February Exercise Challenge
 

How will you move in February?

Everyone is welcome to post fitness and exercise goals for February 2011 here and then track them through the month. Log your workouts, your minutes, the times you take the steps instead of the elevators, anything that gets you moving more whether the goal is big or small.

State your goal in a post. I will add your goal to the goal list. When you reach your goal, it gets turned Red.

We have a sister thread February Weight Loss Challenge for weight loss goals. Join in one thread or both! We'd love to have you with us.

February is a short month, so I'm going for 1300 minutes again. I'm also going to continue putting a * on entries where I avoided doing the same workout two days in a row because that helped my variety.

My goal is 3000 minutes.

:) My exercise goal for February is to walk on the Treadmill for 7hours(1680min) or more a week and walk around the school on breaks

My goal is to make it to the gym 12 times and workout at home at least six. I will be traveling for work this month so I'm hoping that I will be able to reach my goals.:D

my goal is 1000 minutes. I do need to take it easy as i'm still not cleared for hardcore exercising since my c-section.... but 1000 minutes... i can do it!


1-50 mins WATP 4 fast miles
2-50 mins WATP 4 fast miles
3-32 mins biggest loser power walk 1-2
4-32 mins biggest loser power walk 3-4
5-0
ordered to take it easy so my surgery scars can heal properly)
6-30 minutes carpet shampooing ( talk about a workout!)

My goal will be 20/28 and 1200 minutes.

My Goal for this month, is to do something everyday. I like doing the 60 minutes of step a day and I would like to keep up with that. But I think It would be good If I took at least one day off a week. I don't want to over do it.

So I guess 24/28 and 60 minutes a day.

I been wanting to jump into HIGH gear with working out and jumping right in might be DRASTIC but I been ready for soooo LONG so my goal is to do 20/28 days for a total of 1200 minutes.... Wish me luck!

So looking forward to seeing this list grow. Good luck eveyrone!

It's a little hard to calculate how many minutes of workout I do a month, since I'm following 'Insanity' and each workout can vary anywhere from 30 minutes, to 60. I will aim for 1000 minutes, 24/28 days this month. I'll post the amount of minutes my workout was and what kind of workout I did that day :)

Comment for todays workout: :devil:
Agh, I'm still panting! We got no breaks in that workout, and I'm starting to notice the stretches are usually the time I sweat the most. I lasted a little longer without completely stopping to rest or get water, so I'm happy about that. I've still got a long ways to go!

1: 40 Mins - Pure Cardio

Jumpin in here too!

My exercise goal for February is 1200 minutes

On monday night my sister challenged me to walk 100 miles by April 5th :p

Feb. 1st - April 5th: 64 DAYS! (more than 1.5 miles per day) :o

So far I have 5 miles down ... 95 to go! :D

I'd like to join this challenge as well, but I JUST started exercising (literally on Monday) and have never exercised regularly before, so my goals for this month are really modest. Right now I am only fast-walking on the treadmill for 30 min, but plan to start with some weight training next week. I am hoping that joining this challenge will help me to stay on track!

Goals for February: Make it to the gym 20 of 28 days, add weight training 2x per week, and increase to 45 min on the treadmill on cardio days by the end of the month.



Feb 1 - 30 min on the treadmill

And here's my February so far:

1. 3 walk + 5 gym = 8 kms
2. 3 walk + 7 gym + 3 walk = 13 kms


Total for February: 21 kms

2~1~30 minutes mild cardio
2~2~30 minutes snow shoveling more to go!

xXLosingItXx: most of us repost everyday -- it helps facilitate a little conversation during the month. Although, we aren't very chatty (we're busy exercising!) so if you prefer to update your first post, that's fine, too. I keep my log as a notepad file on my desktop so I can easily cut and paste from there. That also lets me save a copy in a folder of exercise logs so I know have them going all the way back to September of 2009!

I was dragging at the gym today. I had almost no energy. Could be a couple factors. The gym didn't open until noon because of the weather, and I'm used to going in the morning after breakfast. I also feel really awful with this cold. I hope being sick doesn't negatively affect my weight loss.

1 Body Conditioning = 60 mins
2 Treadmill jogging 30 mins, Circuit training 60 mins = 90 mins
