***WEEKLY CHALLENGE*** May 8
Sometimes it's easy to forget to stretch, when we're focused on getting a workout in. Let's work on remembering this week. Even if it's only 5 minutes a day, even on days when we don't workout. Just chime in once you've done your stretching for the day. If you don't know what stretches to do, you can find lots of basic…

***WEEKLY CHALLENGE*** May 1
Because I'm so not on the ball this week, so far, let's do another mileage challenge this week. I'll come up with something else for next week's challenge.

***WEIGH IN*** May 1
Sorry I'm late! I literally woke up and went to help make etched copper medals for my son's Pentathalon. Very cool process, and very time consuming. Last weigh in for our first round! I'll post weekly, monthly, and overall rankings tomorrow night. This weigh in will also count as the first for our next wave. Let me know if…

***POLL-PLEASE COMMENT***
As a group we need to decide if we'd like to continue our challenge. I'm sure there are many options, but here are the ones I've come up with... ...end the group ...keep on moving through the challenge; probably month - to - month ...take a break for a short period of time, and pick up the challenge again Please let me…

***WEEKLY CHALLENGE*** April 24
So we're already ending what would be the second day of a weekly challenge, and I've got nothing. My focus has been on legal matters that are getting bigger rather than smaller, so I had an idea! Instead of me just asking you to do one exercise all week, let's challenge each other. What would you like to challenge the…

***WEEKLY STANDINGS*** April 25

***WEEKLY CHALLENGE*** April 10
Let's get back to some core work and revisit the Plank Challenge! Remember, we're going for total time rather than consecutive time. It is suggested that there isn't a benefit to doing planks for longer than 1 minute at a time. Some trainers cut that back to 30 seconds, so don't be afraid to do small increments throughout…

***WEEKLY STANDINGS*** April 11
I wish I had some great or encouraging words to share, but it's been a long Monday. Thanks everyone for being here.

Another week gone by and it's time to weigh in. I thought I'd try tagging our regulars in this post to see if it gets your attention. I'll still send out private messages, if needed. @arnottr3 @atrosper @itstime2016 @JBsJazz @emshields1 ...and a few ladies we haven't seen in a few weeks @bellabettysmama @highlandshoppa…

Here we go ladies! This one should be fun! Fire Hydrants! If you haven't done these, be ready to feel the burn. Aim for at least 10 reps per side every day. Do more if you can, and post your daily accomplishments here. Here's how to do them... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=La3xYT8MGks

Losing steam?
Are we, as a group, losing steam? Only a few people weighing in, zero responses to the weekly challenge (other than myself), and silence so far this week. Is there anything more/different that you want/need from the group? Any requests of me to do something more? Or are we just losing active members because of people…

***WEEKLY CHALLENGE*** March 20
Broaden Your Horizons Each day this week, scroll through the available activities here on MFP, and pick a new one to try. Pick activities that you wouldn't normally do or that you haven't done for at least 6 months. You could also use activities that aren't on the list, as long as they aren't your usual choices. Let us…

After a fairly quiet week on here, it's time to weigh in again. How did everyone do?

***WEEKLY CHALLENGE*** March 13
Is everyone staying hydrated? This week's challenge will make sure we are! Can you meet your water requirements daily? Divide your current weight (in pounds) in half. Divide that number by 8. That is the number of 8 oz cups of water you need every day. Remember to drink extra water when you exercise! Recommendations vary…
