in Fitness and Exercise
We are a group of MFP's who have committed to doing 1000 minutes of exercise per month (minimum). We count minutes for all types of exercise: yoga, aerobics, walking, weight training, strength work, stretching or heavy gardening. You be the judge of whether it's exercise. We're here to support, encourage, and set challenges for ourselves. It's all about intention. If we don't make the 1000 minutes this month, there's next month to go for it. Newcomers always welcome!

Here’s how to join, plus some additional information:
• You simply post to join.
• You will keep track of your own minutes every month-see intro to see what types of activities count toward the total. If you join us mid-month, it's ok to try for a percentage of the 1000, e.g. join on the 15th, go for 50% or 500 minutes.
• Most people track on the days they workout, sometimes more.
• We try to encourage and support each other.
• Not many folks post on weekends but more post on Monday-Friday.

    I am Allyson and live in texas on a small farm. I walk alot (@ 2 hours 3 days a week and 45min to an hour the rest of the days) feeding the animals and I count it as walking so can I do 2000?
    Do you know how to make one of those trackers people put in their signatures?

    Hey people!! Day 2 already almost done with!

    Ok, so in all I had 82 minutes today :)
    To break it down: 30 minutes on the treadmill, 45 minutes on the bike, and 2 minutes doing crunches.

    Wish you all lots of luck for the next 28 days :)
