    I am in....this might be a little hard...I just calculated what I normally do in a week and it is only 335 minutes...I'll have to squeeze in 25 more minutes in somewhere...but I know having to record everything, I will definitely do it!! This sounds like a great thread to be involved it...read through everyone's comments already...you guys are all great motivators!!! Keep up the great work and I can't wait for my workout after work today. I already have 17 minutes in for the day so I'll add what ever I do at the gym today...can't wait to work out extra minutes today!!! :happy:

    Monday: 17 minutes/145 calories doing Zumba

    Welcome new joiners...time to get up and get your groove on:tongue:

    I think we all did pretty well this week. I really liked strapping on the HRM and cleaning like a mad women. Not great intense calorie burn; but, it wasn't too bad. I did squats instead of bending over. I didn't include dishes or folding laundry kind of stuff. I had to be moving briskly the whole time.

    Monday, 0 minutes, working from 3 to 11...I, also, woke up with the kids at 0630, made breakfast, then napped from 0900 to 1130...so, I missed my workout; but, listened to my body, right?

    Thanks Kim! I love it when I have the time to have an awesome workout over the weekend. I feels great and keeps me on track over the weekend. This was the 1st time over a weekend that I was under my 2000 calories! I was so proud of myself. Of course it helped that I did not have any social plans.......:-) You keep up the good work too!

    I've heard good things about the 30 day shred. I see some of you are using it often how do you feel about the workout?

    I've heard good things about the 30 day shred. I see some of you are using it often how do you feel about the workout?

    I have done the shred and the 30 days slimdown (incorporates all 3 videos)...great results...just that the videos get boring after awhile for me...I mean, honestly, the music is just horrible. Like 70s workout music.

    If you are interested in them, I can mail you my copy of the 30 day shred. I think I am pretty much done with it.

    jeanaustin, great workout minutes....your a rock star

    Andrea, what day is the wedding???? Love the avatar, your stunning...

    Alright, 12 hour work day tomorrow...oy vay...when can I retire????

    Monday: 17 minutes/145 calories doing Zumba; 41 minutes running/460 calories
    Tuesday: 17 minutes/145 calories doing Zumba; 31 minutes running/339 carories; 23 minutes Arch trainer/ 261 calories

    Total: 129 minutes/ 1350 calories burned

    I don't have a hear monitor so I just go by what MFP tells me I burned for zumba and I go by what the treadmill (or any cardio machine I use) tells me. MWF are normally my low cardio days because I don't normally have time to do extra cardio, but I will try today so I can reach 360 minutes...we'll see...I do have church tonight, so I will try my hardest!! :happy:
