CHALLENGE #3: DAY 3: WEEK 1: Wednesday :)


So i thought prehaps i should just post challenege #3, just to let you guys know what your doing 2morro :)


XERCISE:
This challenge will be only leg work. And the lucky number for today is 40. Everything we do, we do it 40 times.
- Jumping jacks
- Star Jumps
- Squats
- Lunges
How do we do this challenge?
- Easy we do the jumping jacks in 4 sections of 10, after every section we take a short break of less then 10 seconds.
- Same with the star jumps
- the squats and lunges would be the same, we do it again in four sections, 10, 10, 10 and 10. But what we do is after everyone we hold it in the low stand for 10 seconds, until we feel the burn.

NUTRITION:
-2 fruits and 5 veges. After you finish the challenge, in your feedback tell us what the 2 fruits and 5 veges were :)

Good luck :)

    Oh duh! I thought it was Wednesday! Only joined today so did this one. Then realised it was Wednesday so went back to the beginning at day one (man that was hard!). So I'll do challenge 2 tomorrow.

    I was drinking a latte when I joined this group today so count me out on that bit. I have so far drank about 2.5 litres of water today though. Feel a lot clearer and more energetic for sure.

    Oh and I've managed 5 veggies and 1 fruit so far today but not had dinner yet so will definitely smash that.

    Okay, I did this challenge right now ( 6am), I knew I needed to get it in this morning because I'm going out for lunch for my birthday and then to my party later. You're right, this challenge was killer. My legs and my butt were burning from all of the squats and lunges but its all good cos you know that means its working. For breakfast today I ate a mixed fruit salad with watermelon, pineapple, grapes and berries and a veggie omelette with onions, peppers, tomatoes and mushrooms. Good start to the day, at least I feel all right now if I don't eat so great later! xx

    Exercises done :) It was nice to get my heart rate up first thing in the morning.

    For fruit and veggies, I have only had breakfast but in an effort to curb my snacking throughout the day (stay at home mom/part time college instructor leaves a lot of openings for fridge hovering) I have started planning out my day ahead of time. I work tonight so I packed my dinner already. Here is the plan for the day:

    F1 clementine orange (ate for breakfast)
    F2 apple (packed for dinner)
    Extra fruit tomatoes (packed for dinner)
    V1 spinach (lunch)
    V2 Cucumber (lunch)
    V3 leek (packed for dinner)
    V4 zucchini (packed for dinner)
    V5 broccoli (packed for dinner)

    I have drank 4 litres of water today! I've been singing for the last two hours though so 1.5 went during the lessons.

    It's like I'm pregnant again!

    I only managed one fruit today - banana but the shopping only got delivered after dinner.

    Veggies I've had spinach, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, sweet corn, peppers, cucumber, and beans.

    This challenge encourage me to consume less calories. I had raisins and an apple for my fruit and vegetables: mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, brussel sprouts, and green beans. I burned 64 calories within 9 minutes to complete exercise and yes my inner thighs and arms are muscles are sore. Excellent challenge with bathroom breaks every 20 minutes!
