December Exercise Challenge!!
 

Oh, my. One month to the New Year.

I am very impressed with all the exercise you ladies did last month! and incredibly embarrassed with my own lack of progress. You are all to be congratulated. :carrot: :cheer: :hat:

Here's to another month of moving and losing!! :hat:
Anyone is free to jump and join us!! :wave:

Okay, then, here we go!

This morning I did workouts from 2 different DVDs. Kathy Smith's Cardio Timesaver -- Quick Workout #1 = 20 minutes. And Cathe's Maximum Body Sculpting (from the low impact step DVD) -- 28 minutes. My total today -- 48 minutes.

Here is to a sweat-filled, healthy December!

:cheer:

Can I join?
 

I walked 3.5 miles this morning.:)

Hi everyone! I had a good start to December with 45 minutes on the elliptical:D

I totaled up my November minutes - 1235 - I am going to try for 1500 in December, or, at least 1236:p

I did 40 minutes at curves today! yay!

I chased my kids around the mall for 2hrs today! ;)

It's Friday! A cardio day for me, and traditionally I try to do a favorite to celebrate the end of the work week. So this morning I did Cathe's Low Max; I did 5 circuits (out of 7) for a total of 53 minutes.

Have a great day! Keep on pumpin'!

I ran 10 miles this morning. Woo Hoo! :carrot: That is my longest run ever. It took me 2 hours and 23 minutes and I burned 750 calories. What an awesome way to start the month.

2nd: 263 minutes - Phew! 10 miles.

Melissa, that is awesome!!! And, i see you moved your ticker down! Way to go, girlie!

Good going, girls! :hat:

I just did 3 hours of heavy cleaning at my sister's, which I figure equals 90 minutes of exercise. I worked up quite a sweat. Phew! Plus a 20 minute walk.

I hope everyone had a great weekend! I haven't worked out yet today, but wanted to post my weekend exercise.

Friday I ran 3 miles on the treadmill; Saturday I did 45 minutes of tae bo; and Sunday I did 60 minutes of ballet.

Back from the gym! I did 33 minutes on the elliptical.

Hey! This day is flying by!

I'm having quite a busy week -- I'm involved in my church Christmas pageant and it starts this week. Tonight is final dress rehearsal. I have a drama role and my own song -- it's great fun, but I'm already tired and we have 2 weeks of presentations! And I'm already feeling the lack of sleep. We have our final dress rehearsal tonight. I'm in the habit of getting up at 4:30 am to do my exercise, and I'm hoping to continue that! Sleep will be a casualty, but I think I can afford that better than to risk losing my good habits. So send me some kind thoughts, if you wish!

So, over the weekend, on Saturday I did the toning workout from Gilad's 45/45 Split -- 45 minutes.

Sunday (my "active rest day") I did Cathe's Basic Step (30 minutes) and an upper body workout from QuickFix Total Body (10 minutes) -- 40 minutes.

This morning I did Donna Richardson's Brazilian Workout -- 52 minutes.

I hope everybody has a great beginning to this new week!

I want to join in :strong:.

I am setting a goal of 800 minutes. I have never stuck to a consistant exercise schedule so I don't want to over do my first challenge.

Greetings to all!

This morning I did a QuickFix Cardio Hip-Hop workout (10 minutes) and Denise Austin's Shrink Your Female Fat Zones (40 minutes) -- Total 50 minutes.

Send a warm thought -- our morning low was -4, and hubby just called and said the furnace quit! The repairman is on his way, and I hope it's a quick (and if possible, cheap) fix!

Hope your home is warm today!

:flame::flame::flame::flame::flame::flame::flame:: flame::flame:

I worked out last night after I got home. Did my Crunch Pilates dvd.

Dancing Angel - did you get your furnace fixed? I hope so. I thought it was cold here at 30 degrees above. Minus 4 is too darn cold! :sunny: :sunny: :sunny: Here are some sun-shiney vibes for you!

Hey Melissa - we haven't heard from you since your 10 mile run. Are you doing allright?
