    Just finished the advanced workout. Whew! I am whipped but as proud of myself as I can be. I went to the gym on my lunch hour and did 2.1 miles alternating the speed between 3.4 & 3.9 mph and the incline between 0% & 8%.

    Did it! I wasn't sure how to the toe touches. I googled it and saw multiple variations. So, to cover my bases I did the standing ones where you bend over and twist to touch each foot and I did the floor/ab version as well. If anyone could clarify this for me that would be awesome. I also did the 100 crunches and the Russian twists in place of the standing twists and the 50 crunches! I'm walking tonight after work! Whoo!

    I logged it a calisthenics rigorous because I know I sure did break a sweat. It only took me 20 minutes to do it all so I pushed myself to do it back to back with no breaks but with good form. So that's how I did it...if that helps. I call all those squats rigorous!

    Obviously log the walking as walking :)

    Did a hybrid version somewhere between the beginner and advanced...due to some "lame" issues :) (foot and knee), I have to modify some...can't run at the moment and have to be careful on squats and lunges. Did most of these plus a Turbo Jam workout, plus my physical therapy appt!! I'm tired now..a GOOD tired, but tired!! Great job everyone...it's hard but you're doing it for a great reason...YOU!!

    I noticed some people said they couldn't do their walk because of weather or it being too dark. I just wanted to mention that I do my 'walking' indoors during the winter with a Walk at Home dvd. Just a suggestion. :)

    I did my the beginner workouts this morning and did my 1 mile walk when I got home.

    Done. I finished the beginner version. (Yikes to those doing the Advanced one!)

    I made a few modifications:
    Plank: It was a cumulative 30 seconds. (Took 3 or 4 tries. Stopped the stop watch each time I fell).
    Pushups: I had to use the wall
    Jumping Jacks: can't jump very well. Did the side steps.

    But....I did walk 2 miles instead of 1.

    Well...I did them all (beginners of course) It actually took me all day to finish them all (Yes I know you are supposed to do them all at once). I figured if I could only do a few at a time, it was better than not doing some of them. I only logged as strength training items and not as any cardio, except for my 45 minute walk at lunch which was closer to 2.5 miles.

    I am scared to see what tomorrow will bring...:blushing:
