    As I understand it, "Up and Downs" are the same as "Squat Lunges" which are the same as "Burpees" .... 3 different descriptions for the same excercize.

    Burpees are actually not the same as squat lunges. Squat lunges are: in a standing position, squat, stand, bring your feet to the center, then lunge.

    Burpees are: Squat, place your hands on the ground, jump back into push up position, jump your feet back into a squat, stand, repeat.

    Hope this helps...

    8/1 - Completed exercise and food challenge.
    Drank at least 9 glasses of water today; had to make up for some excess sodium.

    8/2 - Sorry guys, couldn't get the +1 mile; tendonitis has me sitting around. Calories shouldn't be a problem though. :D
    8/3 & 8/4 - Didn't get a chance to post last night; crappy dinner (nutrition wise, both days) but I was under my calories and managed to get the challenges done for both days; always drink 8+ glasses of water so that part wasn't a problem on either day.

    Provided my ankles are recuperated enough by the "rest" day, I will do the +1 mile then so at least I've gotten all the challenge exercises in during the week. And the healing is going along nicely, improvements every day! I'm gonna take a naproxen and go to bed.

    8/1 - Completed exercise (on 8/4), and water challenge (water only, not food challenge)
    8/2 - Completed exercise (on 8/4), food and water challenges
    8/3 - I didn't do the exercise, but i did the stairmaster for 75 min....DOES THIS COUNT???), completed food and water challenges
    8/4 - Completed exercise (on 8/4), food and water challenges

    So i ended up doing other exercises along with the up down's in the asian guy's you tube video...that's a good warm up!!!
    I also did the 100 jumping jacks today and the push ups (50 push ups, and 50 sit ups).

    So glad to have this challenge!
    I actually opened up and assmbled my push up bars/stands so I can do them at home! They have been sitting in the box ever since I bought them a year and a half ago! This cheallenge is really motivating me to drink and exercise :)

    Just an update for you guys:

    Because of all the craziness and changes going on with the teams, Gary has stated that every team will get points for everyone this week. This is no reason to slack though because we're awesome and can handle it!!

    Also, instead of points for lbs lost, youre now getting points for % of weight lost. Dont worry about calculating it, Ill take care of it.

    Thats it for now! Hopefully ill be getting next weeks challenges in soon.

    You guys are killing it this week, I hope youre proud of yourselves :-). Thank you SO much for being so great at posting your progress here, it really does make my life easier.

    We would have, but Gary pretty much gave every team immunity this week because of all the changes. Everyone gets points and every team gets the extra 5 this week. I encourage you guys to keep doing the challenges though, not only will it assist with your weight loss points, but it will help prepare you for whatever comes next. He did say they will get more challenging.
