    Sorry I missed the post yesterday. Here is my measurements.

    Goal: 5 inches
    Week 1 measurements
    Waist 38.5
    Hips 51.75
    thighs 57 (doubled)
    chest: 44.25 inches
    arm: 15 inches (each arm measured the same

    So 30 when you add both arms together right? Just want to make sure I add the correct thing into the spreadsheet.

    Good job everyone on your squats! I didn't count how many I did yesterday in my bootcamp stuff. I guess I will say zero and work hard the next 3 days to push out some more!

    Wheelieblade be careful with your back!

    bkrbabe57 I will add you today. Did you double your arm measurement too?

    Goal: 6 inches
    Week 1 measurements
    Thighs: 41 inches (this number was doubled)
    Arm: 20 inches (this number was doubled)
    Waist: 26.75 inches
    Hips: 36 inches
    Chest: 32 inches

    Week 2 Measurements

    Arm: 20 inches
    Waist: 27 inches (up from last week)
    Hips: 25.75 inches (down from last week)

    This wasn't a great week for me. I have been rather lazy and enjoyed my weekend a little too much! I was happy to see that I had gone down .25 in my hips...but the gain in my waist made it so I stayed at the same amount for this week. Good job everyone! As soon as I have all the measurements in for this week I will post the link to the spreadsheeet and see if I can figure out how to post a pic of it.

    Good job ladies! 8 people left to measure and then I can tell everyone who is the winner of the week. Remember that the winner of each week gets to pick our challenge.

    The question of the week though is: What do you do to lose inches?
  • bmfrazie
    bmfrazie Posts: 2,380 Member
    I normally do a lot of cardio and calisthenics. I find that calisthenics work specific target groups and give me the extra toning that I am after. I just finished the 200 squat program (6 weeks) and found that it really made a huge difference in my thighs and hips. I also like these exercises because they are quick and things that I can do at home in my free time.
