WEEK 2 (MAY 8-MAY 14)

ashleyeliz25

Week 2 already!!! Week 2 starts Wednesday May 8th and ends Tuesday May 14th (7 days).

What goals do you have for Week 2?

Are you setting your goal higher or lower than last week? Keep in mind setting your goal lower can be a good thing too especially if you feel like your body needs some rest (we don't want any injuries!!!)

Are you changing anything this week that you did or didn't do last week?

Do you have new goals for this week that you didn't try for week 1? Or goals that you weren't able to accomplish during week 1?

Just some questions to get you thinking about Week 2

I didn't reach my goal on week 1 so I'll try again.

In week 2, I want to walk different paths with hills to work those legs and buns.

Do some kickboxing workouts from youtube.

Bike some more.

I reached my 1200 calorie goal last week, but just barely and most was in one day. My goals for week 2 are 2000 calories burned, 800 calories higher than last week, and to spread it out a little better. I am also doing a squat challenge and keeping right along. This week includes the end of finals, so I'm going to have to get my butt to the gym a little more often than I have been. Good to get rid of some of this stress...

Week 2 is probably going to be slower for me, because I'm going to Vegas Thursday night, coming back Monday night. I don't think I'm only going to continue with the May crunches challenge while over there, so will have to make up in my other days.
So tomorrow and Thursday, I'm going to try to kill it, then hope for an energetic Tuesday when I'm back. If I can manage to burn 700 each day, I should still be good on my end of month goal.
Good luck everybody!

I'm going to change my goal for the month. With so many renovation happening and yard work, I won't be getting as many workout in. My goal for this week is 1200, if I can get that much in on top of everything that is going on I will be pleased.

elizajane1

well I did better than I thought I would for week one! I burned 5061!!!
I would like to make at least 5000 for week 2

erinprattavila

I too did better than I thought!! I am hoping I can do as well next week. My goal will be to try other machines at the gym besides the elliptical. I don't care for the treadmill so maybe a stair climber or bike. Hard to break old habits, but we will see. Good luck everyone, lets go burn some calories. :bigsmile:

I am setting a goal again of 2000 cals burned but I am going to try to go over because after this week I have a couple of really crazy busy work and kid activity filled weeks. I need a buffer going into them if possible to meet my month goal of 8000.

My goal for this week is exactly the same as last... 6,300 calories!!

Delll2013

Looking back at this week, I'm satisfied with how things went. I exceeded my goal by 1000 but I could have pushed even harder.

The aim for this week is:
- increase the distance ran outside/treadmill by at least 10%
- take a long walk at a brisk pace on my rest day
- take at least one class in the gym for variation (just tried bikram yoga yesterday and loved it)
- increase the duration of my workouts by 10 minutes every day

I hope this will take me to at least 4000 calories on week 2.

My goal for this week is 5500 since I'm not gonna do super intense cardio exercises this week (finished Insanity on Monday so I'm gonna take it easy this week and then start doing Insanity and some other workouts again). I may go way over if I bike a lot, though.

ChangeIsADecision

I did better than I thought last week so I'm UPPPPPin' my goal!!

Last week I did 1,952 calories burned - THIS WEEK i'm going for 2,000!!! Not sure I'll make it but I'm gonna try!!
I've got 134 in already... ha!!

Increasing this weeks to make up for the bit that I was short last week. Aiming for 5,621.

Alotalove4u

@Airant, I know it's not but Im drinking alot of protein, Im just getting frustrated and I want to loose this weight ASAP!!!!!
and I tried eating 2300 cal a day and didnt loose anything, so I figured taking in fewer calories, Then I should see a change, Im only doing this for this week..Thanks so much for the advice...

Morning, Ladies!

The week started great on this side of the world with 515 calories burned. I'm actually more thrilled that I managed to increase my speed on the treadmill for hal of the workout.

Today is my rest day so I might just go for a long walk.

Do any of you take rest days?

wtw0n

Do any of you take rest days?

I take rest days when I feel that I need them. I exercise pretty much every day, but I usually take it easy once a week and only do stretching/yoga/pilates and maybe slow walking/bicycling.

Delll2013

Thanks for the answer!

I missed my goal by 71 last week (burned 2921 out of 3000). This week I'm going to bring it down to 2,500, since I'm back in school and have built in rest days with my work and school schedule being crazy. I take off Monday since I'm at work from 7:30am-5:00pm and then class from 5:30pm-11pm, and Wednesdays is the same, except I get finished with class at 9pm. So I give myself those days. Sometimes I'm able to fit in a workout at work (I work at a PT office), but if I have a lot of patients, it's not feasible.

2,500 for this week - let's do it!

Losing 6lbs is my goal this week.

Renovation were not on the plans for this month but with the weather finally turning nice and it's still to wet to work at our friends house we switched our plans. But between everything that has to get done at home, work and looking after my granddaughter, I don't get to go to the gym. Burning lots of calories just not one's that count in this challenge. Yesterday was 567 burned (l don't count housework that's just to help with my mistakes on my food calories) only 239 count so I'm on track with my new goal of 1200 a week. So I'm pleased with what I'm doing, just not going to come close to 10, 000 calories that count for the month.

I didn't quite reach my goal last week - but was close. I really want to reach 3000 for this week. But life has a way of intervening. I am already a day behind and today isn't looking good either (all 3 of my kids are participating in the district track meet). I am hoping to get home in time to go for a power walk before it gets dark! At least that is my plan! :happy:
