Week 4 (22nd Sept)

Options
Once again there will be two challenges this week.

First of all I will be bringing back the 8 glasses of water a day challenge as I think it is important and its good to keep and eye on how much you are consuming. You will get a point for each day you manage the amount.

The second challenge is similar to the 100 workout.
You will get a point for everyday you complete the challenge. if you need to you can spread the activities throughout the day there are some cardio, strength and abs moves so there is something for everyone.

100 Workout

100 jumping jacks
90 crunches
80 squats
70 Twist jumps
60 fist punches
50 lunges with bicep curls
40 leg lifts
30 butt kicks
20 Push ups
10 bicycle crunches
«13

    Now that sounds like a challenge!! Hopefully I will be able to get these done, as I failed miserably with the last exercise challenge:)

    I failed last week as to the fact I don't have a way to do my work out dvds. But I will accept this challenge!

    What kind of leg lifts do you mean? There are a couple of variations, also 70 lifts per leg? Or is it 35 and 35, to total 70.

    Sorry for the lack of clarity I am going to try video myself doing all of these but for now a twist jump is like this but a more exaggerated twist and not on a balance ball

    Hmm - glad the water one is back in. Will be substituting some of these I found it hard to build in to my existing workouts but will definitely give it a go.

    Sounds like a great challenge :D
    But....I'm probably going to have to excuse myself from it as I'm having all four of my wisdom teeth removed this morning O.o

    Huzzah! ever since doing this challenge I've kept my daily water intake at around 8-9 glasses. I have this down! *cackles*

    10 bicycle crunches

    You mean all of that in one day, every day? o_O
    *gulp*

    I should figure out what some of these mean before I start getting properly intimidated, though. "Bicycle crunches"?

    100 Workout, sorry never heard of this? Does this mean we do every exercise you listed each day? Or we pick and choose any of the exercises listed as long as you total 100?

    Example if I do:

    50 lunges with bicep curls
    30 butt kicks
    20 Push ups
    =100
