Hi Group, Last weekend was one of the highest in terms of calories burnt. Almost 18000 calories were burnt and this was a good improvement from recent average of 14000 or so. Weekend is here again and I hope all of you will participate with the same enthusiasm.
Last week has not been great for many of us in terms of exercises and woekouts. Lets try to make a recovery over the weekend and try to burn as many calories as we can. Lets push ourselves harder!!!

    Saturday's burn: 1542.

    I'm becoming so much more active on the weekends because of these challenges; I feel a habit forming. And i'm starting to feel more energetic and i'm sleeping better. Very happy about that. If only I can commit to an exercise routine during the week, but one step at a time I guess.

    Saturday was a blah day for me but Sunday morning was different. I went for a run and burned 1032 calories. Woot! Nothing like what everyone else seems to be burning this weekend, but I felt good.

    Had a little less energy today than yesterday, but I managed to do a good burn of 1061 today. For the weekend my total is 2603 calories burnt. Hoping I can have the same amount of motivation during the week to complete my workout plans.

    1000 calories over the weekend is looking like a joke now:laugh: well done everybody.

    I think next week's challenge should be 1500 cals minimum. I can see many people doing more than 1500 regularly. What do you guys think?

    I agree lol. The first few weeks the 1000 calories was challenging (at least for me), but now I'm so much more active that I can easily meet the goal.

    I got to 1168 this weekend!
    804 on Saturday
    364 on Sunday

    1500 is going to be rough for me, but I'm up for the challenge.
