    Good Morning Jungle Jewels,

    I'm excited to say I was up at 5:30 am. and decided to push myself! I stretched and then did BUSHMEN SERIES (Advanced) - 50 Squat Kicks, 50 Jumping Jacks , 50 Crunches, 50 Mountain Climbers, 50 Wood Chops and last but not least 50 Globe Jumps! It took me 15 minutes to complete. I have to admit I struggled with the Globe Jumps LOL I had to break them up into 10's with a 30 sec. break between each set but I did it!!!! I feel great!!! :-) Then I have kickboxing later on tonight woo hooo!!! GO JUNGLE JEWELS!!!

    Have a fabulous day everyone!!!!

    Sure thing Jules... oh I have a question, when doing the 50 squat kicks... should we be counting every time we kick or right kick, left kick = 1???? Just wondering :-)

    Sorry - an update from Gary...

    SEPT CHALLENGE FOLKS THAT ARE USING THE BUSHMEN SERIES EXERCISES! I forgot to add that you need to being each day with a tabata 4 minute start. I am using this young woman's series. Its great but you have to stay in time with her. 20 seconds hard core 10 seconds rest for minutes. It will push you hard and will shape and tone large muscle group areas. Make sure everyday starts with a tabata no matter what the challenge is! The video is here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkCnNrxHwFE&feature=youtube_gdata_player http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DfuU3TSsFM&feature=youtube_gdata_player here is another one she does she has several!

    ****** MINI-CHALLENGE ALERT ******

    O.K. Let's start this week off right! Since we are short this week I'm offering a mini-challenge. Remember Gym Class? Do you remember doing the bear walk? As a side mini-challenge you don't have to ever do the mini-challenges. But if you'd like to earn your team an extra point bearwalk for 3 minutes. Seems easy but it has to be a constant bear walk constantly moving for 3 minutes. You might be surprised! If you do the bear walk at the end of the week ask them to add one point to your team score! if you choose not too or cannot perform the mini-challenge its all good! This is just something to get our challenge up and running! So there it is FIRST MINI-CHALLENGE a Constant 3 minute Bearwalk.

    I've decided to go w/ the Pygmy exercises. I've completed 30 squat kicks and 50 jumping jacks for today, along w/ the 3 minute bear walk! (So glad it was just me and my 3 yr old home today when I did the bear walk!) It was quite a site! I've also made sure to drink more than the required 8 glasses of water today! :)

    Hello Jungle Jewels-

    I'm just checking in to see how everyone is doing this first day!

    My days are a bit strange they start in the afternoon and go to the early morning .. so I'll be posting my final days info at the end of my day. Today I woke up and it's soooo hot that I have absolutely no desire to eat! On the plus side my water intake is fab!

    The bear walk addition is very interesting, I shall be attempting it here shortly.

    Everyone have a great evening and rest up for day 2!
