Hi everyone!! We are halfway through!! WOOT WOOT! I hope everyone is giving it their all. I've had a few minor setbacks but I know I can do this! This week's challenge is...


Try an exercise class!! Most classes attended WINS!

Reminder: This is a closed group! But we will be having a summer challenge coming up shortly! :)

The fine print:
The group who wins is the group with the most classes attended. For instance if 7 out of 10 people of your team go to a class, you get points for the 7 plus you'll get points per class!

Hop to it! :)

    I love group classes, sadly my current gym does not offer any. I regularly go to aqua fitness tho, and absolutely love it. I can't recommend it enough, especially for people with any sort of joint problems! I do deep water (with a water belt to float) but most Y's or Rec centers have non deep water versions.

    If anyone on team Midwest wants to try it out, I'll let you use one of my classes! Tonight and Wed at 5:30 at the Natatorium in Indianapolis (or I could be talked into noon on Tues or Thurs as well).

    This is the perfect challenge for me this week. There is a church around the corner from my house that offers Zumba on Thursday evenings, but I've been too scared to venture out and try it on my own. But this is just the push to get me there. Thanks!

    Ahh this sucks. I can't join the gym.. no time or money at the moment. I workout at home. I do dvd exercises like the 30day shred.. does that count?

    I was planning to attend Zumba on Thursday....so this fits perfectly! That will be it for me this week though...as I am planning to start TurboFire tomorrow.
    Though....I seem to have lost most of my team anyways....Oh well....I'll still keep up with it!
    Goal this week is 180....that's going to be tough as I seem to have hit a bit of a plateau....but I think TurboFire may help me out! :)

    LOVING TurboFire! It's amazing! I burned over 400 cals in the 30 min workout today. It's super high energy and tons of fun...the time flies by! And I am breaking a serious sweat! lol Chalene (the instructor) is great...not annoying (like some can be) just real and motivating. The music is really good...and the moves are not super complicated. I did the "new to class" option 1 time and then was able to keep up really well on the regular class only my second time doing that routine. I have a new routine to do tomorrow...and it's a bit longer....but I am excited to see what it is.
    She does a lot of kickboxing type moves, which is nice because our gym only has Zumba and spin classes. So this is very different to what I can normally get.
