    Welcome to the group and welcome to the challenge.

    Just a reminder (and if you scrolled this thread you probably know) you need to have a 3wk, 9wk or Custom EASA2 workout starting or in progress for the challenge.

    Have fun and welcome. And I hope you brought some extra motivation. I know I need some. :smile:

    So I have about a week and a half left on my 9 week program. I am also planning to start the 30 days shred soon... After my 9 week program is over and I start a different routine through ea active I don't want it to be as hard as these past few weeks... Phase 3 of medium is kicking my *kitten*. Past few workouts have been about 45 minutes and burning over 300 calories. I plan to customize workouts and alternate upper and lower body target 4 days a week. But I will also be doing the 30 day shred which is about 20 minutes a day. So do you think doing just 20 minute workouts would be good or should I make them longer on the ea active? I don't want to kill myself, but I don't want to let myself off the hook either! Thanks for an opinion!

    I would say it takes me about an hour and 15 to do these... Between the loading of the new exercises and when I need to stop and breathe for a moment! I am looking forward to this being done so I can do a few weeks of exercises that don't take my daughter's entire nap time from me...

    It sounds like you have good workout planned between the 30day and the EASA. If you feel like you can go longer on EASA then maybe make it a 30min workout. Also if you use weights maybe increase the resistance instead of increase the length of the workout.
    Great job sticking with it.
    Have a hoppy Easter.:wink:

    Has not been done yet in this group.
    Sounds like a great use for the Custom Workouts.
    Sounds great to me. Anything to burn off this Easter candy.:happy:

    Im voting for a mountainboarding Challenge!!!!! One of the most calorie burning workout on EASA2 or we can do a sport specific challenge (ie. all soccer exercises)


    BTW: Thanks to Jaccyber for her timely and efficient stat posting... awesome to see it on "paper"!!

    Great job peeps!! Let keep going

    my question of the day: Now that week one is over, any advise for you fellow challengers for week 2?

    oh i had another question lol: so it looked like i lost 1.5 inches on my waist last week.. i dont believe it? what gives ?
