Hi Joan and others, I hope you don't mind me asking what some of these exercises are. Looking forward to learning something new. Thanks,
Kathrine from Kansas0 -

Thanks for the links….they are very good.0 -
umm I can't do push ups, maybe one. I will try but no guarantees. :ohwell:0
-
I will do them tonite, after my Pilates session... can't promise the push ups though:s0
-
Will do it tonight after work! The push ups & plank are not going to be pretty though :laugh:0
-
This looks good. Just one question: does repeat 3 times mean...4 times total?0
-
For those who cant do regular push ups try wall push ups and work your way up to floor push ups. For jumping jacks there's a modified version of those also. Same goes for plank if 20 seconds will be to much modify it do what you can and work your way up.0
-
No I should have worded it differently, do all 4 exercises 3 times.0
-
just got 'er done....eager beaver here did it 4 times before I got the clarification of only 3 times...oh well
According to my HRM...i burned 235 calories and got it done in 12.20..
thanks again for pulling this together Joan!0 -
Just completed workout for the day, I struggled with the push ups so I ended up doing the modified version (wall push ups).
I hope you all have a great workout, and please let me know how it went.0 -

I think these are the first pushups I've done in at least 5 years. 3 sets of 15 was right around my limit but managed to get them done.0 -

mission complete!0

Completed! I did two sets of wall push ups and one set of knee push ups. The plank was the hardest for me but I still did 20 seconds. My HRM says it took me 8 min 30 seconds, 62 calories burned. I might do more sets later or some cardio! I make myself do 20 min of working out in order to get a sticker on my calendar
Happy work out everyone!0 -
Today, I did not do the W1D1 challenge. However, I have done two hours of gardening: first outing of the year - the grass was about 6" tall and now is not! The vegetable garden has been dug over, as have the flower beds. It took me two hours.
Then, I joined my daughter and grandchildren on an outing to the park. We walked there and split the children between us, alternating between a 7-year old and a little tinker aged 20 months. We were out for three hours and I am absolutely bush-wacked.
Can I go to bed yet?!0 -
I'll have to do all three sets when I get home tonight! Thanks for posting in advance tomorrow and Wednesday's exercises! I just wish the group messages would feed to our home page feed so we don't have to keep checking back!0
-
Done! I did one set during each commercial break while watching a TV show. It was perfect since each set took about 2 minutes. I had to switch to knee pushups halfway through the second set, but I finished.0
-
Check! I did one set with about 5-7 minutes of walking just to get things going. Did that three different times during the day. Gets that blood pumping after sitting at a desk all day.0
-
Day one challenge COMPLETE!!0

will do it tonight once the kids are in bed0
-
DONE!!! Woohoo!!!! I'm pumped!

Done, and sad to say did the wall pushups. When my lower back/hip stops hurting will try the knee.
I also did 2 hours at the gym, also talked a lot to my friend. Did treadmill and 8 different weights so really good workout day.
Great job everyone!0 -
