Hi everyone! Pam is a bit under the weather these last few days. So I will be helping her out till she gets better. I hope I do her justice::embarassed:

Ok teams here we go! This week we will be only doing a Physical Challenge. I feel most of us will need it, since Thanksgiving is coming up next week. Ok so I know that everyone has different schedules. Let's try and add extra minutes to our regular exercise time. For example if you run 40 minutes a day, add 5,10 or 15 minutes to your daily activity. So please post how many minutes of exercise and how many calories you burn daily! The team with the most calories burned wins this weeks challenge!

Good Luck everyone! PAM GET BETTER SOON!!!:flowerforyou:

    I didn't want to do cals burned because my heart monitor broke, but I guess that I could use myfitnesspal counter.

    Thursday:
    58 minutes of plyo - 743 cals burned

    Friday-:
    51 minutes of turbo jam- 676 cals burned

    Saturday and Sunday rest days!

    Well I went to a physiotherapist yesterday to see if they could help with my knee. She hooked me up to the machine and it seems to have helped a bit with the swelling. I am hoping that this is the start to recovery and I will be back burning calories soon.

    In the meantime, I am happy to see others doing so well. Keep up the great work!!

    Cheers,
    Alison
