    Yeah... Go ahead and post new custom routines group. Also we can repeat some if need be. I posted one workout so far to start us off for this week.

    >>>>>As a side challenge for this week: Try to drink 2 more >> 8 oz cups / 0.23 Liters << of water over what you normally drink throughout the day. (I think I drink about 12 cups a day so I will try to drink 14 cups.)

    Wonderful lineup once again. embclark. My legs are going to feel that tomorrow LOL. My hips might also from those leg raises. I still do not know if I am doing those exactly right. I also did workout 5 of 12 from the 3 week easy line up prior to this, so I used that as a warmup. I am enjoying the boxing. The Mountain boarding and biking are fun and challenging at the same time.

    Thanks Stixx... that was extremely challenging. Great name for that workout. My arms and core are trembling to about a 6.0 on the richter scale. :laugh: I think that is the most Push Ups I have done in one day. The Leg Raise and the Reverse Crunch combo was killer. Simply amazing workout that literally pushed to the limit.

    Burned 150 calories in 25 minutes on this one.

    I've done all but the last workout for this week, all great! Just haven't had as much effort to post when finished this week...

    "Core Cracker" was just now and it was great! BUT "reverse crunches" is NOT a cool down! :-)

    I added on a bit more cardio at the end just to get me goin a bit more...

    I just took a scroll through my medals and realized that since mid January I have done 90 workouts! I need 10 more for another medal! Also, there are a handful of medals I haven't gotten yet, so lookout for my workouts to all consist of very specific activities!

    I think it said I have 71/88 medals. How many do you guys have?

    Question though! We earn a medal for trying each activity and it says that I need 6 more. How do I know what I haven't tried without going through every activity?

    ^^^^ Got through this one^^^^^ tonight.
    Burned 177 cals in 28 minutes.

    A nice sweat inducing workout. And with the Cardio kickstart workout I did before hand, I scored the Pumping Iron and the Brick Wall Milestones tonight.... Sweeeet. So that brings me to a total of 83. I only need two more for the fitness sampler milestone but do not know which ones I need so maybe a systematic approach might help narrow that down. I know I have done most of the events. I really need the Basketball shoot, Mountain boarding & biking, and the Fitness trail events.

    Good night group.
