    JAN 2014 - SPANK THE YANK CHALLENGE

    edited February 8 in Fitness and Exercise
    Hey folks :drinker: :drinker:

    We've recently had 2 x UK v USA team challenges and we are currently sitting at 1 win a piece so In the spirit of good exercise and friendly competition I am looking for members to join both Team UK & Team USA for a third time round.

    The challenge involves us collectively exercising over a period of a week - I'm thinking of starting it on the 6th Jan 2014 and to see who logs the biggest burns over the week. It will tie in with peoples " new year new me" ethos and lets be honest we are all miserable as *kitten* in Jan so why not have a friendly challenge where we spank the yanks for a SECOND time......

    Last time as a team of 15 Team UK burned a total of 158,467 calories over a week and TEAM USA burned 129,074 so its pretty impressive numbers. I am the TEAM UK Captain and I'm looking for a TEAM USA Captain, but you can PM me about that and i'll explain what's required.

    Before we have the eager volunteers be warned you'll be expected to exercise daily and most of my team burned over 1000K a day to achieve this amazing number so if your usual exercise is around the 300 a day mark I'd honestly say don't bother because the best intentions in the world will make that difficult to achieve and I dont want people to injury themselves as it is supposed to be fun! :bigsmile: BUT by no means does that exclude you, I just give you warning as to what level of fitness and exercise will be required. :bigsmile: We are a fantastic supportive bunch and had great fun the last time!

    From a personal perspective I gained amazingly supportive friends and burned 19,000 myself that week and lost 6llbs so it worked wonders for my enthusiasm and motivation and I made some excellent friends to boot! :bigsmile:

    Please get in touch if its something you'd like to be involved in.

    And also please note, we had lovely Canadians in team UK last time so by all means we don't exclude geographical locations, you are free to pick a team of your choice ( but ps....TEAM UK has all the hot chicks in it lol :heart: )

    Let me know what you think!! Could be fun!!

    Thanks

    Charlene xx

      Your title is quite effective at getting people to read the thread. I seriously only came in here to see how on earth you had kept this from being locked by the mods. :noway:

      But I am not able to exercise right now, so I can't join. Bump for you anyway.
