Let's get it going for APRIL! Get healthy, we'd be fools not to treat our bodies well!

Set your own fitness goals.
You can join at ANY time.

[instructions]
1. Post a reply in this forum with your goals.
2. Write down all the dates of February so you can keep on track with your goal (or add days as the month progresses).
3. EDIT your post everyday/or when you have the chance with your progress.
4. The numbers can be minutes of exercise, calories burned, anyway to want to keep track of your workouts. You can also use icons to note that you have done an exercise or goal for the day

Good Luck! *post borrowed from jazzang
