Default Red Team Week 6 Exercise Challenge - An Extra 10%

Okay, so here is the deal. I want you to total up the number of minutes you spent in exercise last week, and I want you to try for an additional 10% this week. I figure this will be a good way to make sure everyone is challenged, no matter what their current level of fitness. There is one little twist - a minimum. You have to try to get at least 140 minutes (about 20 minutes per day). So, lace up your sneakers and have at it!!

Total Exercise Minutes Last Week - 120 minutes (low I know )
Goal for Week 6 - 300 minutes

Monday - 1 WATP video (30 minutes), Walk to and from work (20 minutes) (Also completed 50 jumping jacks- not all at once though...20 and then 30.)
Tuesday - Walk to work (20 minutes), Brisk walking around town after dinner (20 minutes)
Wednesday - Walk to and from work (25 minutes), Strength training (20 minutes)
Thursday - Walk to and from work (25 minutes), Strength training (10 minutes)- I am SO sore from strength training on my legs that I haven't been able to do any of my exercise videos. Hoping to take a small break tomorrow, and then do a last chance workout on Saturday.
Friday - Walk to and from work (25 minutes), Strength training on my arms (15 minutes)
Saturday - Strength training (30 minutes)
Sunday - OFF DAY

Total - 240 minutes- Goal not met

I really kind of hurt myself this week with some of my strength training on my legs and therefore I ended up having 2 off days this week. I'll continue to strive for it next week again.
