Challenge UK v Canada/ USA - Fitness Burn

Hey folks :bigsmile:

We've recently had 3 x UK v USA team challenges and we are currently sitting at 2:1 victory to the Brits so In the spirit of good exercise and friendly competition I am looking for members to join both Team UK & Team USA/Canada for a fourth time round

The challenge involves us collectively exercising over a period of a week - I'm thinking of starting it next Monday 7th April but that's TBC and to see who logs the biggest burns over the week. Last time as a team of 15 Team UK burned a total of 138, 343 calories over a week and TEAM USA burned 94,920 so its pretty impressive numbers.

Just to give you an idea of what's expected most team members were burning roughly around the 1k mark a day to achieve this amazing number so if your usual exercise is around the 300 a day mark I'd honestly say you might struggle a bit because the best intentions in the world will make that difficult to achieve and I don't want people to injury themselves as it is supposed to be fun! BUT by no means does that exclude you, the more the merrier! 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! :heart:

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

And also please note, we had several members from different countries 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!! And thank you for looking!!!

PM me if its something you'd like to be involved in or have any questions.....

Thanks

    How often do you do these? Give me a month and I might be able to keep up somewhat!

    Also if I'm English but just moved to the US, what side would that make me? lol

    Yes please keep me posted! I'm a runner, at the moment I'm mixing up running and other cardio machines, averaging around 500 cals a day, but I plan on upping my mileage by quite a bit. I love a good challenge, very motivating!

    Have fun for this one, you hard core burners you!

    So wish I could love... that was a good spankin' last time! ;)
    But the double workouts nearly killed me (loved it!) but it takes me away too long from the kids! I'd be more inclined if the challenge fell the week of the 14th or 28th :)
