    Congratulations Libby! I didn't know you and Belinda were related :-) Adorable pic!

    Just looked at the spread sheet, I did not know we could make a spread sheet like this! awesome. I assume we give 1 point if we complete the exercises, right?
    YES! she is my daughter-in-law. She is the one that got me on MFP and urged me to make friends which I was hesitant to do. And she was correct. It was worth it. :)

    I agree, Libby! I want to say 'Thanks' too! I'm so glad we're continuing through June, I really need it this month!! I'm beginning packing our house, and the kids are out of school, and my husband will be gone. This week was tough on sodium, because I didn't have much time to cook, so we had to eat out too much. But, I love having the exercises to sneak in around everything else I have to get done!!

    GREAT JOB EVERYONE!!

    Please, DON'T forget to update BOTH tabs on the spreadsheet (exercises and weight) by noon EDT Monday. I will post the scores after that time.

    Here is the plan for this week...


    Weekly Challenge - FRUITS AND VEGGIES!!
    We are suppose to get 5 Fruits and Veggies a day. You can earn 1 point per 5 F/ V that you consume. This is for a FULL serving not a partial serving. You must add the total daily and list what you had. You can get unlimited points based off of how many fruits and veggies you consume (1 point per 5 consumed). We will do partials, so if you have 12 servings your points will be 2.4.


    MONDAY - Total Body (15 min)
    Complete as many rounds possible in 15 minutes. Allow yourself 30 second rest between each different type of exercise.
    Dumbell push up row - x 8
    Lying Knee Raised Crunch - x 8 OR clay if moderate x 8 (x12 if advanced)
    Overhead Squat - x8
    Pull up or Row followed by a Burpee x4 (beginner) x6 if moderate or x 8 if advanced

    All exercises are shown in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GK0uNBvjPhk


    TUESDAY - arms
    2 Sets of 15 swimmers press
    2 sets of 15 wood chops
    2 sets of 21's
    2 sets of 15 tricep kickbacks

    Video:
    Swimmers press: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edj1s-BdyLA&feature=related
    Wood Chop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShEMC1Z2U4c
    21's: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIL7f7Ljb9A (note these are 7 in each position)
    Tricep Kickbacks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOeiqKL0jS4 (note this is 15 per SIDE so 30 per set)


    WEDNESDAY - Glutes and thighs
    3 sets of 8-12 on every exercise on EACH LEG ---- So 16-24 of each exercise if they are leg specific
    - Kneeling Leg Raise --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC9OX5i_dOo
    - Inner thigh leg lifts --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OQXAm7JKuM
    - Reverse Lunge with Rear Leg Raise - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9U3gdrFVNc&feature=related
    - Sumo Squat --- If you want an extra burn add a jump at the end of each squat http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZuXKqRbT9k&feature=related
    - Side Lunge -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUX6Pz8vV0s

    ---- Make sure you stretch out at the end. Try some of these great Glute stretches http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6h9XqRyY04A


    THURSDAY - your choice
    You get the pleasure of a choice. Pick your own 30 min workout. Report back to the group on what you decided to do for your 30 min workout.


    FFIDAY - abs
    Break these up however you would like, but if you are a beginner do break them up!! The easiest way to break these up is into 5 sets of 10 but you can totally decide how you want to do it. They need to be done as one workout though. They should not he broken up through the day.
    - 50 Floor Toe Touch --- http://www.youtube.com/user/ScottHermanFitness#p/c/6979E71ACA9AAC9D/3/QiDNLfNKBYA
    - 50 Standing Oblique twist --- http://www.youtube.com/user/ScottHermanFitness#p/c/6979E71ACA9AAC9D/7/I5YbtdqK6g0
    - 50 Scissor kicks --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWKTmFv76I8
    - 30 plank intervals (by this I mean start with arms extended then lower one arm to rest on your forearm and then lower the other so you are in a lower plank. Hold for a few seconds and then raise back up one arm at a time). Each complete revolution counts as one. VIDEO: FIRST ONE SHE DOES!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwmSDIVpDuo


    SATURDAY - 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.

    - Jump Rope for 2 minute for starters and 3 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 add 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 45 - 90 seconds non stop


    HAVE FUN !! :smile:
