I love this idea. Use this picture as a guide (copy or print so you will have it). Each week (Monday) I will give you a word and you will take the letter of each word and do that exercise in reps of 3 or 3 times a day.

For next weeks challenge that will start on Monday 6/6/2016:

Your word will be your EXERCISE

    Just so I'm clear, do we have to complete 3 sets of each exercise just once for the week or once every day?

    Originally I was thinking doing the whole word 3 times a day for a week but that seems to be a lot. I tried it and I had a hard time getting the whole word one time. I will change the reps each week as well the word(s). Being the first time doing this, feedback is welcome. I don't want to discourage anyone from doing this because it was too hard.

    Ok everyone, still using the word EXERCISE. Let's do it this one time a day, 4 days a week. Report back each week on how the workout was. I'm excited.

    I am in....I hate burpees though...so glad they are not in the line up this week. Have been doing Hard corp by beachbody... have done way too many burpees over the last 8 weeks. Good thing is that I lost 12 pounds...but they were hard earned.

    Good morning Party people. have a good week. Can't wait to hear how it's going. I can say the burpees are good going to be a challenge. YouTube has a video for beginners for burpees. I'll post it for you as soon as I can.

    I am in! I did a burpee challenge earlier in the spring..30 in a row might be a push.. might do 2 sets of 15 with like 20-30 sec breather between. Is that ok?

    That is perfectly fine. Stretch it out throughout the day if you need to. That is my plan. Doesn't have to be done all at once. I don't want to discourage anyone from not doing it.

    Ok so I did one day yesterday and those burpees are brutal. I am not ready for the advance version yet, so I took that videos advice and did the beginners and hope to upgrade to the advanced once I get the strength. One day down and two more to go. Whew.. I should have started out with a smaller word. the first week.. lol Hope you are having a great week my lovelies!!

    Did my second day today. I did the burpees without the pushup. I guess intermediate level. Excuse me while I guzzle this gallon of water... ;)
