    Great job!! It is only saturday morning and you have done it already. You can win the challenge this week but i will give you tough time:) Weekend challenge accepted!

    Did you do 50 push ups full or easy ones? I can only do 10 full push ups on a good day:(

    I did 50 full ones (on hands and toes) but I didn't do them all in one go, they were in sets of 10.

    Keep pushing me, a tough time is needed!

    Great total cals burnt! You worked hard this weekend.

    I also take calories burnt over the weekend as a bonus. Otherwise I would be spending relaxing/lazy weekends. With the weekend challenges since the start of year my weekend calories burn is more productive than the rest of the week sometimes.

    Thanks for the challenge. I slacked over the weekend workout-wise, but I would really like to perfect the burpee. You've inspired me to look up some how-to videos on form. Thanks!

    Was really busy this weekend but I managed to squeeze in a workout and burned 400 calories. I'm also travelling next weekend so don't know if I'll make the challenge but will try to find time to squeeze in a workout then too.
