    Ok Awesome! Glad to be here.
    And I have no idea what Globo Gym is..... I'll be googling it later tonight.

    Welcome, and Global Gym is from the movie Dodge Ball with Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn. It's a pretty funny movie.

    Hey All,

    In case any one ever wants to chat. I created a chat room for our team.

    http://tinychat.com/myfitnesspal-globalgym

    It could help pass the time while at work, or when you need a little extra push. I will try to stay logged in throughout the day.

    Just change the nickname on the link to your screen name on MFP so we know who is who.

    Thanks!

    I just found this on Gary's team thread. Looks good!

    AUGUST CHALLENGE WEEK 1

    This is the week one team challenge. This should be done in addition to your normal workout routine.
    This is a challenge and is not a replacement! If you need a beginner workout please contact your team
    captain for ideas.

    Week One Daily Exercise Challenge
    Each team member that completes their daily exercise challenge receives one point, if all team
    members complete each daily exercise for all 6 days the team is then awarded an additional 5 Bonus
    Points.

    Day 1 Exercise Challenge - 100 Jumping Jacks*
    Day 2 Exercise Challenge – Walk, Run or Jog 1 Mile (extra)
    Day 3 Exercise Challenge – 50 Situps or Ab Crunches*
    Day 4 Exercise Challenge – 40 UP and Downs *
    Day 5 Exercise Challenge – 25 Pushups *
    Day 6 Exercise Challenge – 25 Squat Lunges*
    Day 7 Rest! You deserve it!

    If you are uncertain on how to do an exercise get with your captains as they will have a weblink to each
    exercise.

    Week One Weekly Team Challenge

    Each team member in order to get the weekly team bonus points must all log every day and not go over
    their target calories and log at least 64 oz. of water each day. If each team member does this all 6 days
    your team will be awarded 5 Bonus Points.

    *Feel free to do these exercises in sets if you are unable to do them all at one time. Please do your best
    as you are much stronger than you believe.

    Please note each week the exercises will increase in difficulty. This will push each team member.
    Modifications will be provided for those who unable to complete the exercise as intended.

    Any questions you let me know! Lets really win this big. You could win prizes!

    Also this too:

    Mini Challenge!

    Send me at my email gary6039@gmail.com a full body pose of YOU! I will keep these pics and then at the end of the challenge you can send me a full body pose and we will do a before and after competition with a prize for the winner!

    What do you think. All photos will remain private until you provide me permission to release them!




    I'm confused as to if this if just for his team or for all the teams. I don't know.
