Moving It In September - South Beach Exercise Challenge
:bike2::yoga::running::swim::lifter:
Fall is arriving this month ushering in all the scary food related holidays. Now is the time to make sure we have those healthy habits firmly in place. Exercise won't save us from bad food choices but it will help keep us on track and focused. So grab your sneakers, bike, or gym bag and join the challenge What's your exercise plan for the crisp September days? :dancer: This is a great place for experienced exercisers and newbies so whether your goal is 3000 minutes or 300 minutes if you are a Beacher please join us. Regular exercising is the key to turning exercise into a healthy habit. This is a great place to keep track and stay accountable. |
I've been struggling with balance in my life. With work and family obligations it just seems like exercise always gets left off the schedule. I am going on vacation this month though and that will be 8 whole days of biking, walking and kayaking. I'm going to go for 1500 minutes again even though I've fallen far below that all summer. Here's hoping the vacation week will balance out the long work days and I'll end the month with a net gain in exercise minutes and muscle!
*edited to a more realistic number for my current situation. Maybe if it's attainable I'll actually be less discouraged. Goal: 1500 minutes total so far: 1772m 1 2 3 4 - 60m walk 5 - 6 - 30m hike 7 8 9 10 11 - 40m bike ride 12 13 14 - 70m exercise bike 15 16 17 18 - 90m walk 19 - 120m walk, 30m bike ride 20- 210m walk (3/4 on sand), 97m bike ride 21 - 85m walk, 46m bike ride 22 - 210m walk 23 - 160m walk, 45m bike ride 24 - 160m walk 25 - 160m walk 26 - 120m walk 27 - 20m Wii step aerobics with riser 28 29 - 20m walk 30 |
My main goal is to keep some of the momentum I have developed this summer in terms of exercise. With school starting back up things get a bit hectic, so I really need to focus on getting my workouts in this month. I am aiming for 1,000 minutes.

I'm in again for this month. I guess I set my goal a little too low last month, so this month I'm bumping it up to 1800 minutes. :) My usual routine is treadmill only in the afternoon before I go to work and then treadmill and elliptical (and I've started throwing in a little stationary bike when I feel like it) after work in the morning.
