So if you haven't already heard, our first mini challenge is...
BURN A POUND!
We've all got to aim for a total calorie burn of 3500 this week - which is the equivalent to a pound! So make sure you log every workout so you can tot it up come the end of the week.
Some high burn workout suggestions are:
Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred - a high intensity 30 minute workout that burns about 250 cals
Zumba - lots of fun and melts about 500 cals an hour
Kettlercise - strength and cardio are a winning combo, resulting in a whopping 800 cals an hour!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep us updated here with how you're all getting along
Go get it guys!! xx

Just over 1000 today walking and playing with my kids.0

I plan to take the bike to work today. That should help me make up for not exercising Monday.
How do we count weeks by the way, starting on July 1st or on Monday?0 -

I have some catching up to do. Was planning on doing more walking last night and ended up with a migraine. tried JM shred this morning and could on do 8 minutes due to said migraine. I have a meeting until 9 tonight so I will have to get creative on how to make up some caloric burn. Tomorrow I have off work and plan to romp in the pool a bit. That should help... I hope...0

I just found this group and would like to join you all. I don't know if I can burn 3500 calories in a week, but I'm willing to try! Thanks for the suggestions on workouts. That is helpful! Good luck to everyone.0

Hope you feel better soon And a romp in the pool sounds like a great way to burn some calories! 0 -

I burned about 480 last night in the pool, then 250 this morning with the JM 30DS. So I am on my way! Will do JM every day and then the pool some days to round it out.0
