Are you ready to MOVE-IT??!! 2uge4p4.gif[/b]

January is almost here and we want to be ready to bring in 2014 a little lighter or maybe you just want to maintain your weight! Either way this is the perfect time to re-commit or jump start your routine!

What are your fitness goals? Are you still getting in those workouts? Or are you just starting a workout program? Do you need a little more motivation? If so please join us.

We are a group who are committed to doing 180 to 360+ minutes of exercise each week (minimum 180). We count minutes for all types of intentional exercise: aerobics, walking, weight training, strength work, stretching or heavy gardening. You be the judge of whether it's exercise or not.

We're here to support, encourage, and set challenges for ourselves. It's all about intention. If we don't make the 180 to 360+ minutes one week, there's next week to go for it.

The weeks starts every Monday in the month and ends the following Sunday at midnight. Then we start all over again the following Monday for week 2, 3, and 4. (and some months week 5)

Newcomers are always welcome!

If at first you don't succeed, you keep trying...just keep coming back to report progress or non-progress...it doesn't matter...it keeps us accountable and that's how we commit to healthy lifestyles. It is a chance to meet new friends and encourage one another along the way.

You can use the form below OR make up your own. So who's in for Week # 1,2,3, or 4 sometimes 5??

    Minimum 180 minutes a week? Hmm, that's 3 hours? Or, maybe 30 minutes a day, with one day off. Okay, I'm in. I feel I really benefited from the walking challenge I did in October/ early November. And, while I've kept up some walking since it ended, I'd like the challenge of something more structured. This time, though, I want to add in some strength training, instead of all cardio.

    I'm in! My knees have been hurting from running too much, so I will change it up with bike riding, weight training and racquetball. Sounds motivating, accountable and fun.

    I'll give it a go although I am having knee surgery on the 11th. Ice is on the path now so biking might be a little dicey. This is a good excuse to try other exercises. :happy:

    :flowerforyou: Count me in, I'm ready to do more than walking and will consider this my mission. Still going to walk though it has become a routine! Yes sometimes I grumble about doing it but it is good for both me and my dog Richie
