  • Welcome all... People are always welcome to join. If you join In March, you can jump in for the remaining 210 hours of 2012 that remain or you can join us now for just the month of March which would be about 21 hours.

    You can count in hours or minutes - whatever you prefer. 21 hours is 1860 minutes for March. 210 hours is 12600 minutes for what remains for the rest of the year.

    If you add that up, exercising 250 hours for the year works out to exercising 5 hours a week for 50 weeks of the year. Not too much, but not too little either.

    You decide what exercise you want to do. There is no passing judgement on what people consider exercise as movement is movement in my book!

    Good luck and welcome to March!
  • Well, I am on track. How I don't know as I feel I haven't been doing as much as I should. I guess it's because last year I was doing more than what I am doing now so that it feels like what I'm doing now is not enough.

    March 1 - nothing
    March 2 - one hour of BodyStep
  • Hi Melissa, I'm in I'll just record the activities, it'll be an hour minimum of whatever's recorded.

    Melissa, you're doing really well, and keeping very active, don't feel bad for not doing enough!

    In addition to this, I took up a challenge to commit to doing pushups vryday. I found another thread somewhere on this site for creative ways to get motivated! So, I put up(copied from this site!) on my status on fb that I will do 5 pushups for each like every day for a week!! 22 people liked it (friends find happiness in your misery!!)and I did 120 pushups each day... And to begin with... I hated doing even a single pushup!!
    At least this got me into a routine!! Good luck to all for march!!
