    Didn't realize after catching up yesterday on day 1-4 of tricep dips and gut & glutes that today would be a rest day! Still had the first Wednesday of the 10 week challenge to complete along with my kettlebell workout. It's really hitting home that I have Mud Hero in just a couple weeks and have to be ready for it whether the kids are on vacation or not.

    How exciting, you'll have a blast. Please share, would love to hear about it! My daughter and I have our color run in a couple weeks too. Super glad it's FOR fun and I don't have to train, :)


    Jackie, YOU ARE SUCH AN INSPIRATION!

    My hubby is surprised that I can plank. He literally got on the floor with me and put his hand under my stomach area to see if belly holding me up, MY BELLY IS NO WHERE NEAR THE FLOOR! I was so shocked but still somewhat sore! My elbows ache...can I use elbow pads?


    1) Congratulations
    2) Wait until he sees what you can do by 7/31
    3) Use whatever you have to use for your success

    You go girl!

    I've been very busy since the month began so haven't actually started yet. But been walking a lot.
    Since Jan. I've lost overall total of 31 1/8th inches.

    Day 6: tricep dip and guts/glutes challenges completed. might have to rethink the tricep dip challenge as my wrists are extremely sore. had surgery on both wrists so bending them in that way is not ideal. I will see how it progresses.

    Ok going for the beast workout. Hopefully
    Downward dog n sit ups will get easier. The later probably due to god awful form.

    I chose to do the 10 week work out plan! Yesterday was good; I got locked out of my house while doing this outside. But, I was able to finish Monday! Just finished today as well! My thighs are killing me though!

    Day 1 - 10 WWP (Mon) and plank challenge
    Day 2 - 10 WWP (Tues) and plank challenge

    Decided to update every Friday instead of every day.

    Day 3 - 10 WWP and plank challenge
    Day 4 - Only plank challenge
    Day 5 - 10 WWP and plank challenge
    Day 6 - 10 WWP and plank challenge
    Day 7 - 10 WWP and plank challenge
    Day 8 - 10 WWP (won't do plank challenge or any arm exercises; somewhat of a rest day for arms)

    Happy Friday everyone! :smiley:

    This is a dumb question. I am going to do a couple of the challenges starting tomorrow, but how do I calculate the exercise calories? Thanks in advance.

    I use a timer & log my minutes as circuit training; calisthenics; low impact aerobics or stretching/yoga, depending on what you're doing.
