    QUESTION OF THE DAY: What is your favorite type of workout?

    Logging in a little early because I'm on my way out the door for the evening.

    Today was a 5/5

    logged all
    drank all
    walked for 80 minutes
    under calories
    watching my son's soccer game tonight (it will be a bonus if they win!)

    Answer to the question of the day: Walking is still my favorite workout. Now that the weather is getting nice I'll ride my bike a lot as that's a close second. I enjoy almost anything outdoors and active but I can walk forever!

    Wednesday 5/5

    I think my favorite WO is strength training. I feel so pumped afterwards and my posture is great. Although I count horseback riding in my cardio for MFP, it's not really a WO cause it's just something I've always done, if that makes any sense. I guess I think of a WO as something special you do for fitness sake, not just something you do for fun.

    Good question, Shua - really provoked some thought on my part!!

    Hope you're feeling better - and your son's soccer team kicks butt!!!

    5/5 Wed

    Goal 1 - Log all food-done
    Goal 2 - drink at least 8 cups of water-done 16
    Goal 3 - work out for 30 minutes per day- done 70 min
    Goal 4 - stay under your calories-done
    Goal 5 - do something for yourself-watched Idol

    My favorite exercise is biking. We live in a bluff in MN so it's a great workout...I used to think I couldn't do it (make it up the bluff) but last fall my hubby showed me how to use the gears correctly. At first I thought I was gonna die coming home, but I made it and it's given me such confidence. Last month I did Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30, when I thought I couldn't do it I just kept pushing and I completed it in 30 days. So proud of myself :bigsmile: (now I continue doing 3x/wk...it's such a great workout). My 2nd favorite is hiking. We have a trail that you can follow by our house and once on top you walk across the medow and see the Mississippi River and then a city past that and it's all so beautiful and I kinda feel on top of the world :love:
    Thanks for the great question, sorry i was so winded about it :flowerforyou:

    I'm out too darn it! I was over my calories by 150 and I fell asleep on the couch last night instead of going to the gym.

    Good luck everyone! See you next week!

    Yes, I post a new challenge every Sunday for the following week. I will put a link to that post in this thread once it's up so you can just come back here Sunday evening to find it.

    5/5 Thur

    Goal 1 - Log all food-done
    Goal 2 - drink at least 8 cups of water-done 21
    Goal 3 - work out for 30 minutes per day- done 45 min
    Goal 4 - stay under your calories-done
    Goal 5 - do something for yourself-watched Idol

    my weaknesses are dark chocolate, coffee crunchy chips. I eat them all in moderation and serving control. I love POPs chips have you guys tried them. Per bag there's 3 servings and each serving of 23 chips is 120cals. I use to love diet coke, but I pretty much gave it up.
