    Belinda has worked very hard to get us a full weeks worth of workouts... Thank you bmfrazie :)

    From Belinda...
    I am trying to listen to feedback and keep things ever changing. I am trying to keep each day different and focus on different areas. I will have some days that are filled with exercises that you are use to doing and other days will have new exercises to give you a wider knowledge of what is out there. I hope that you guys all appreciate that I am giving you a week worth of exercises in one day. It is def time consuming to think of workouts and then find videos to go with each exercise. I have also tried to increase difficulty as we are moving on. If these are too hard or you need a modification please message me and we will see what we can work out.

    Thursday 11/10 -- abs

    Thank you Libby :)

    Attention team: It looks like in addition to the above workout for tomorrow we are going to have an additional challenge that has something to do with miles. I will keep you updated as information becomes available. :)

    Just thought I would let you all know that the exercised are working. There are spots that are sore. WHICH means it is working body parts that have not been worked before! :wink:

    Jenn did you not see the post yesterday about todays daily challenge?

    If not here is the info for you guys.....
    Thursday is a mileage challenge. The miles that you walk/run today will be counted directly into your team points. Biking miles are divided into a 4th of the distance...ex 100 miles =25 miles. All portions of the mile counts so if you have someone that goes 1.36 miles mark it down.

    Next week the weekly challenge is going to be staying under or right on your calories for each day.

    Nope, hadn't seen it, I was offline last night. The hubby and I went to a rock concert \m/><\m/. I went straight to bed when we got home, slept in just a bit and just got back from the gym.
    I did 15 miles on the bike and will have the other portion of the workout done later today. :)

    Here is Belinda's post that I missed yesterday... Sorry for the lateness. She also has a week long bonus for next week. Watch you calories :)
    The last daily challenge for this week will be on THURSDAY! It is a miles challenge based on how many miles you walk/run. If they are biked then divide by 4 === bike 100 miles will equal 25 miles. Any other questions?

    Next week we will have a week long challenge again. It will be 1 point for each day you stay UNDER or smack on your calorie goal. Each person can earn a max of 6 points for the team....30 extra points all together. This means you have to track ALL of your food intake.

    Good luck everyone!
