Happy Monday to All,
This is the post for the mini challenges for the whole weekWeek 2 of our November Challenge and will contain Mini Challenges for the entire week. I will also be posting them daily on the homepage with an added motivational quote.. These are just a suggestion and I am by no means a professional in diet or fitness. Please do at your own level to avoid any kind of injury.. The suggestion is to do just a little bit better this time than you did last time and most of all "try" to have fun...
