New thread for July...you have to move and shake it for 360 minutes a week:bigsmile: ...put down that mouse and get going:noway:

Who's up for this challenge? We go from Monday to Sunday

Walk a dog, borrow a dog....plant a garden...put down those car keys and ride a bike...start a new sport...let's get going

Monday, drank beer and boiled in a hot tub (boiling doesn't count, I'm sure)
Tuesday, worked 12 hour shift

I'm in trouble and gotta step it up....

    Painting counts...that's moving...count it

    If I don't get credit for sweating in the hot tub...you don't get credit for the concert...LOL

    I am in. Since I am doing the 6 week kettlebell challange, this should not be a problem. I have walked 32 minutes on Monday, did Yoga and T-tapp yesterday for a total of 75 mintes but I do not want to count Yoga as exercise. I do it as relaxation. Today, I did 16min jog/walk, 40 minutes Kettlebell workout with a trainer and T-tapp for 30 mintes so that is a total of 76 minutes. I think I can do this....

    Hi Movers,
    I guess I can't subtract!!! I've got 340 minutes of the 360 min/wk challenge left to do - and it's Thursday ( had an incredibly long day yesterday!! didn't finish up until after 10pm and was just done!!) If I break it up that makes and hour and a half everyday thru Sunday) Are you kidding me ???? I have been such a slug for the last month but will give it a shot and hope for better next week.

    I'm still in!
