That's an awsome work out! I wish my calorie burn was that high *L* are you using an HRM or are you going by what's on the screen?
I did day 4 today for 21.37 mins burning 151.3 cals on medium and to get it up to at least 30 minutes (and feeling a bit guilty about yesterday *L*) I created a workout for 20.3 minutes and burned another 148.8 cals.
Keep the updates coming!!0 -
I just use whats on the screen, however I am using the Sports active More and you really need to step up on that one. It takes in to account the intensity of using your arms too. It has a good step section which really burns the calories. I haven't got a HRM...I have enough gadgets

Day 4 completed!
116 calories burned!
I found the guy personal trainer is kinda creepy but I'm getting along much better with the girl personal trainer.
I really like this group and all the encouragement. Keep it the good work!0 -
Feeling the burn ladies. Tomorrow is day 5 (if you started on the first of course) Let's keep on going and break through the first week nice and strong!!! I know we can keep it up!
Next rest day for me will be on Wednesday and I'm still so excited that you all have joined in, especially since I'm a noob here. It's been great motivation!!
Take care!
(pardon all the exclamation points, I get excited *L*)0 -
Oops rest day is supposed to be tomorrow, but I think I'll push it to Wednesday because I have a Zumba class that night.
Hope you're all recovering from the Independence Day festivities!!! I missed being at my family's bbq a lot this year, but I'm sure it was a blast as always.
Day 5 is complete and I am burning from the jump squats...the amount of squats and leg related exercise on this thing is evil *L*
I did the challenge workout and it was 22.34 minutes burning 183.2 cals and to make up the time I did an additional 10.04 minutes burning 79.2 cals.
I'm also hoping to get out for a walk later today, but I don't know about the calories.
Good luck ladies, keep it up!!0 -

Exercise 3 completed! Taking my rest day tomorrow [Tuesday]. I have done some kind of exercise of another for 12 days straight and I need a day off. :ohwell: Hopfully with a day off I'll be fresh as a daisy and ready to get back to it on Wednesday. :flowerforyou:
After I was done with the 30 minute workout I had not yet burned 150 calories and I don't like finishing anything under 150 so I created my own short workout program and did some cardio running and boxing to get myself up and over that number. :happy:

Called into work sick today.. still not feeling well. :sick:
Decided to do some light housework to see if it would make me feel better to get up and moving about. I wore my HRM during it... and burned 340 calories in an hour and 43 minutes of vacuuming, dusting, changing the bed sheets, folding clothes, changing the cat litter, doing the dishes and wiping down the shower.
Was surprised with my effort but now I'm off to take a shower and back to bed. :yawn:
I am using my 2nd rest day this week from Sports Active but will be back into Workout #4 tomorrow! :happy:0 -
Aw hun, hope you feel better after your rest today...well after the house work *L* Take care of yourself!!! We look forward to your updates! xx0

Workout #4 complete! I decided to do it on 'Easy' today and my heart rate stayed up almost the entire time! I burned almost as many calories in 28 minutes that I did the other day with something like 44 minutes. Major cardio day!
I am working a 12-8 shift today so knew the only way to get it in was to do it before work. Glad I pushed myself to complete it! :happy:
How is everybody else doing? :flowerforyou:

Workout #5 complete! Did it right when I got home from work... unfortunately my shower after the workout was not too fun. The water kept going out and turning cold. UGH!!!! :grumble:
Found today pretty easy actually... Was very much geared toward strength and not so much Cardio so made my own custom workout and did it after.
Hope everybody has a great Friday night!!

Workout #6 complete! :happy: Again I think those fast kick up are going to be the death of me.. just can't seem to get a fast enough pace going for it to tell me I am doing it perfect.. it keeps saying too slow. Hopefully practice will make perfect.
As of now I think tomorrow will be a rest day. Per the calendar on the game I am scheduled to complete the Challenge on July 31th so I am right on track. YAY!
Have a good weekend everybody. :flowerforyou:

Today was my day off, great job to those that completed a workout today! :happy:
I have noticed that in the last two weeks the calories burned on my HRM have been much lower than that that is listed on the EA Sports Active itself. However in my first week with the HRM it used to be showing very similar numbers.
Well today is my weigh in day and I went to update my HRM Watch as I do every Sunday with my new weight. Last week I was 230 this week 228. Well when I got into the settings I saw it had me listed as 130!! I have no idea how long it has had me listed in the 100's. I checked with my account with Polar and I had my starting weight correct so it has not been like this the entire time.
I wonder if this error is why I have noticed a decline in calories burned over the last two weeks? I guess I'll only know after working out tomorrow. Glad I saw this though! lol :noway:0
