ALRIGHT GUYS! Lets slim down and shape up. Lets do some WEEKLY CHALLENGES to melt that fat!

Keep in mind that if you have any challenges you want to start, post away! I think it would be cool for everyone to come up with challenges and get everyone else to do them. The more workout/challenge options the better.

MY CHALLENGE FOR YOU (starting off easy):
(this may be childs play for you lifters :P)

For one week do each of these each day....
150+ situps or crunches (seperate them throughout the day) -ie. 5X30
300 jumping jacks -ie. 5X60
30 pushups -ie. 3X10
50 lunges
50 squats

What are you doing reading this still? Get to work!

    This is my work out plan as it stand now

    Sunday: Yoga/ c25k with my 11 year old son
    Monday: Zumba 1 hr
    Tuesday:Yoga/ c25k with my 11 year old son
    Wednesday:Zumba 1 hr
    Thursday:Yoga/ c25k with my 11 year old son
    Friday:Zumba 1 hr
    Saturday: REST (which really just means work on my farm)

    I want to try the 30 day shred, but I'm unsure if I should add it to this program. I don't want to drop any of this so maybe the shred will have to wait until DH and I run our race in August.

    Since my main goal right now is to lose weight and burn fat my fitness goal for the week is to do 1 hour of high intensity cardio everyday! For nutrition since I like to cook and make up new recipes I will be creating a new yummy protein shake recipe for my breakfast everyday. Yesterday was mint chocolate oreo, and today was pumpkin pie, both were SUPER yummy!
