Hello Ladies!!! I was wondering if you guys could come up with a good alternative to Jumping Jacks. I'm positive that I have tendonitis going on in my left foot. All of other challenges I think will be ok but JJ's. I don't think jumping on it is a good idea. What do you think?0
-
got one of those ab roller things yesterday, no not the weird fitness ones, just one that will support my neck so I can still do crunches even though I have the neck issues. it also can be turned over and used for push ups or dips so that is exciting too0

Maybe Wacky Jacks? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDr_EVKxEws
Or if that's still too much intensity for your foot you could do windmills: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P70Va8OmL-M0 -

Ooooo I like those Wacky Jacks! I've been wondering what to do for my side abs without doing bicycle crunches. Now those are the devil. I might just replace all my JJ's with those. JJ are from the devil too.0 -
i havent even had a chance to do any workouts this week yet! VERY busy!! Hope to catch up tomorrow!!0

Perhaps you should do some punches (Jillian Michaels style)? She says it's a good cardio workout without using your lower body.0 -

I'll try that too. I did all the other challenges today. The only one that gave me issues were the Split Squats. I did get 45 minutes on the elliptical today. Your foot stays stationary on that so, no issues there. :happy:0 -
Okay everyone, I don't have everyone's results but a majority, so I'll tell you where we are for last week. We currently have 216, which is my opinion is great!
The three people who lost the most weight (in lbs) are:
Naomi with 3.2lbs
Gwynne with 1.6lbs
Cassandre with 1.2 lbs
The three people who lost the most percentage of their weight are:
Naomi with 1.6% (wow!)
Gwynne with 0.8%
Cassandre/Clarissa with 0.6%
Way to go everyone! I hope everyone's having a TRIBAL week so far!0 -
So will we get weekly updates as to which team is in the lead or just at the end of the month? No rush I'm just curious to see how everyone else did because we totally kicked *kitten*!0
-
Yeah Naomi, we only find out at the end of the month. Too many teams for Gary to keep track of I think.0
-
Question about the extra miles. Basically anything over 4.5 is extra right? I'm already at 10 something miles this week and I'm going on a 3+ mile walk tomorrow with my aunt.0
-
Ok Guys I have to first apologize because I did not do teh challenges past Wednesday. I have just been going through a lot this pat week and couldn't fin the motivation to do extra workouts. I did however do all my normal stuff and I am down 2lbs for the week. I am not at home so and I don't have access to the spread sheet for the week.I will update it as soon sa I get home. I did stay under my calories and every day though. I will try and do better with the challenges this week.0

Anything "extra" is anything that isn't in the daily exercise challenges. If it is in your weekly challenge though, it still counts as "extra".0 -
You guys are all amazing! And by keeping track of everything on the spreadsheet, you're making my life a million times easier! As soon as I have everyone's results, I'll post the highlights for you, so you can see how much September has to worry about RAWROTONGA!
On another note, I haven't been receiving any answers from Lorie (wvualum); does anyone know if she is still doing the September Tribal Challenge?0
