    June 2nd - 7th Weekly Challenge

    Posts: 2,012 Member
    edited February 23 in Social Groups
    Hi Guys,

    ToeKnee had a great idea to have some challenges here. I am volunteering with this thread for the first one.
    It is pretty simple.

    1. Anytime (starting now) post your goals for Monday June 2nd to Saturday June 7th.
    2. Update this thread as often as you wish. Don't care about the format
    3. Hopefully everyone will reach their goals at the end of the week.

    Next week... someone else can start a thread.

    Welcome!

      I'm going to start today, instead of tomorrow. I have plans on Saturday which may hamper my step count.

      1. 78,000 steps
      2. Stay under 10,500 calorie intake
      3. Go to the gym 3 times.

      I'm in for getting back to weight training.

      Two sessions of light to medium weight lifting to get back on track.

      Minimum of three workout sessions at the gym, at least two doing the 30 minute circuit.

      Stay at prescribed carb levels while keeping calories in the acceptable range per doctors orders.

      Walk on breaks at work on the days I get breaks, M-W-F (try to find time on Tu-Th between calls FOR a walk)

      Took back ONE break today for a short walk. First trip to the gym, treadmill only today, but big increase in my endurance, only the last two minutes below 3.1 mph for cool down. Max speed was 3.7, average speed 3.3, incline of 3.5 for 20 of the 42 minutes walked.

      With one meal left, I still have 50% of my allowed carbs remaining and can have up to a 400 calorie dinner to hit set medical goals.

      Just checked back with the app for the first time in awhile. I had switched to another one because this one wasn't too active. Glad to see people trying to jumpstart this. I see I am late this week but if the challenges keep up I'll start doing them too.

      Things are getting really busy at work so I will have to unfortunately leave the group. Good luck all!
