    I must have overdone it yesterday, because this morning I woke up in pain (besides my feet). My left shoulder and neck, my right elbow and my left inner thigh are all stiff and sore. If it were minorpai, I would suck it up, but I have a slight limp and have a hard time lifting anything. WTHeck??? Getting older stincks, LOL. Sorry ladies, I will only be able to complete the water portion of today's challenge since jumping jacks and push ups are out of the question today. :(

    Happy Friday :-D

    poor u! i ahve totally done that one

    I would like for everyone to welcome ratcuddler, she is going to be replacing DanceYogaRun.

    DanceYogaRun, we are sorry to see you go and thank you for participating. Please let e know your final weight and if you completed any of today's challenges.

    Ratcuddler, here is where what we are doing...
    Welcome Team. This will be our thread for this challenge.

    We are Fall's Fab Five...

    From Belinda...
    I will give a list of exercises that can be done at home for each day of the week (I will try to get to where I can give you a week out at a time). Your team earns 1 point for each day that you do said exercises. We will always have Sunday as a rest day so that should be 6 days of activity (4 this week). If ALL of your team does the activity EVERY day then you will earn a bonus 5 points for the week.

    You also will earn points off of how much weight is lost and I will add in some extra bonus items for the teams to keep it fun and exciting like extra points for water drank, miles walked/ran, crunches or etc....

    2 sets of 15 wood chops

    No problem :)

    I weigh myself only once a week, so I use my weight from Friday :)

    I also completed my exercises for today too. The water yesterday was a real challenge for me, but I did it.

    WATER DOES NOT COUNT FROM SATURDAY ON....THERE IS NO EXTRA POINTS FOR MONDAY FOR ANYTHING!!! I will annouce the DAILY challenge at random this week.

    After having a rest day on Sunday we are going to have a hardCORE Monday.
    50 crunches/sit ups
    25 righ oblique crunches
    25 left oblique crunches
    30 bicycle crunches VIDEO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5L8BIvIu5pU&feature=BFa&list=PL384172C6326E29EF&lf=rellist
    35 bridge VIDEO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUNiGFvb0qY
    30 plank intervals (by this I mean start with arms extended then lower one arm to rest on your forearm and then lower the other so you are in a lower plank. Hold for a few seconds and then raise back up one arm at a time). Each complete revolution counts as one. VIDEO: FIRST ONE SHE DOES!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwmSDIVpDuo

    Just like week one you can break these up into a circut of your choice. However, do your best to keep this as one workout. The easiest way to break it up is into 5 sets but you are free to do it as you would like.

    If you are wanting to take it up a notch then do this video BEFORE you start your workout.

    My weight this time was 266.6. I knew the 265.8 was too good to be true. That just means I need to work harder this week though.
