Blue Team Week 1 Challenge
No details yet, I just want to ask that we all go ahead and post our goal for this week. In minutes, please. For example I intend to exercise ____ number of minutes this week. The week will be Monday-Sunday.
Keep in mind the following reccomendation if you are just starting an exercise plan:
The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends that all healthy adults ages 18-65 should perform at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise 5 days a week. (150 minutes)
