    Hey,

    I drank 102 oz today. This really isn't such a stretch for me. I drink a lot every day.
    Workout completed. I did the set twice but the pushups were modified and without the plyometrics. :blushing: I don't think I could push off the floor to save my life and if I did manage it, I would probably land on my face.

    Wednesday check in -

    Exercises completed! I did it 2 times, but my pushups were modified. I tried to do the plyo ones, but I have rotator cuff problems, and they screamed "NO", so I only got in 3 of those puppies!!

    I am still working on my water - will update later.

    How did everyone's first day go? I hope you all had a successful day!

    Good morning!

    How did everyone's first day go? I hope you did well!

    :cry: I did not complete the water challenge yesterday! I totally forgot about it for a few hours, so no sipping...only got to 80 oz! But I will make it today!

    There are a few team members who have not checked in yet. Please reach out and friend everyone on the list.

    Have a great day! :flowerforyou:

    hips 46

    Hey All,

    Thursday's workout is done and so is the water. I love arm challenges. I have spent the last few years concentrating on my lower body and let my upper body get soft. Time to try and balance things out.

    Hi teams! I'm Noelle, and I'm not on a team this month, but I might sneak into the group from time to time to say hello and steal some of the exercises. Jackie's a GREAT captain (as you returners know and newbies will soon learn), and the groups are always full of wonderful folks with lots of support and good ideas. So, good luck to the Movers and the Shakers in August, and I'll be cheering you on from the sidelines! :happy:

    Check in.

    Well done to you all for doing the challenges,.

    Thursday challenge: I didn't post for yesterday but I did the exercises (but not the shoulder press because of a past injury) I usually drink 3 liters of water anyway so water challenge is fine.

    Friday challenge: exercise: Done (after a lot of effort. My abs are practically non-existent!) Water: done

    :)

    Friday Check-in:
    4 more ounces and th water is done.
    Leg workout done. I did 15 minutes and 3 full sets. I got about 15 of the walking lunges when the timer went off. I took small steps on the lunges because of my knee. Long lunges do a real number on me.

    Ketty, if you don't like water, I bet this week has been a beast for you.:sad:
