I'm joining this late, but I actually have my exercise logged on myfitnesspal! I'm sitting at just over 8 hours for the month. I need to step it up! There have been days when I've only been able to fit in 20 mins of light exercise or days we've been out of town. Time to get to it! :)

Hi all,

I haven't been here for weeks ... I've been stressed .... I have a promotion .... but it is a heap more work and stress ...

I've kept up exercising(but not nearly as much as I would like - 3-4 times a week at the most) but I'm not tracking ... and as for food .... I don't want to even think about it ...

So I'm starting again fresh ...

March 17th - Personal Training - Core work - 60 Minutes
March 18th - Cardio - 30 mins Elliptical, 20 mins Treadmill

Hope all is well with everyone ...

Melissa Yes, our gym has been mixing it up too, I'm mega excited to start this release from the beginning, bring it on! Our instructor is quite impressed with it, she says the squat track is shorter than normal, the back track is a killer, and the abs is quite different from normal, BRING IT ON!!!

ErBear 03-20-2012 10:05 AM

According to myfitnesspal, I've done 624 mins or 12.1 hours so far this month!

This is only cardio though. I don't ever time weights and stuff since I don't wear my heart rate monitor... I need to start doing that next month!

Today was a tough one for some reason, but I powered through it. I usually do BodyPump on Saturday, but missed up signing up for it on time, so did BodyStep.

I wish we had more of the 'Body' TMs at our gym Melissa, I'd love to mix it up more! I'm making yet another effort at starting my jogging career tomorrow, hoping this challenge will help me to keep on track this time!!!!

berryblondeboys 03-24-2012 02:38 PM

They have BodyVive, BodyStep and BodyPump at my gyms. I haven't tried the BodyVive. There's more classes I think, but for some reason they aren't offered.

takingcontrol 03-24-2012 02:44 PM

There are quite a few I think. We have Pump and Attack (but attack is only on twice a week when I can't make it) I've also heard of Combat, and then RPM which Les Mills fans won't let me say is the same as Spinning!

What is Vive? Never heard of that one!

I'd like to join!
 
Hello Melissa and all. I would like to join this group. I feel, exercise, is the most important piece in my journey. It helps me with A LOT of things, not just losing weight.;) I will commit to 21 hours for the remainder of March. Thanks.
March 25th: 60 minutes; walking and running (mostly walking)
20 minutes; weight training

Thanks again for the support!
