I figure we could put our heads together and come up with a challenge. One rest day a week... Thinking 2 legs/core days, 2 arms/back days, and 2 20 min hiit session days. Anyone down? This is the number one way to get me to do something. A challenge.

What does hiit stand for...I'm guessing High Intensity something....Interval Training?0

That is correct! From what I've read its the only exercise your body doesn't get used to so no plateaus and just 20 minutes is super effective.0

28 day challenge!!
Monday/Thursday (core & arms)
-warm up 5 minutes
-30 Russian twists (
-10 push-ups
-20 vertical leg crunches
-40 mountain climbers
-10 tricep dips
-40 bicycles
-10 incline push-ups

Could not find back exercises without equipment so if you have an exercise ball go to this link for the back workout.

Wednesday/Saturday (HIIT)
-warm up 5 minutes
- 20 seconds Sprint, 10 seconds recovery. Repeat for 20 minutes.
This can be done on treadmill, elliptical, stationary bike, running outside
or as I will be doing it in my living room, I'm alternating jumping jacks,
high knees, butt kicks, and mountain climbers.
Sunday (rest day)
This is it guys! I'm starting this tomorrow and hope you guys will join me!
Hopefully we can report back daily or weekly to discuss how we feel about it, questions, concerns,
motivation, etc!0 -

Im going to give it my best shot...I am pretty out of shape, so hopefully I can do all of it (recently Ive just been walking). Also, I have Finals this week, and I know it is an excuse...but I may have to scale back the work outs FOR THIS WEEK ONLY! I promise!!!! :blushing:0 -
