    In answer to your questions (only because I've done this before) - try to get them done all at once, as much as you can... the benefits of doing them back to back is the cardio effect and keeping your heart rate up for optimal burn and weight loss. However, this is only Day 1 so just push yourself as far as you can go but keep listening to your body! If your body is physically unable to perform, take a break or switch/modify the exercise. This isn't a race. You are only in competition with yourself! I hope this helps!

    Edited to say: If you have to lower the reps then do 10 reps of one then 10 of the next and 15 of the next and so forth.... then go back and start over, doing an additional 10 of the first one, 10 of the next, 15 of the next. If that's what it takes to get it done, then so be it but try to get them all done at one time!

    I still can't believe that all of those exercises are just for ONE day! Seems like when we did the last challenges, we only had 4 or 5 exercises to do each day. The long list kinda scared me but I managed to make it through (with a few modifications). Whew!

    Call me crazy but I'm going to try and start out with advanced. I was doing so well last year and since september I've been slacking on all forms of excercise except a treadmill walk here and there. Good luck everyone.

    Not sure I will have time for the run, or my calves can handle it right now. They're Pretty sore! I will try to walk instead just for today! :smile:

    I did MOST of the advanced moves today except for the side planks, I tried to do them I just cannot hold myself up yet, I made it for about 10 seconds on each side so I'm going to keep working on those and hopefully get better and better! Also its cold and windy outside and my little guy is getting sick so I did Leslie Sansones walk away the pounds 3 mile Abs. Hope this is OK!

    Beginning exercises done. I did end up breaking it up into two sections though. Did 1.5 mile walk after lunch and just shut my office door and did everything else (about two hours later). I modified the lunges to keep my front foot elevated because of my knee problems otherwise did everything as stated or with suggested modifications. Definitely got my heart rate up!

    Got 'er done.... great workout! I have been concentrating on cardio only this month - averaging 10000 steps per day. So this was great to get some of the strength in! Looking forward to tomorrow :)
