March Exercise Challenge
Marching into March! Let's rock this!
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 will set a very modest goal of 600 minutes of intentional exercise in March.
10mar: (just spent a week out of town with hospitalized mom, so no exercise to speak of yet) 11mar: 20 min Classical Stretch w/Miranda Esmonde-White 12Mar: 20 min CS; 25 min exercise bike; 20 more min exercise bike; 35 min walk; 25 more min bike 13Mar: 25 min exercise bike; 10 min walk 14Mar: 20 min bike; 30 min walk 15mar: 25 min walk 16Mar: 35 min walk 28Mar: 35 min walk (been on exercise restriction for dental procedure) 30Mar: 40 min walk 31Mar: 35 min walk total minutes: 400 |
Since I met my goal of 1200 minutes including 20 strength-training and stretching routines in February AND
Since March is a longer month, I'm going to increase my goal by a little bit:
|
GardenerJoy February's Exercise challenge was very helpful for me. I was much more consistent with my exercise. For March, I will be exercising daily, alternating between strength and cardio, with a once a week break (probably on Fridays).
3/1 - 30 mins elliptical 3/2 - 9,500 steps 3/3 - Rest Day 3/4 - Arms Strength 3/5 - Abs and cardio 3/6 - Lower body strength and cardio 3/7 - Rest Day 3/9 - Arm Strength and Cardio 3/10 - 30 min walk and 10,000 steps for the day 3/11 - none 3/12 - 2.8 mile walk around nearby lake and 10,000 steps for the day 3/13 - 30 mins Arm Strength and Elliptical 3/15 - 30 mins Ab Strength and Elliptical 3/16 - Arms and Legs Strength |
My goal is not high but I am newly back to exercise. So 15 min a day 3 days a week which makes 210 min for me if I count 2 for this week. Not sure how to record but I will figure it out LOL Thanks for letting me join
Week of 3/1 -- 31 minutes Week of 3/6 Monday 32 min (fitness blender 4 videos), Wed 30 min (fitness blender 4 video) Friday 27 min (fitness blender 3 video)-over weekly goal total min week one and two so far 120min completed 1/2 way to goal Week of 3/13 Week of 3/20 Week of 3/27 |
I'm going to be brave and increase my goal from 600 to 800 minutes a month. For me, that means instead of averaging a 30 minute workout 5X a week, upping to a 40 minute workout 5X a week. Hopefully my majority of minutes will not be shoveling!!
March 01 - 33 min. Shelly Dose cardio/light weights = 33 min. |
My goal is working out 27 times. For this challenge, a workout = doing one of my workout dvd's.
01: ✅ 02: ✅ 03: ✅ 04: ✅ 05: ✅ 06: 07: 08: 09: 10: For now, I'll stop at 10 because 27 looks too initimidating this early in. :lol: |
Hi ladies :wave: Congratulations to everyone on last months goals met and progress and wishing everyone a successful and healthy new month!
joy thanks for our brand new month and I am ready dear lady to march into march! :) I am setting a goal of 1200 this month. I cross train, my regiments will pretty much consist of walking, WII step, dvd's of workouts, weight lifting, calisthenics, stretch, etc. Have a super day everyone! March.1-115 minutes (60 min. walk, 20 min. LS dvd, 20 min. WII step, 15 min. upper bod strength training..including some oblique work) |
ETA - I've decided to take a break from officially "dieting" so I won't be participating this month. I intend to keep exercising and eating with moderation, but I don't want to focus on counting and tracking. Good luck to you all with your goals.
I'm going to try and stretch myself a bit. Going for 1500 exercise minutes in March TOTAL: 45 / 1500 03/01/17 - 45 minutes (BBB1) |
I'm going to be brave and increase my goal from 600 to 800 minutes a month.

Joy Can I ask a big favor? I am so sorry to put you to extra work but again I have been debating my workouts. THings are going to get crazy busy for me very soon so this is the month for me to crank! I would like to set a goal of 1400 minutes, I have to do Leslie Samsone workout at least 3x a week and increase my steps from last months average! Again, I so apologize for any inconvenience and as always, I thank you for the time and all that you do!
I am concerned that April ,or sooner, will get so extremely busy for me that I wont be able to hold up with formal exercise, and thus, no time like the present! With that being said, onto another workout I go! lol Thank you again so much! Let's keep it rocking ladies :carrot::carrot: |
March Goal: 1400 minutes, Leslie Samsone tape at least 3x a week, increase steps over last month!
March.1-115 minutes (60 min. walk, 20 min. LS dvd, 20 min. WII step, 15 min. upper bod strength training..including some oblique work,14,364 step) March.2-85 minutes (Leslie Samsone part 2 and 3, WII adv. step a 15 min.) |
I'ld like to join this challenge. March goals will focus on core and getting my body ready to move for the day. Goal is a minimum of 600 situps and 600 squats.:carrot:
600 squats : 30+30+100+20=180 completed 600 situps : 30+30+15+45+30=150 completed Good luck everyone! |
Still working on it ladies! Happy day 3 and weekend! COngrats to all of our newcomers and to our new month for all of us! :carrot:

My goal is to walk at least 60 minutes a day (everyday), 45 minutes of zumba (4 x a week), and 30 minutes of cycling (4 x a week) and mix in 30 minutes of weights 4 (4 times a week). Woohooo! Been doing this for the past 5 weeks and went from a size 12 to a size 8. Feels so good that I dont have to buy an xl anymore. I used to cry in the fitting room because the clothes wouldnt fit me and now, I cry because I cant believe im shrinking. |
