  • @Spike - ALL of the teams only have a few people participating. I'm keeping track of the people not weighing in and not participating though, so I'll probably redo/consolidate teams in a couple weeks. Winner for last week is the BLUE TEAM! It was close though. Blue team came in with 14,980 calories burned! 2nd: Green, with…

  • @Angela - Are you doing any physical therapy for your shoulder injury? Reps of any exercise - including physical therapy exercises - count. The challenge ends today though, so if not, no worries. :) I got a sinus infection after I got back from travelling, so I only got 95 reps this week. :( Ninjakelly, you're still…

  • Percent weight loss = (Pounds lost/starting weight) * 100 I have an Excel spread sheet set up with the numbers and formulas. Pounds lost would be easier, but it's not actually a fair way to calculate loss, especially for our lighter members. @Haliburton - Look at the dates - it's for LAST WEEK, not this week. Kinda hard to…

  • You guys are all doing great! Sorry I've been absent... went away the weekend before last, then turned around and drove 10 hours to my parents new place - I've been helping them paint, shop for furniture, etc. Now I'm back, and I'll try to get the weigh in and challenge results done by tomorrow. EDIT: WEIGH-IN results are…

  • YES - include Friday's number! @tosha_e_1 - Tough call on the breastfeeding. It is a normal daily activity for you, so I would lean towards no, but it's really up to you if you want to count it for this challenge. (Haha, I'm not a very helping Mod, am I?)

  • Prev total: 2391 Friday: 890 Total: 3281 So, everybody post their TOTALS for this week, because SATURDAY starts a new weekly challenge! (Upper body - see the weekly challenge thread). Great job this week!
    in BLUE CREW Comment by Viola47 March 2013
  • WEEK STARTING 3/30 This is an UPPER BODY Challenge. Post the number of reps you do! For instance, if you do 5 pushups, 5 shoulder presses, and 10 bicep curls, you have 20 total reps. I'll post the winning team of the last challenge Monday!

  • Yeah, I hate them, too. Try the jump rope! (I know it feels funny if you don't have a jump rope, but if you've ever watched a Jillian Michaels' workout DVD you'll understand what I mean.) I usually do burpees instead of jumping jacks, because JJs hurt my knees and the bust thing. If you're having problems when running and…

  • Hmm.... you don't need a kettlebell for burpees. Observe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2cPYR0lRUE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pf7wZvraWV0 Assuming you meant for something else, some kettlebell alternatives: A dumbbell (heavy) A gallon jug, filled (~8.6 lbs) Bag of soil, dog food, etc (double bagged) Also, Ross has…

  • TUESDAY – 50 Burpees. Also, eat your veggies! Seriously, for most of us that’s 2-3 cups. Eat ‘em up, people. WEDNESDAY – 5 min. jump rope or jumping jacks (pretend jump rope if you don’t have one), plus 30 ab moves (sit-ups, any time of crunch you can think of, etc.) THURSDAY – You can’t weigh yourself today, either. In…

  • Yeah, I weight myself a lot too, so this challenge is difficult. :/ And not weighing myself until Friday like a couple of you? LOL. No way.... I would fail that challenge!
