    would you consider gardening cardio? I just did 45 min of it . Just wondering, I want to get a walk in today but right now it's too hot for me to do any hard cardio. Hopefully it will cool down enough for me to take the dog out. Hope everyone is having a great Saturday.

    yes, anything that you normally wouldn't have done and gets your heart going a little I consider it. We like to focus on people just moving more :)

    Took a 5 minute walk to a yard sale near my house and I did 30 minutes of various calisthenic/cardio this evening. I usually log this as "calisthenics" but I'm not sure... what would you consider this circuit?

    50jumping jacks
    40 crunches
    30 calf raises
    20 squats
    10 pushups

    I do this 10 times and it takes me 15 minutes... Always just went basic and logged calisthenics...

    Woot! Jumping jack's acomplished!

    Had a bit of trouble staying within my calories yesterday, because I'm away with family, but did complete the challenges. :)

    I did my 100 jumping jacks and 75 squats (3 x 25 with weights) alternating between the two. I also went and did a jog to get some cardio in. Have a fantastic day all.
