  • Angela, yes welcome!!!
  • Well, another month's total to be added for me. I know that this may not be the best way to do it, but I enter my exercise into my diary each day and it just seems easier for me to add it all here at the end.

    A lot of this month's exercise, other than walking and jogging (treadmill), has been doing the Leslie Sansone DVDs - Walk/Jog (with jogging intervals) and Walk/Kick (with Kick Boxing intervals). I do them one after the other to get in a 60 min workout and I jog in between the two, during the cool down of the first one and the warm up of the second. That means that I am jogging for 12 minutes at once, which isn't too bad for someone who said she would NEVER jog. These are my favourite form of working out at the moment. I am still having one or two rest days a week, which is working out well, and I do up to 80 mins on other days, so it balances out.

    Anyway... my totals are...

    Personal Goal... 1560/1200, putting me 360 mins OVER my goal.

    Group Total... 12,997 + 1560 = 14,557

    Take care all,

    Zelma
  • I have been forgetting to add in my minutes! I won't total my own, because I know I am way under this month, but I might as well help the group along.

    Let's see . . . Friday - 60 minutes elliptical, Monday - 20 minutes walking, Tuesday - 30 elliptical and 30 trainer and then yesterday - 35 elliptical. Yesterday's elliptical was at hill level 7 - my highest yet. It completely wore me out, but it felt good to push myself.

    The group total is now 14,557 + 175 = 14,732
  • Did the walk to work thing again today.

    Personal Goal 835/800

    Group total - 12,997 + 20 = 13,017
  • 60 minute hike with my Mom this morning. I'll be back later with my gym time!

    13,017 + 60 = 13,077
  • Greetings lovely chicks! Poppin' in here with a last entry for this months goal.


    I am adding 120 of mine to groups 13,077 for a grand total of==== 13,197. Way to go gang!

    That gives me a personal total of 630 for the month of May passing my 400 goal by 230 min. YEAHHHH!



    KEEP ON MOVIN" CHICKIES
  • HI LADIES ~ ~ Surpassed my personal total; reached 770 minutes for the month of May doing mostly walking, chair aerobics, dancing, and hand weights.

    I think there was an error made back a bit; NANCY posted THE GROUP TOTAL as 14,732 above ... hope this straightens things out ~ ROSEBUD.

    + 20 for LILION = 14,752
    + 60 for KAYLEY = 14,812
    + 120 for SHADY = 14,932
    + 770 for ROSEBUD = 15,702
  • Thanks for fixing the error Rosebud.

    Group total 15,702 + 276 for me so far this week = 15,978 New Group Total
  • 40 mins weight training tonight. Brings my total to 100 for the day! I haven't done that in a LONG time, and I'm definately feeling it! Definately couldn't do that every day! lol.

    Already posted my earlier 60 mins....so....

    15,978 + 40 = 16,018

    My stats for the month:
    Cardio: 1,125 mins!
    Strength Training: 325 mins!
    Total: 1,450 mins! Yay!

    That works out to about 47 mins a day!

    Let's make June a killer month, ladies!
  • I did my 20 minutes today, so we are now up to...


    16,018 + 20 = 16,038
  • Rosebud -- Thanks for catching that error. I've actually been catching a number of errors all month from a number of us! (now that I can edit the posts I sometimes just do that...)

    I love it when we get over 16K in a month!!

    20 min for me. I took the dogs on a walk. Not the great elliptical workout I wanted to get in, but I made my goal!

    Group total ~ 16,038 + 20 = 16,058 min
  • Well, I didn't quite make it. BUT, I managed to do another 45 minutes before the month ended:

    5/30 15 minutes weights & personal step machine
    5/31 30 minutes weights & floor exercises

    Personal Goal: 900 + 45 (55 left)
    Group Total: 16058 + 45 = 16103
  • I need to add in about 4 hours' worth of exercise. I've been slacking in the posting department, but I've gotten in some exercise in that time. So, our total is 16103+240=16343 minutes.
