August is the dog days of summer. Swimsuits, shorts and tank tops, ooooo my. In 30 days, you can flash your hot, new body that's firm and toned up. Let's lift that booty, tone those arms and whittle the tummy.
1) WE ARE NOT going to be mushy :noway:
2) Our thighs WILL NOT rub together when we walk :grumble:
3) WE WILL make our goals this week :drinker:
4) Things WILL NOT jiggle unless we are dancing and we want them to :smokin:
The goals are:
1) 360 minutes of moving...it doesn't matter what kind you do or how you break it up...I don't care what kind of exercise you do as long as your moving this week. Point is to keep moving and doing something
Shake and Jiggle it! Wiggle or Bump it! Thump and Stomp it! Womp it!! Kick it!! Flick it!!!
- or -
2) Burn 2500 to 3500 calories with a heart rate monitor
OK, who's in for Week #1, if at first you don't succeed, you keep trying...just keep coming back and reporting progress or non-progess...it doesn't matter...it keeps us accountable and that's how we commit to healthy lifestyles
