    I plan on taking a walk and doing jumping jacks as they are both part of my March 3rd week challenge :)

    Yeah, I figured your March challenges would overlap. You'll be way ahead when we have a lower body challenge! ;)

    I'm sorry I posted this late - I'm out of town this weekend! You guys are all doing GREAT though. I think I need to make the daily's harder!

    MONDAY CHALLENGE:

    Personal Challenge - DO NOT WEIGH YOURSELF.
    It's NOT your weigh-in day, so STEP AWAY from the scale. Seriously. Put it in the closet if you need to. Don't weigh yourself in the morning, before you eat, after you eat, after you pee, after you poop, before you go to bed... none of it. NO WEIGHING YOURSELF. (I know this isn't much of a challenge for everyone but for some of us... yeah.)

    Saturday - painted our out building
    Sunday - 25 squats 5 push ups (I have shoulder issues so 5 is a personal best)
    Monday - did not and will not weigh today
  • I completed Saturday's challenge 40 reps of 55 pounds on the incline bench
  • Today's Challenge(Monday) will be a struggle for me. Seems like I'm constantly checking my weight. Even up to 5 times a day! But I will do this :)

    I weighed myself this morning for another challenge so I guess I'm like another participant and my challenge is to NOT weigh in again until the end of the week.

    Friday challenge - Complete. I had a personal training session that day.
    Saturday - Complete, did 30 burpees as part of my homework from my personal trainer
    Sunday - Complete, did another 30 burpees as part of my homework.
    Monday - Fail, had to weigh in for another challenge. Will challenge myself to not weigh in again until Friday.

    Yeah, I weight myself a lot too, so this challenge is difficult. :/

    And not weighing myself until Friday like a couple of you? LOL. No way.... I would fail that challenge!

    Monday challenge complete! I did not weigh my self at all! Woo hop! I hid my scale, lol

    Monday's challenge completed :)

    TUESDAY – 50 Burpees. Also, eat your veggies! Seriously, for most of us that’s 2-3 cups. Eat ‘em up, people.

    WEDNESDAY – 5 min. jump rope or jumping jacks (pretend jump rope if you don’t have one), plus 30 ab moves (sit-ups, any time of crunch you can think of, etc.)

    THURSDAY – You can’t weigh yourself today, either. In addition, drink your water! (Now, I don’t buy into the whole 8-glasses-a-day stuff, but I also think most of us fail to drink enough fluids.) Finally, lets do some upper body work. Do at LEAST 50 reps of upper body exercises! (Curls, pushups, flyes, press, pulldowns, etc.)
    EDIT: [Dips and pushups can easily be done at home. You can also use filled jugs for presses, side or front raises, that sort of thing.]

    FRIDAY – 1 minute of planking, 15 minutes of cardio, and 30 squats. Also, WEIGH yourself, and post to the weigh-in board!

    monday challenge complete :-) I packed 2 cups of veggies for lunch! now just have to get to those evil burpees...

    Hey for those of us w/o access to a kettle ball, can you post some alternatives?
  • Posts: 121
    Hmm.... you don't need a kettlebell for burpees.
    Observe:

    Assuming you meant for something else, some kettlebell alternatives:
    A dumbbell (heavy)
    A gallon jug, filled (~8.6 lbs)
    Bag of soil, dog food, etc (double bagged)

    Also, Ross has them for like $20, I think, maybe $15. I also got a set of 5# dumbbells for under $10, which is a GREAT price.
