center they often know where there are classes......line dancing doesn't burn calories like the great workouts you do but it requires a lot of brain power along with the physical movement.
