Are you ready to MOVE-IT??!! 2uge4p4.gif


March is a great time to re-evaluate your fitness and weight loss goals in order to end the year strong.:wink::flowerforyou: This is the perfect time to re-commit or jump start your routine!

What are your fitness goals? Are you still getting in those workouts? Or are you just starting a workout program? Do you need a little more motivation? If so please join us.

We are a group who are committed to doing 180 to 360+ minutes of exercise (minimum 180) or/and burn 2500 to 3500+ (minimum 2500) each week. We count minutes for all types of intentional exercise: aerobics, walking, weight training, strength work, stretching or heavy gardening. You be the judge of whether it's exercise or not.

We're here to support, encourage, and set challenges for ourselves. It's all about intention. If we don't make the 180 to 360+ minutes one week, there's next week to go for it.
The weeks starts every Monday in the month and ends the following Sunday at midnight. Then we start all over again the following Monday for week 2, 3, and 4. (and some months week 5)

Newcomers are always welcome!

If at first you don't succeed, you keep trying...just keep coming back to report progress or non-progress...it doesn't matter...it keeps us accountable and that's how we commit to healthy lifestyles. It is a chance to meet new friends and encourage one another along the way.
You can use the form below OR make up your own. So who's in for Week #1,2,3, or 4 sometimes 5??

    To join you just copy and paste the chart above like the one I have below, with your goal and then post when you exercise adding in the time you exercised or calories you burned like I did for today (Monday). You can post each time you exercise or fill in the chart a few times each week. After the first week you post that weeks exercise achieved at the bottom and then empty and change entries for the days of the week and goal for the new week. Be sure to favorite the thread so you can find it again (click on the star above).
