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:
Here are 7 different challenges. You pick your day to do each of them and post which day you do what. OR if you are feeling up for it you can try to create a mini circut out of these exercises. Totally up to you and your ability level.

-- 40 mountain climbers
-- 100 jumping jacks
-- 3 mins of SUPERMAN (you can break this up to your liking)
-- 1.5 mile walk/run/jog
-- 35 squats
-- 20 push ups
-- 50 calf raises

DIETARY CHALLENGE:
Eat breakfast daily! --- Sounds super easy but many people skip this meal and ended up over snacking later because of it.

    Sounds good, I can do everything but the jumping jacks and maybe the mountain climbers. I will see if I can change them up in a way they wont hurt my foot.

    It is easy to be pleasant when life flows by like a song, but the man worth while is the one who will smile when everything goes dead wrong. For the test of the heart is trouble, and it always comes with years, and the smile that is worth the praises of earth is the smile that shines through the tears.

    I found a good exchange for the mountain climber I can't do because of my fractured foot, standing crunches. They're almost the same thing except standing up so there's less pressure on my toes. Now if I could just find a good exchange for the jumping jacks:ohwell:
