This thread is one in which a new fitness and dietary challenge is posted each week. The challenges begin on Monday. Lets keep this rolling!
Here are the challenges/format to post for this week: (ANY one can join in at ANY time!)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
FITNESS CHALLENGE:
I am switching it up a little for this week. I am giving you options for this week instead of one set exercise. Here are 7 different challenges. You pick your day to do each of them and post which day you do what.
-- 30 mins of walking/jogging/running
-- 20 push ups -- These can be modified on your knees or against the wall. They can also be broke into multiple sets throughout the day.
-- 60 jumping jacks
-- 50 sit ups or crunches
-- 1 minute of jump rope (you can do this with an imaginary jump rope
-- 35 squats
-- Stretch for 10 minutes
DIETARY CHALLENGE:
Drink 10 glasses of water a day! (70 for the week) I have been struggling with this lately so I am going back to this for our dietary challenge.
