  • 200 jumping jacks a day! come on I know you guys can do it. It's one of the easiest exercises to do. Just do 200 a day, everday, after your done eating for the day.

    Who wants to join me next week? 200 jumping jacks everyday about an hour before going to bed. Thats 1400 a week!

    join the challenge and do it

    PS: 200 too much? try 100 and get higher each night
  • Hmmm....I'm up for that!!!! I'll do mine tonight.
  • I could do that. My husband and kids may thing I have lost it, but on the other hand I bet my 9 yr old and 2 yr old may join me. this could be alot of fun. I never find time to get on my gazelle, I think I could get this in. Actually I think I will go start them right now. I will let you know how it goes.
  • I think I'll try this! It's something new to add variety to what we do!

  • woo hoo! Count me in.
  • Well no one laughed at me, my husband just said have fun. and my 9 yr old just said you are on your own there mom. ha-ha! Then I went downstairs and well I did 61, the backs of my legs went, I don't think so... lol So I folded a load of laundry and did 70 more. put the clothes away and did the remaining 70. When I accepted the challenge I seriously thought 200 jumping jacks what a breeze!, hopefully tonight I won't have to break them up. I never thought about what it does to the backs of your legs.
  • Sounds interesting,
    I'm sure my legs will protest as well,
  • I'm in for this week. Note to all fellow apartment dwellers - make sure you do them before people are sleeping, or you might get people knocking on your door...jumping jacks make a LOT of noise :-)
  • I'm totally in! I started this with my workout today. I did 150 (did 44, walked in place for a minute, 60, walked in place for a minute, then the remaining 46) so far, and plan to do the rest a bit later. Hopefully soon I can do all 200 at once!
  • OK! I'm going to do this! I will also probably have to break them up. I haven't done jumping jacks since high school gym class, but with some up beat music playing it could be fun!
  • Sounds like fun! I'm in.. I'll start with 100 and see how it goes.
  • lol sorry guys

    I meant this week. may 1st- may 7. It was sunday when I posted this. but i bet you guys knew what I meant

    I'm doing mine later today

    what I usually do is 100 straight at fast tempo, then i do some stretches and deep breaths and do the last 100. try making your arms go WAY up into the air and back way down. This works the tummy really nicely.
  • I'm afraid my belly flops too much to do any jumping jacks yet! How about if I do crunches instead?
  • HAHAHA. Funny NSV - started doing my jumping jacks, planned to do 100. At #13, my pants fell down. Guess I went down a size?

    Thought I'd share. Make sure you wear a belt and/or something that isn't going to fall off.
  • Mandalinn, that is TOO funny For sure that's a size down.
