Ok, so I was thinking we have a great group here but things need to shake up a little to keep everyone on their toes! Starting Monday let's challenge one another to work out at least 5 days this week. Are you up for it? If you want to do it, just let us know what you do each day. Doesn't have to be extreme, park way out in a perking lot, take the stairs, do what you can but challenge yourself!

    A brief walk/run for 30 minutes in the morning and evening is my recommendation...

    I am open to adding whatever someone has to offer to my schedule...

    I've been a bit slack the last week and a half or so, but I am planning to restart P90X on Monday. Will be so much easier when the kids are back in school and I've no distractions!

    I started last week by going to the gym at around 6 every morning to get in a workout before work. This week I am aiming to get there for 5:30am everyday in order to do the classes, which I find better than doing just the elliptical! Let's see how this early morning week turns out! :)

    My gym offered a lot of the Les Mills courses, so I take those every morning, and twice a week I'll do zumba at night because I just love it so much!
  • It's move in and college starting season so I won't hop on this bandwagon, but I wish everyone the best of luck!

    Great idea! I am committing my self to 60 minutes a day for 5 days. Thanks for the challenge! I usually do a Lesley video or walk the dog around the neighborhood 30 or 40 minutes but don't always get there.

    I'm in! This will help me keep working out this week! I teach, and it is the first week back with students, so I tend to slack off with working out this particular week. It will either be Zumba or walking.

    I'm in. I have a pact for 4 days / week but can easily bump it.

    I finished C25K Week 1 tonight, so I'll be doing that 3 days / week for sure and am going to start some "you are your own gym" stuff come Monday.
  • Perfect, this is exactly what I need. I have been eating much better but it is so hard for me to exercise. I need to get out more and add more exercise. I am IN!

    I just started school again, so I'm not working out on Tuesday and Thursday. However, I made up for it by doing double bike rides on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I already made this challenge to myself to not slack off once I started school. First week is done and fifteen to go.

    Game on! I've been good in the exercise challenge arena - already run each morning (excluding Saturdays) and work out with a trainer 3x/week. My challenge within the challenge will be eating breakfast at home. I got off the breakfast wagon last week and reverted to my old habit of a bagel and bacon, so this week I'm getting my breakfast game back on.

    I'm in. Got up at 5:00 am to get my workout in before work, at that time there nothing to disrupt me from getting in done and feeling great for the day. I have been doing Melissa Bender workouts free on you tube. and also Walk/Jogging 2 1/4 miles right after. Thank You for the Challenge some days I don't want to get up so early but always feel better when I do.

    It was rough pushing that PLAY button, but I did it and always feel much better when I do.

    Day 1- Week 1 --- Restarting P90X

    Today was back and shoulders and boy, do I remember I have them right now!

    I'm in. But I have a hard time fitting in workout time till the boys are in bed so I will not be able to always log it till the next morning. I am excited because I just discovered that Jillian Michelle's DVDs (well some of them) are free with amazon prime.

    I'm in - going to be doing workouts using the xbox 360 kinect, which are just as tough, if not tougher, than a gym workout. Just done a 15 minute cardio workout, which I will carry on with 5 days a week. Just waiting for physio for possible shin splints so cant do any running yet.

    Today, so far I have walked 2x around campground, along with misc other walking/hiking. I've been using the restroom on the other side of the campground, even in the rain, instead of the one closer to me. :flowerforyou:
