Thumbs up August Exercise Challenge

Let's finish the summer strong!

State your exercise goal and track it throughout the month with this supportive group of fellow exercisers. We'll compile our workout goals into a list. As each goal is met during the month, it gets turned RED in celebration.

This thread is for fitness and exercise goals. For other weight loss goals, be sure to see our sister thread: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/chic...challenge.html

My goal this month is 18 Beachbody workouts. It's the same number as last month. I considered raising it a little, but 18 is one of my lucky numbers so I'm going to keep it.

Last month, I was only using Brazil Butt Lift. I have Beachbody on Demand now, so I'll be mixing it up. I'll keep BBL in the rotation though bc my body responds so well to that program. Plus I enjoy it.

If I do more than one workout in a day, I'll still only count it as one.

Aug 02: Completed 1/18 ~ BBL (Bum Bum Rapido) and 10 Minute Trainer (Cardio) ~
Aug 04: 02/18 ~ BBL 2x (Bum Bum Rapido) (High & Tight Pt. 1) and T25 (Cardio) ~
Aug 05: 03/18 ~ BBL (Bum Bum Rapido) ~
Aug 07: 04/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Total Body Cardio) ~
Aug 09: 05/18 ~ BBL (Bum Bum Rapido) and 21 Day Fix (Upper) ~
Aug 10: 06/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Lower) ~
Aug 11: 07/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Cardio) ~
Aug 14: 08/18 ~ BBL (Bum Bum) ~
Aug 16: 09/18 ~ Halfway there! ~ 21 Day Fix (Total Body Cardio) ~
Aug 17: 10/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Upper) and BBL (Bum Bum Rapido) ~
Aug 18: 11/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Cardio) ~
Aug 19: 12/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Lower) ~
Aug 23: 13/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Total Body Cardio) ~
Aug 24: 14/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Upper) ~
Aug 25: 15/18 ~ BBL x2 (High & Tight, Bum Bum Rapido) ~
Final Three
Aug 28: 16/18 ~ BBL (Bum Bum Rapido) ~
Aug 30: 17/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Total Body Cardio) ~
Aug 31: 18/18 ~ 21 Day Fix (Upper) ~ GOAL! Just in time.

My goal is just to get some workouts in. Between having a super busy life right now and having been sick with a sinus/ear infection sort of thing recently, my workouts have been waylaid!

chunkahlunkah I completely forgot about the BBB workout, I think I will do that after I am done with my current DVD's!! I used to have a really nice behind (at the time I thought it was a curse) and now it is flat, flat, flat!!!

I am so proud of myself for working out last night. I didn't feel well all day and I made myself do it anyways!

kfunk - Well done on powering through and getting that workout in! Yeah, BBL is amazing, very well-designed routines. Some of the moves can be tricky at first due to coordination and balance, but that aspect gets much easier over time. I recall being frustrated for a couple of weeks before I finally got them down. If that happens to you, stick with it. It's so worth it.
