Thumbs up July Exercise Challenge

Let's show some explosive energy in our July workouts!

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

I need to get back on track, so my goal for July will be 1,500 minutes. That's what I did in May and saw good results on the scales!

Okay - I never even got out of the gate in June -- so, I'm going to go for the following:

5 days a week - bounce on tramp 5 times a day for 2 minutes each (B5x2)
5 days a week - walk at least 10 minutes (W10)
2 days a week - exercise video (EV)

Estimate = 550 minutes GOAL for July

F 01-Jul - 15 min (W10 + B 5x1) [15/550]
S 02-Jul - 10 min (W09 + B 1x1) [25/550]
S 03-Jul - no exercise
M 04-Jul - no exercise
T 05-Jul - 15 min walk [40/550]

I completed my aggressive (for me) goal of 1200 minutes last month...no reason I can't do it again, especially with one extra day in the month!

7/1 - 30 minute treadmill
7/2 - 40 minute treadmill
7/3 - 45 minute treadmill
7/4 - 55 minute treadmill 5 kettlebell

total minutes: 175/1200
