Default Red Team - Week 2 Challenge

We did this during the BL Challenge that cakses ran, and it went over well I think. So, post a challenge for someone, a la 20 sit-ups and 20 jumping jacks. Then, the other member has to complete that, say they did and they can post their own challenge for the next taker.
(This idea is thanks to Sunnigummi)

I'll start so you all can have an idea of where to start.

CHALLENGE: Do 25 jumping jacks, 10 push-ups and 15 bicycle crunches

Done. Its been months since I've done things like this. I've been just running, walking, road biking and mt biking this summer. And I really shouldn't have done all of this on a full stomach! yuck! And I should have put on a sports bra.

Done. 15 seconds on my left side for the side plank, and 10 seconds on the other, and 10 for the regular plank.

Done. (All of the above. Aha, that’s right, I’m extra dedicated…no, I just didn’t know we were supposed to do just the last one)

Ok, next is a little cardio: 15 high knees + 15 jumping jacks + 15 butt kicks.
