    I only burned about 75 calories doing day 1 challenge. If you add the daily challenge of 10,000 steps then you could burn about 300 calories. It all depends on your fitness level weight and age.

    Week 1 Day1 Challenge completed! Did wall push-outs for first set, than did knee push-ups...hubby says I didn't go low enough, lol.

    Then my kids tried to plank with me, so holding that 20 seconds while laughing was an extra core work out!

    Day 1 Challenge completed- had to do all knee pushups because I was sore from doing a lot of bicep and tricep weights yesterday.

    I unfortunately did all mine together, once I got to the planks during the first round, I decided I wasn't getting off the floor after that, till all the planks were done.

    I did a normal set of squats, one set of squat jumps, then the last set i did half squat jumps and normal squats. For some reason the squat jumps seemed easier till i got half way through.

    I was not able to do push ups, So I did a modified version.


    Completed all exercises.

    I did the plank and the sit ups during my yoga class and finished up the rest before I left the mat. Day 1 down.

    I totally forgot about doing this and just now tried. I only made it through one rep of each but it's a start and I will do better tomorrow! This shows me (again) just how out of shape I am. I managed over 7,000 steps today - way better than I was doing a week or so again before I got my FitBit. I knew I wouldn't be able to be "up to speed" all at once at the beginning - I just want to see progress as I go forward! :drinker:

    OMG! I am so pitiful! hahahaha, definitely got a good laugh on myself. And it was a good thing I was by myself. Hahaha. I did complete some of the challenge. Squats, yes. Jumping jacks, kinda, toward the end I was raising my arms but my legs were not cooperating. Push-ups, I did half. And my 20 second plank was more like a 5 second plank. I am pleased that I did make an attempt at 1 rep. Looking forward to tomorrows challenge.

    I got 12,202 steps in today. I do walk a lot on my days I work. 12 plus hours, on my feet.

    I did get my 8 plus cups of water down

    And I ate healthy and stayed in my calorie range.

    Today was a good day.

    Well that was interesting! Got my steps in with two walks, one of which wearing my 40lb toddler in her Tula. I managed to finish two reps with the squats lowered to 10 each rep and each one held for 10 seconds. I also went over with water. Oh and my food intake was stellar. Finished the day with 300 net calories (eating a bit over 1.200cals)!!!!

    Done. Got my water in too. I have no idea about the steps though. I'll configure my pedometer eventually. But I did run about 4 miles so I'll just assume I reached 10,000 steps.
