ANJU WARRIORS (Closed Group)

I am excited about this challenge. I have been doing MFP for 40 days and love it! I am the mother of 2 active boys. I want to get healthy for them and myself. I currently weigh 199 and want to be around 150. I'm up for the challenge. Currently, I walk, do TurboFire, play tennis and swim. I like to keep things fun and exciting so here I am! Sarah Emily

Hi Sarah Emily A beautiful name by the way! Were glad your here and up for the challenge. How are you liking Turbo Fire? I love Chalene Johnson.... she is so motivating and full of energy. a real spit fire!! Have you done Chalean Extreme? I'm planning on doing CE over the holiday months. I did the 1st Phase a while back and never finished the program.

FYI on the challenges..... from last wk.

What's up with the 1000 person September Challenge Fri 08/19/11 08:17 AM


Well I'm glad you asked! Here is a break down that I hope will provide a better picture of what we do in the team challenge that currently has over 600 people enrolled! Hey can that many people really be wrong?

The challenge is based upon two factors. A daily challenge and a weekly team challenge. Each team member completes the exercise(s) for that day they send a quick msg to their team captain stating I did the challenge(s) for today. We have 6 a week with one day of rest. Challenges always have a modification or an alternative for folks with bad knees, arms etc....Each week I design the exercises to increase in intensity. (e.g. Week 1 day 1 walk 1 mile, and do 50 jumping jacks, Week 4 day 1, 2 sets of globe jumps, walk 2 extra miles, 2 sets of 21's) I attempt to build cardio and strength within the same week so that we are building both parts of our systems. The strength training uses our body weight as well as physical weights. This can be used with bottles of water, cans of Tomato Juice or cans of soup. So nothing is required to purchase in advance.

Weekly team challenges revolve around a specific goal. This week, week 3 I challenged the teams as a whole to complete 4000 ab crunches. Currently there are 20 to a team. So this is 200 crunches over 6 days. Very doable. If everyone on the team completes this challenge and they meet the 4000 crunches then the team earns an additional bonus points.

Each team member get points for the daily and the weekly challenge. Bonus points are awarded if the whole team combined does each activity for the week. We also award points for % of weight loss. 2.8% as a team would equal 3 points for that team.

We have a theme for each week that is our motivating force. This week is UNLEASH THE BEAST WITHIN! I believe that inside of each person in a better version of themselves. Its screaming clawing trying to get out, but the outside us will not allow that. I challenged each person to unleash the beast within themselves and to push their bodies. I'm of the firm belief that YOU ARE MUCH STRONGER THAN YOUR BODY WILL ALLOW YOU TO BELIEVE!

I hope this answers all questions!

See you in September, WHEN WE GO TRIBAL!

Gary has our information I checked both of our external emails... nothing new, yet.

This was from the news feed Gary posted....

"See ya all later tonight! Watch for the new updates on the week 1 challenges! Remember I need to know you have a team. Some of you still have created teams but haven't alerted me yet. Please do so! have a great night!

For our team to be successful - All members should post on a regular basis, ~everyday~ would be helpful to show your commitment to yourself and our team. I do understand it might not be possible somedays.

For our team to be successful - Full participation for all challenges is a must, just a reminder please stay at your fitness level no injuries please!!!

For our team to be successful - Everyone must drink at least 64 oz of water daily and stay with-in their calorie limit, with in reason. In my opinion.. 1200 cals does not work and is not enough for your body to function, properly.

For example 80 oz a day works for me and I'm not going over 250- 300 of my Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) calories.

Please bare with me I am new at this! Any ideas... thoughts or what ever you may like to add please feel free, we are in this together. If you see me slacking... just give me a kick. I'm going to do the same to you: smile:

I'm looking to see stronger, more confident, leaner warriors at the end of the 30 days.

WE ARE..... ANJU WARRIORS!! WE ARE..... ANJU WARRIORS!! WE ARE..... ANJU WARRIORS!!
