That’s a great idea- I am gonna set it for when I am work. Maybe I can get the juices flowing in between desk jockey life. 😜 Ug. Maybe take TWO days off and get your electrolytes back up to snuff first. Starting from a position of healthy helps to build strength ! 💪 Good work! Make sure to prioritize your fitness…

Starting weight Jan 1: 191lbs Goal weight: 139 Current weight: 188.8 Total weight lost: 2.2 This week's successes: 6 days of intentional activity This week's challenges: ug. STILL not drinking enough water. 😋

Daily Post (Sun) Track: Yup! Calories: under by quite a bit. Feel guilty but meh. Exercise: 10km on the treadmill.

60minutes in January, with a mini goal of 15 per week. 🤗 Jan 7 7.5/15 Jan 14 0/15 Jan 21 0/15 Jan 28 0/15 Only 1x1m effort tonite. (Did burpees instead of planking this morning. And then a 10km run/walk. ) fingers crossed I built momentum over this month! 🙂

As this is new to me too, I am learning along the way with everyone’s help! I am gonna try on a new format: the day’s burpee count, with a running monthly tally. —— Jan 5: 22 So far this month: 48 Banged them out first thing in the morning. Hope the muscles are not too mad at me Monday morning! 😜

Aw Pisanee, you are living the reality of why I threw this challenge up: Life is that- life! If it doesn’t hold a burpee in it, then be fine with it. Next day it might. Or next week. My idea for everyone was just do more than last month. Rinse and repeat.( I bet you are already ahead on that scale?). I am gonna take a cue…

Welcome Kokodaready. You sound like a burpee boss already. I love your chosen way do doing your personal burpee challenge! I would change mine to match but honestly sometimes 1 minute would push me into excuses instead. ( might make it a mini weekly challenge tho! 😉)

Glad I found this group- love LOVE reading all your posts! Dec 30- Jan 5: start up week was pretty good. Managed to get in 5 walk/runs, plus today’s first LSD run of 10.5 km. This next week I hope to bump my duration times each day so I manage 5km a Trek, and Sunday’s to 13km🤞

Congratulations everyone! So I am guessing I do NOT put in today’s final weigh-in stats here? ( I weigh in on Sundays)

60minutes in January, with a mini goal of 15 per week. 🤗 Jan 7 6.5/15 Jan 14 0/15 Jan 21 0/15 Jan 28 0/15 Tried it in the am before anything else: still only 1 minute but I managed FOUR rounds of the same! ( I don’t count anything under 30seconds) Yup. Definitely a morning thing for me.

Grandbaby came down to my basement gym today. Not much got done though we had tons of fun. In addition to some planking trials, I completed 4x 8count burpees. Modified none! (Feeling good but tired - she was up half the nite.) 😴

Jan 3 Daily check in Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: Yes ( a short run plus cardio video, a couple burpees & a 1minute plank)🤗

60minutes in January, with a mini goal of 15 per week. 🤗 Jan 7 2.5/15 Jan 14 0/15 Jan 21 0/15 Jan 28 0/15 Third attempt was meh: 61 seconds. For some reason I expected to do twice that! Maybe I should do it in the morning first thing. 🧐

😲 Omg YAY!!! Can’t tell ya how excited I was to see your post! Modify or reduce- listen to your body Pisanee. 👍 Good work today Carole. Keep that attitude strong, every bit makes a difference. Thanks for the reminder too. I hate yoga, but my body likes the flexibility it sees over time. And yup- I will be here everyday so…

Had the grandbaby this afternoon n evening -she is getting heavy. BUT I just did two burpees so I could keep my streak alive! Not so bad. Awesome sauce will come later once I get in a rhythm 😉

No idea.

Right?! Feels great when we stop thinking and start doing.wrists: I use fists for pushups, maybe try that? Step backs are accepted as a modified burpee. The idea is just do what you can. Great work Carole 🤗 Welcome PC. Good job on jumping right in. Hardest intentional burpee is the first one, but every one after that is a…

Well I was thinking of doing this monthly ( I did my first one in December) but- heck- this way is even better. Can’t wait to get to know you all over the next year! Starting weight Jan 1: 191lbs Goal weight: 139 Current weight: 191 Total weight lost: 0 This week's successes: lost 5lbs over Holiday season. This week's…

Daily check in Jan 2 Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: Yes ( a couple short runs plus 10 burpees & a 1minute plank) Getting my groove back 🤗

Welcome! Starting out IS tough- especially the first month ( gotta find your mojo!) but you will get it done. What’s your regular routine now?

60minutes in January, with a mini goal of 15 per week. 🤗 Jan 7 1.5/15 Jan 14 0/15 Jan 21 0/15 Jan 28 0/15 Second attempt was better! 63 seconds. 😁

Jan 2: 10 burpees again. Starting sloooow n easy... well I say that but today’s 10 felt hard. Gotta get my core stronger 🤗

Welcome Carole- I am honoured to have my 3yr old grand daughter stay over every weekend, and BOY do I know what you mean! It’s the consistency that is hard at first- and 1 burpee a day is a fine goal 👍

Daily check in Jan 1 Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: Yes ( lift, run & yoga) Fantastic start to my new year!

I am new to the teams part of this and am on the site attempting to see the other teams .. tried to ‘follow’ easier said than run but there are quite a few- how do I know which group is from this challenge?

Goal 60minute in January, with a mini goal of 15 per week. 🤗 Jan 7 0.5/15 Jan 14 0/15 Jan 21 0/15 Jan 28 0/15 Super humbling- lasted just 31 seconds in a forearm plank, and I gave everything to it 😲

Jan 1 : 10 burpees - it’s enough as a start, because I already did a lifting wo and a treadmill run. 🤗

Wow, so many examples to work from- thank you for leading this! My own challenge for the year is at least one burpee everyday, so any planking would be a side help to excel there as well as help my core strengthening needs. 😉 Not even sure how long I can go in one stint yet but will set myself up with the suggested…
