    Send Aloxander a message - she wants some teammates! I don't know if she is going to be a leader but I believe she wants people she "knows" on her team!

    bumpin' this for later. been sick all week but hopefully I'll be able to report some of the challenges done by tonight. I'll DEFINITELY have all of them done by the end of the week, fo shizzle.

    I'm a late comer, I hope that's ok. Gary graciously let me on his team after I was removed from my other team inadvertently. I promise I won't let you down!

    Ok so here is the deal ... I used yesterday as my rest day!!!! because work and school were crazy and I had absolutely no time to fit in my workout.... but as we have said life happens and today is my mother-in-law's b-day .... and I have no idea what to do...If I go over to her house for cake (of course without eating any) then I won't have any time to work out since then I have to head overtonight school and after that get homework and work done...

    SO... WHAT SHOULD I DO?????????' GO TO THE GYM OR TO MY IN-LAW'S????

    and by te way... can sacrificing too much of your personal life to go to the gym actually be counter productive???? will I start resenting the exercise at some point??? am I obsessing????

    climbers, 10 globe jumps, 10 Squat Kicks, 10 ZigZag Hops! These are a little different. IF YOU ARE ABLE
    AND YOU ARE! Do these consecutively. No stopping to rest, don’t break these into sets! I’ve designed
    this so you can see just how far you’ve come. Many of you would never be able to do all of these in one
    setting on August 1st. BUT YOU’VE Found the inner Beast, You’ve Unleashed you ROCKSTAR and you’ve

    Wednesday - REST BECAUSE THURSDAY ITS GOING TaaaaaRIBALLLLL!!!!!!!!


    Weekly Team Challenge
    4000 team crunches, 4000 Jumping Jacks and 100 extra miles! This equals about 200 per team for
    crunches and jumping jacks for the week along with an extra 5 miles for each team member! The Last
    part of the team weekly challenge is solicit a friend or family member to join MFP and begin the next
    month’s journey with you. Inspire others that’s easy. The retire portion of the week is about looking
    back at the past 30 days. You have had to retire many old habits, many excuses and reasons why not to
    exercise. It’s time to retire those and move forward to the new you! YOU ARE MY INSPIRATIONS! Keep
    it up as we INSPIRE our circle of influence and RETIRE the old ways! Go Inspirations Go!

    If I can do 1000 in a week... which I have NEVER done before - then I can CERTAINLY add it to my daily routine!

    Water done, challenge done, will be within calories. Also did an extra 25 crunches to bring my total to 175 out of 250 for the week. (In addition to the 100 done during today's challenge, that is.)

    Water - over! +1
    Food - logged and was over before I exercised... cheat day today! But then I exercised and I am under calories... didn't do so well on the fat though. +1 anyways!
    Challenge - complete! +1

    50 squat kicks *modified exercise for burpees*
    300 crunches *yeah, that's RIGHT, I brought it tonight!!!
    50 wall push-ups
    50 jumping jacks
    50 leg raises
    3 sets of 12 woodchops w/weights *I am really liking these now and adding it to my routine
    10 minutes of stretching/yoga positioning

    So I've completed my personal crunch challenge of 1000... plus the 100 from today's challenge so I've done 1100 crunches this week! I NEVER in my life thought I would hear (type) myself say that. I can still add 200 more tomorrow, too.

    Good night!
