    I knew that one would need clarification.

    UPS and DOWNS

    http://www.youtube.com/user/sixpackshortcuts?v=bkD9LwDBWW0&feature=pyv&ad=7237549087&kw=exercise

    The very first part of this exercise is the up and downs. They may be modified by simply starting on all 4's and then standing up quickly and returning to this position to all 4's. This is a cardio exercise! Don't be freaked out but all he is doing just do the first part and modify if needed.

    THat's like the 4th variation I've seen on "Up/Downs" In football practice it used to be going all the way down and then pushing up/hopping up at the end. This way looks a bit easier which is fine with me! :p

    When are we to report to you what we have done? Should we do it on this forum or message them to you?

    For me its easier if you all email me through MFP. Its easier for me to track. Each day let me know if you hit the goals. I'll track them and away we'll go! Oh Yeah....I'm headed to facebook now. Sorry I forgot! Doh!

    If you haven't sent me your current weight please do so. We are working on a honor system so if you didn't do something don't let the results of letting the team down force you into lying. Its not worth it to yourself. We wont' beat you........... too bad. WMR Teammates please send me your weight via the MFP Email (Message) system. Easier for me to track. Also please email me each day if you did all the challenges. Next sunday we'll do our first weigh in.

    @Gary - where should we send our full body pics? Or is it easier for you to take it from my pics on my profile? If so, it's the black shiny shirt with jeans full length pic.

    It's funny how music inspires me... I put some Pandora on and my "workout" list started playing and I quickly banged out 15 jumping jacks, 30 standing crunches, 15 more jumping jacks, and 35 more crunches! WOOHOOO!!! 50 JJ's more to go for me today!

    My jumping jacks are complete!!! Thank goodness. They were the only challenge I can't stand so I guess it's good to have them the first day when your the most motivated to get going. Good luck everyone today!!!
