GREEN TEAM: WEEK TWO CHALLENGE

This week we are shaking things up a little bit.
For our PHYSICAL challenge, we are doing a weekly challenge based on logging exercises... but we are breaking it down into daily activities. Each day we will have an activity of the day, and you can just log your minutes or reps. Don't worry about competing with team members - we have all fitness levels here. Just do the best you can - you are only competing against YOURSELF. As long as you are improving and moving, that's what counts! :happy:
MONDAY: Crunches
TUESDAY: Pushups (let us know what kind: wall, knee, full, or other)
WEDNESDAY: Lunges (great for your balance as well as glutes)
THURSDAY: Squats
FRIDAY: Burpies
If you have questions about how to do any of these exercises, please just ask!!
For our MENTAL challenge, I want each of us to think about what our biggest challenge or obstacle is to achieving our goal. Is it your belief in yourself? Time? Money (for buying healthy food)? Family or friends not supporting you? Or something else?
Post about it here, and we can all work together to find solutions or new ideas.
Good luck in week two!!!!

Thanks!! The more you do daily you will build up endurance. I probably started out doing about 20 squats and 25 crunches but my legs have gotten so strong that I do 3 sets of 100 squats and my core has gotten stronger so I'm able to do 4 sets of 50 crunches. I want to get to the point where I can do 2 sets of 100 crunches but I'm not there yet. I have more work to do. Keep working at it even if it isn't one of the challenges. It's a great workout.0 -

I did two sets of 15 earlier, so I am getting better!
For the first time today, I saw progress in my workout. :bigsmile:0 -

That's great Carla. Keep working at it and you will reach your goal.0 -
My biggest challenge so far is being in my last semester of school. I'm a culinary student and I'm in class on Wednesdays from 9am-8 pm which makes it hard to get my exercise in but I get it done. I prefer to workout in the day time but on Wednesdays I have to do it at night.
I look at it like this, to get the results I want, I have to be willing to make the necessary sacrifices. Green team, let's keep working toward our goals. I have no doubt it's going to pay off.:smooched:0 -
Since I just was added to the Green Team, I didn't get a chance to see the weekly challenges until today. However, I can say that I have completed each type of exercise. It might not have been on the selected day and I have no idea of the reps (we track time in Adventure Boot Camp instead of reps), but I did do them. I am so excited to say I completed this and actually know what a burpie is now! Good Luck everyone! :bigsmile:

Welcome to the Green Team. Glad to have you aboard. Out of every exercise listed, burplies is my least favorite. To be honest, I hate them. But I will defeat them TODAY.:laugh: :laugh:0 -
Having just been added to the green team I have to say starting the challenge with Burpies is quite a challenge! I will get them done today though!0

Welcome Jen!! Burpies is my least favorite too. They really cause me to step out of my comfort zone.0 -
I agree with you - I hate the burpies as well but they are effective. I am sure I will be doing more of them during the next 3 week of my boot camp.0
