    Even our nature counterparts are staying active:

    "This is how dolphins play ‘catch'!
    July 2010. For anyone who ever wondered what dolphins get up to when they're bored, the crew of a dolphin watching and swimming boat in South Australia, Temptation Sailing, can now provide the answer.

    A pod of dolphins was witnessed from the company's 58 foot catamaran off the coast at Glenelg harassing puffer fish until they puffed themselves up and floated to the surface.

    The dolphins then tossed the puffer fish to each other, similar to a game of catch! In this instance, there were around seven puffer fish and four dolphins involved in the game. www.dolphinboat.com.au"

    I looked at the chart and my Sunday reps are wrong. Should be 550. That was my bad. Poor math skills on my part. :bigsmile:

    Team Dolphin,

    I owe you all a huge apology. I was not able to complete everything this week as I have been traveling out of the country for work. There have been many reasons:
    14 hours of travel
    Work hours - early and late
    Dinners with co-workers
    Gym opens tool late and closes too early

    Sorry for all the excuses. It's been a tiring week - I'm ready to head home tomorrow!

    Here is what I've done if it helps at all:

    Sunday:
    Workout: 92 mins, 1,067 cals

    Tuesday:
    Reps: 90 crunches, 75 jumping jacks, 3 planks, 45 pushups and 75 side leg raises

    Thursday:
    Reps: 90 crunches, 75 jumping jacks, 3 planks, 45 pushups and 75 side leg raises

    Even though I will be booted to the side, I will still participate because I know that Sheri often allows people who are out to contribute to the team. So I will continue to do the challenges and contribut where I can.

    Again, so sorry to let the team down. It's time to go to bed now.

    Its funny how the team with the least number of members has been posting better numbers this week than the team with the MOST members. Don't worry little dolphins - you can leave the difficult work to the animals who can handle it!


    Woohoo!!! GO GECKOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Kashton, I think you get 10 points for your exercise both days. If I understood it right, you get 5 points for each half hour, with a max of 10 points per session.
