Congrats to all who finished the challenge!!! I bet as we move on you are seeing the results. Unfortunately, I did not finish this week.
Turkey day is next week! Work it off this week...0 -
Wow, it's great seeing everyone that finished the challenge. Unfortunately I fell short of 40mins last week, but I'm here to make it again this week. Hopefully will do better and make it.
Mollie & Kim I know you guys are right and I really should get a HRM but they just seem sooo expensive and I can't justify it right now. Maybe when I find a job & have extra cash.
My workout today was all outside, 60mins blowing / raking leaves, 10 mins stacking wood, 20 mins breaking down the vegie garden. total for today was 90mins.
90 done 250 left0 -

Maybe call the doc and ask for a 'script for prednisone which will reduce the inflammation in the lungs...it works quickly, you've been sick too long0 -
Good morning everyone! Just checking in:
Monday: 30 minutes of Kettleworx, 30 minutes of stretching, 30 minutes of walking in place...................270 minutes to go!
Tuesday: 60 minutes of Plyometrics from the P90X program...........................................................................210 minutes to go!
Great job everyone who was able to knock out last weeks challenge and good luck with this week!
I must admit I really have not felt like exercising so far this week and have had to really push myself. I'm just wondering how others push themselves to workout when they really truly have no desire? I usually talk myself in to doing at least 10-15 minutes and then by the time i'm 10-15 minutes in I've gotten over the hump.0 -

Choco,
Good for you pushing yourself.....:-) I see you are still on your roll this month for doing something every day! Awesome.
Regarding your question, I just tell myself this is what I do. I had the same issue this morning. After missing the whole weekend and Monday, today I had to PUSH myself off my butt because I have to do my 5 days a week at least. Usually after that 1st day I am good to go.
Like you once I start I am good, it is just starting. Especially at the gym, once I am in the door I am going to just do it and ususally have a wonderful workout. I usually I feel inspired just by watching and seeing others in there working out too. This is why I would never be one to just always workout at home. For me being around others gets me motivated to do more.
Just keep pushing forward and be glad and thankful that you can and have the engery to do so!
I finally did something today and I know tomorrow I am going to the gym since I have a late day at work! I burned 420 calories today and I have 2,080 calories to go! I did a Leslie Sasone DVD.
Good job Everyone and keep on wiggling and jiggling this week! Tomorrow is hump day!0 -
Monday 90 mins yard work blowing / raking leaves, stacking wood,
Tuesday 60min on treadmill 30 mins w/o dvd
180 done 180 left0 -
Just dropping in for a quick second. I had not completed the Plyometrics dvd in quite awhile and all I can say is WOW. My legs are still spaghetti after these hours. I did not modify a single move (I have bad knees and a bad back so my ability to exercise hard varies day to day) and these legs are sooooooooooo sore. The crazy thing about it is I absolutely love this feeling because I feel like I really gave it my all.0

these legs are sooooooooooo sore.
Your legs look like they are 6 ft long in the picture...good job0 -
Last Week:
Monday- 30 min of Fire 30 & 34 min of Burn Circuit 1/480 calories
Tuesday- 20 min of HIIT 20, 16 min of Extreme Abs, & 20 min of Recharge/410 calories
Wednesday- 45 min of Fire 45 EZ/452 calories
Thursday- 55 min of Fire 55 EZ & 32 min of Burn Circuit 2/610 calories
Friday- 46 min of Burn Intervals & 10 min of Ab Burner/448 calories
Saturday- 45 min of Fire 45, 32 min of Burn Circuit 3, & 10 min of Stretch 10/780 calories
Sunday- Nothing
Total:
395 min/3180 calories
Was planning on working out Friday after I got home from my hair appointment, but locked my keys in my truck when I went to Costco and got stuck there waiting for my hubby to rescue me for almost 2 and 1/2 hrs. Frustrating, but my own stupid fault.
This week:
Monday- 45 min of Fire 45/491 calories
Tuesday- 15 min of HIIT 15 & 30 min of Fat Blaster/445 calories
Total:
90 min/ 936 calories
As of right now, I feel pretty good and want to go home and workout, but I still have 3 hours or more left of work. And it majorly depends on what time I leave, my poor hubby is always waiting on me to get home to have dinner and our nightly stuff... so if its too late then I'm just gonna go home and eat dinner and not get my workout in, cuz I have to go to bed so early since I get up at 4:00am everyday.
Hope everyone's having a good day today and that you're all able to accomplish what you want for today.0 -

Not bad since I only stand 5'4. I've learned how to elongate the body....... guess i've been watching too much America's Next Top Model. LOL0 -
Hello!
I feels great today! I just finished 4 miles with Leslie Sasone DVD and I have not did 4 miles with her in at least 2 years. I started out with goal to do 3 to 3.5 miles and burn over 700 calories because I wanted the same burn I get @ the gym. I like to burn at least 500 calories with each workout. I have not been in the gym mode this week. I still have 2 more days to try to get to gym but if I don't I am going to do something. I burned 1115 calories with 65 DVD and 25 min walk! With yesterdays 420 cal burned, I have 965 calories left to get to 2500 min!
You all and watching The Biggest Loser always helps me push myself! Have a wonderful day everyone!:flowerforyou:
Choco,
I feel you on liking the feeling of having a good workout....:-) I call it a good soreness! Keep up the good work!
