October MOVE-IT 180 to 360+ minutes a week challenge!!

Well Fall is here and so is a time to set new goals. We have 3 more months left in 2012. What are your fitness goals? Are you still getting in those workouts? Do you need a little more motivation? If so please join us. :flowerforyou:

We are a group who are committed to doing 180 to 360+ minutes of exercise each week (minimum 180). We count minutes for all types of intentional exercise: aerobics, walking, weight training, strength work, stretching or heavy gardening. You be the judge of whether it's exercise or not. Shake and Jiggle it! Wiggle or Bump it! Thump and Stomp it! Womp it!! Kick it!! Flick it!!! :bigsmile:

We're here to support, encourage, and set challenges for ourselves.[/b] It's all about intention. If we don't make the 180 to 360+ minutes one week, there's next week to go for it.

The weeks starts every Monday in the month and ends the following Sunday at midnight. Then we start all over again the following Monday for week 2, 3, and 4. (and some months week 5)

Newcomers are always welcome!:flowerforyou:

If at first you don't succeed, you keep trying...just keep coming back to report progress or non-progress...it doesn't matter...it keeps us accountable and that's how we commit to healthy lifestyles. It is a chance to meet new friends and encourage one another along the way.:flowerforyou:

You can use below form OR make up your own. So who's in for Week #1,2,3, or 4 sometimes 5??

    Just a quick question, as I've never done this one before :blushing:
    Do we update it daily or at the end of the week?
