Okay, so, for anyone wanting a higher level of accountability, here's the challenge--post your March 2013 workout plan here!


That means that if you have lofty designs of doing Insanity followed by Banish Fat Boost Metabolism and then a brisk run....you post it for everyone to see! haha! So, no more Monday Morning Resolutions that are too ambitious and turn instead into couch-jockeying. You have to be realistic and make a plan that you can commit to. What do you say?!?!

WHO IS WILLING TO TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY TO THE EXTREEEEEEEEEEME?!?! :laugh:

    Meeeee!!!! I am doing this! Monday Madness, March Madness! What ever you want to call this! I Wake up at 5 Am in the morning work it out the Firm abs cardio for 30 minutes. Then get kids to ready to school! I Make sure I eat something before , I am out the door. Then I take my son to school. It about 15 minutes to his school and when I Walk back home I try to walk a 45 minutes walk. (If time permitting) This ia a totaly of an hour walk. When I get home, rest a bit, have a snack and drink some water! Then the real party begins! For a whole hour, I go to my basement and work out with Jillian Micheals Banish Metabolism! After I stretch I do 8minute abs. These videos are on my I pod. You can find them in You tube. After I am done. I log in MFP. All this is done before lunch. Then I feel like I am starting my day. As a Stay home mon, dealing with house chourse and everything in between,. Very Active! M-F this is my rotunie. Weekends , I also keep it moving, I like to do Walk away the Pounds with Leslie Sanone sometimes. To get some miles in! I love to walk! Because I know every step counts! =)

    I'm trying to walk for 5 miles on my treadmill 6 days a week. This morning I walked for 3 miles. I would have done more but I had to get my daughter up for school. So after working 10 hours later I'm going to walk the other 2 miles. My goal is to get all 5 miles in the morning. I just started on saturday.

    "Woohoo!" for all the eXtrEme commitments! haha

    I kept my plan today and did BFBM, or in "eXtrEme" terms: "I CRUSHED IT!!!" hahahaha!! (not really, i actually barely survived, but byGod i did it!)

    Will I put this one into future plans? IDK, probably, although I could live without the so-called "core circuit". And finally, in the killer super cardio circuit, when she showed me the "standing mountain climbers", HA!!

    Wow, I've never done kettlebells and had no idea how versatile they are! I'll remember that.

    Nice to see more friends making the accountability commitment. You wrote it, so you can't skip-out on it now, right?! :wink:

    Welcome cartina21!




    Okay guys, I'm starting to get a little concerned about my plan. I felt like such a badass after finishing 30DS and RI30 back-to-back months. I put some tough things on my plan. I'm a little worried about the Blogilates Best Lower Ab Workout, but it is only 10 minutes, so I'll do the best I can. But mainly I'm worried about this coming Monday's FitnessBlender 1000 calorie 84 minute workout!!! Aaaackk!! What was I thinking?!?! And the Cardio boot camp next Friday is looming there too. Next week is going to be a tough week. And, tom is on it's way (sorry, tmi to the boys), and I just want to put this out there to you guys now, while I'm still thinking clearly, so you'll know to kick my butt if you start to hear excuses developing from me. I mean it, get rough with me, okay?!?!

    How's everyone else feeling about their plan?

    I have no problem getting rough little missy! :laugh: *puts on best drill seargent face* :angry:

    I'm feeling pretty good about my plan. My main goal is to stick to the three days of lifting per week. The other days are variable. I want to stick with the lifting for 12 weeks, which is what it calls for to see the best results. I will say that my husband and I were both wimpering with every set of steps we had to take after our squats on Monday! We still got in there and did our next set on Wednesday and I'm really proud he's sticking with it with me!
