Day 6 of the 30-day yoga program that I'm doing was a HIIT workout. Who knew you could do HIIT with yoga? I don't imagine it was as intense as when using other methods, but it definitely got my heart rate up and used lots of muscles.

Gardenerjoy, belated CONGRATS on accomplishing the 'easiest' of your goals! You are really a shining star for us to follow

I have been having a hard time keeping to my very easy goal. I caught a cold on Dec. 17th and I am STILL stuffed up/running nose/cough/goop/sinuses/teeth pressure. I'm pretty sure it's a sinus infection at this point. I will give it a couple more days and then see a doctor/urgent care facility.

I have not been able to do ANY non-essential workouts! Just shoveling/snow throwing. But I will doggedly still add it to my list.

VermontMom: Hope you're feeling better soon! I think we should be giving ourselves credit for our January victories, hollow as they may seem. So, here's our list:

etherbunny: 5 days/week
gardenerjoy: 1300 minutes, 8x stretch, 8x ST
Tabbycat: 900 minutes
VermontMom: 600 minutes

I tried Day 8 of the 30-day yoga program that I'm doing and it was way too challenging. So, I went back to Day 1, which is challenging enough. I think I'll repeat the first week a couple of times until I'm less shaky in the poses and, then, tackle Day 8 again. I am feeling stronger. That was a New Year's goal, so that's good! And, we're only three weeks in. I don't have to be in a rush about this. Avoiding injuries is the fastest path to getting stronger.

January goal: 1300 minutes, including 8x stretch + 8x ST
