Our score for last week was 181. Remember, the daily exercise challenges have the greatest impact on our score and we only have an 80% completion last week.
OK TEAM! We have added a few new members, Fessecakes, Sumo813, Amy_36, and OneFitDiva, which is great. We have also lost quite a few members so we are now at 18 participants. So to complete the 4000 crunches challenge, we each need to do at least 223 crunches this week.
AlwaysAngel, I am counting any type of crunch. I did a combination of traditional, lower, and oblique crunches. In my opinion, the point is to challenge ourselves not to be legalistic.
SCC88, I can't because I believe they are the same thing.
Keep up the good work!0 -
223! Ima gonna die!!!!!0

ADDITIONAL WEEKLY CHALLENGE! For every teammate that will commit to 1000 crunches this week I will award 10 extra points per person to that team! This could be a big point spread folks. Thanks SuzMac1981 for keeping us challenged you are the best!0

Oh yea... check for everything yesterday too. ;o)0

Either way, I don't mind. I just want to lose another pant size or 2 by my birthday. a little less than 4 weeks away. Is that too ambitious??
I say shoot for 1 (which is probably do-able) and that way if you don't end up with 2 you won't be disappointed. That is the biggest thing I've learned during this time around at losing weight. I kept setting goals like "if I can lose X lbs by this date", "if I can just be down to a size X by the party" and I wouldn't make it, and I'd be sad.
Now I just stick with consistency, if I lose weight more so than not, I'm going to eventually be fine :happy:0 -
I just completed an additional mile, did the 3x sets of 21's and the military presses.
I was aiming to do 1400+ crunches this week anyways so WOOHOO! I've done 300 so far, gona get another 100 in before dinner :-)0 -
I have the mile, military presses and 21's in. (My arm and shoulder are killing me!) I even managed to do 25 situps and will try to do 25 later.....arg....have I mentioned I detest situps?0

Okay so day 1 I was really sick so I did not complete the challenge....
However, I did complete day 1 and day 2 challenges yesterday so if that counts than I am good so far for the week...
I forgot about situps so I definitely need to get started on those, but no doubt about it, I will get my 200 in!!!
And I am all ready for day 3!!0 -
