    What about doing the Hundred Workout Challenge? It's easy and can be done from home with no equipment - will incorporate a lil strength/circuit training into everyone's week??

    100 jumping jacks
    90 crunches
    80 squats
    70 scissor kicks
    60 fire hydrants (30 per leg)
    50 mountain climbers
    40 lunges (20 per leg)
    30 push-ups
    20 BURPEES, OH YES THAT'S RIGHT!
    Run/walk/bike/jog in place/skip/whatever for 10 minutes

    :) quick and easy!

    I think we should aim for 5 x this week.

    Hehehe, you can all do it! Here are explanations/video directions for most of the exercises, minus the super basic ones:

    100 jumping jacks

    90 crunches

    80 squats

    70 scissor kicks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWKTmFv76I8 (this video actually shows what I would call "flutter kicks", scissors kicks would just go horizontally back and forth instead of vertically up and down. Think scissors opening and closing).

    60 fire hydrants (30 per leg): http://www.ehow.com/video_2359394_fire-hydrant-butt-exercises.html

    50 mountain climbers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHjdc2QVRUQ

    40 lunges (20 per leg)

    30 push-ups

    20 BURPEES, OH YES THAT'S RIGHT! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQes0-tyNa4&feature=related

    Run/walk/bike/jog in place/skip/whatever for 10 minutes

    Any more move related questions, just ask! :)

    Sounds great! I'm going to have to substitute a few of those to accommodate my foot, but I will definitely substitute them, not cut them out! Good luck everyone! Stay motivated! :)

    Okay guys, here's the results for last week's challenge..
    Let me just start off by saying you all did amazing!! If we can keep up this camaraderie then I don't see why any of us will fail.

    Stats!
    Both teams burned a total of 29,228 calories!!! That is so amazing!!
    And for the weekly averages...
    Team Skinny : 377 cals
    Team Dipper : 381 cals!

    That means Team Dipper is the winner!!

    You all did so amazing, and try and keep the same motivation to do this week's challenge. Remember, just because you're not doing it for a team, you're doing it for yourself, and that's why you came on this site in the first place. Don't let yourself slip (like I have...)!

    Done the Hundred Workout for today. Wowee! I didn't have it printed out so I just did it from memory, might have mixed a few things up, but still did it, then marched/jogged in place for 12 minutes whilst watching The Sing Off and singing along. Yeah, that's right! :)

    Sorry I've been a little detached this week, FINALLY got my new laptop so now I can stay on top of everything going on in our group! I just read the new challenge, so I will be doing it tonight (as well as the rest of the week). Will be checking back in later, hope everyone is having a good day :laugh:

    Just finished my 100 challenge for the day. Maybe by the end of the week I won't feel like I am dying when I finish it. :P

    Whew! Just did it after doing 30 day shred...I didn't realize this would take almost as long! Oh well - first workout in about a week so I really needed it!

    Wow I haven't posted in a while! Oops. :/
    Well, update on me, I'm feeling a lot less depressed and am jumping right back on track. Healthy eating and as much exercise as I can. I'm also starting weights in hopes of toning and jacking up my metabolism. Gonna try my best to get these last 15 lbs off before my bday! It's only 7 weeks so it's kind of a stretch, but if I could get within 5 lbs I would be STOKED.

    How's everyone else?

    Lori - look at that new pic! You're teeny!!

    That's awesome! :)


    Not gonna lie, this challenge is killing my butt and thighs!
    (ETA: NSV: During this workout I was able to do 5 full good form push-ups on the floor!! the other 25 I had to do on my knees but that is definitely progress! When I started this site at the end of last december I couldn't even do one that wasn't on my knees!)

    On a side note, my friend is getting married tonight and I'm bought a new dress and am going all out for it :) Can't wait to post some pics for you guys!

    Hhhhhiiieeee! :)

    So i've been looking at a bunch of different challenge ideas, but does anyone have anything they wanna work on specifically? I.e. abs, butt, etc?

    Just let me know, otherwise i'll be posting next week's challenge, tomorrow!
