Had an awesome pump class today, put more weight on squats, chest, back and tris over the last couple of weeks and it feels so good to be getting stronger!

I even managed a couple of propulsion lunges, so right now I feel invincible! Especially after a great run this morning too, YIPPEEEEE! Rest days really rock sometimes!

Well, I didn't intend to have two rest days, but I strained my neck muscles on Wednesday and have been dealing with muscle pain in the neck and migraines. Today I took ibuprofen earlier, but decided to skip the bodypump as that's what strained my neck and decided to bike ride and run/walk today. Both felt great!

Good to have you back HMM3, I find this challenge so motivating for keeping going on the exercise no matter what food slip ups I have

Melissa hope you're fully mended now, and if not keep on taking your break from Pump. I might have to skip jogging tomorrow, am feeling very tight after Pump and Hydrojog tonight. Will assess again in the morning......

April 1st - 45 minute spinning class
April 2nd - 60 minute Pump class
April 3rd - 30 minutes c25k w4d1 + 15 mins mega brisk walking in the rain
April 4th -60 minute Pump class + 15 mins jogging
April 5th - 45 minute spin class
April 6th - Rest
April 7th - 60 minute Pump class + 10 mins jogging
April 8th - 45 minute spin class
April 9th - 40 minutes C25K (W4D2 + extra walk at end)
April 10th - 45 minutes C25K (W4D3 + long extra walk thanks to ending way further from home than I'd have liked!) + 15 min strength (arms and abs @ home)
April 11th - 45 minute spin + 60 minute Pump
April 12th - 45 minute spin + 40 mins C25K w5D1 (modified)
April 13th - REST
April 14th - 60 minute pump + 50 Minute C25K W5D2 (extra walking tagged on the end)
April 15th - Nothing
April 16th - Pump 60mins and Hudrojog 45 mins (I signed up for the extra hydro class to make up for missing yesterday due to a Christening), but now I hurt, so probably wasn't the best choice!

890/1260 = 370 to go

hello girls! congratz on the hard work! i'm still sticking to our thing, too! just for an update - i've changed my regiment to a split resistance training and i must say i love it! it's a great change, because i was getting tired of my regiment lately. hopefully it will result in some increased muscle mass (-> to burn my fat and to tone my body forthe summer!)
i cant belive it's about to be a third of our challenge behind us! YAY
