    Monday 11/14 -- Total Body
    3 sets with 12-20 reps depending on ability level (30-60 sec rest). We are doing this as a circut workout so you will do 1 complete set of the 8 workouts before you start the 2nd set. This is designed to work your entire body and have max burn in a short time. You can determine what your ability level is on how many reps you will be doing of each exercise.

    - Jump Rope for 1 minute for starters and 2 min for advance (if you don't have a jump rope air jump like you have one)
    - Crunchs
    - Fusion Glide (1 count is doing both right and left side) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SsajHuCEr4&feature=results_video&playnext=1&list=PL5095738D47309BAE
    - Incline push up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9TocAxv-Qk&NR=1
    - Burpies http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DVzT5mqeew (the end of this video show an alternate version of this if you have bad knees) If you think this is easy ad a jumping jack at the end of each burpee
    - Tricep Dips http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKjcgfu44sI
    - Alternating Superman http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-d7akq040w
    - Jumping Jacks 30 - 60 seconds non stop

    Tuesday 11/15 -- Legs
    100 jumping jacks
    50 squat kicks --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGRa8ImLY-E
    1 mile run/walk on top of what you already had planned for the day. If 1 mile is easy make it a 5k
    75 calf raises --- can be done on flat ground. Add weight or a ledge to increase difficulty
    20 Kneeling Side Leg Raise -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MZPEq2o9Mk&feature=related


    Wednesday 11/16 -- Arms
    Everything should be broken up into 3 sets of 12-15

    Standing Bicep Curls: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av7-8igSXTs
    Shoulder Press: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-aVuyhvLHU&feature=relmfu

    Team... We have not heard from ratcuddler since last Tuesday. I sent her messages yesterday and today, but they have gone unanswered and unread. Should we give her more time or should we try to find a replacement? Do you know of anyone who would like to join our team? What are your thoughts?

    LOL, I did the jump rope (minus the rope) at home, alone. Keep up the good work.:)

    How does the Weight Watchers work? Are there a specific number of points that you are allowed daily?
