    Congrats on starting day one of September Tribal Challenge! We already have a mini-challenge for EXTRA points. There is pain involved, let me tell you. Here is the quote from Gary:

    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.

    Also, if you are doing BUSHMAN challenges, you need to start each workout with a Tabata challenge. That's a 4 minute circuit, 20 seconds as hard as you can, 10 second rest. This girl on YouTube has lots of examples of different Tabata workouts.

    RE: Ann's comment: you can choose to do Pygmy or Bushman every day, it's not a month long commitment. I think this is neat because if you look at the advanced one and it looks doable, you can do it without having to do that one every day. We are all stronger than we think! Try it and see.

    Mission Slimpossible: sorry for the confusion with when things start, workouts of the day, etc. We were supposed to start yesterday with Day 1. If you didn't do it, no problem, you can still make it up. Choose the Pygmy or Bushman series for each day, and once you're done that's one point. Keep under your calories and drink your water each day, and that's one point. Do any extra mini-challenge (eg. Bear Crawls this week), and that's one point. Here's the challenges for yesterday and today:

    Thursday:
    Pygmy: Day 1 Exercise Challenge - 30 Squat Kicks* and 50 Jumping Jacks (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSu-wci9uTo )

    Bushman: Day 1 - 50 Squat Kicks, 50 Jumping Jacks , 50 Crunches, 50 Mountain Climbers, 50 Wood Chops and last but not least 50 Globe Jumps!

    Friday:
    Pygmy: Day 2 Exercise Challenge – 2 sets of 15 Swimmer’s Presses + 1 Extra Mile jog, walk or run (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYwzaUXK6gs) * You may use cans of soup, tomato juice or bottles of water if u don’t have weights

    Bushman: Day 2 - 2 sets of 15 Swimmer’s Presses, 2 sets of 21’s, 2 sets of 15 Dumbbell Chest Fly’s, 2 Sets of 15 Lawnmowers, 2 sets of Tricep Kickbacks, 2 sets of 15 Shoulder Shrugs (weighted)

    Sylvi, this is where you post this. I will need everyone's info by Sunday night. This is what I need:

    Daily challenges: we had three. Did you do them each day?
    Weekly challenge: did you stay under calories and drink enough water each day?
    Mini challenge: bear crawls: did you do it?

    Hi, I just came across this group from the Ramadan thread. This group seems to have a lot of motivation and I would love to join. Is it possible to join now? Or is it too late?
