30 Day Challenge ... Check in

So the 30 day challenge is now over! How did everyone do???
***
I must admit I did very well until Memorial Day Weekend hit! I'm blaming it on the holiday and camping! You can't hardly expect to do exercising in the camper! Although I should have after eating all that yummy food!
***
So I'm hoping to get back into the swing of things... I'm not sure 30 days made it a habit but it definitely was a good start! 15 minutes shouldn't be that hard to find but sometimes it just is!
**
I'm looking forward to a little warmer weather so we can maybe get in our pool, it's such good exercise! We finally got the cover off and plenty of chemicals in it. Within a couple days I think we could swim... that is if the weather would ever get above 72 degrees!!
Anyone else ready to do some swimming???

30 Day Challenge ... Check in

Could it be Tuesday again????
Well I've been able to get my workout in everyday! I skipped Sunday of course but all the other days I was able to do some kind of workout. I would have to admit that a couple of the days I only got my sit ups in, but that's the area I need the most work!
**
Yesterday we tromped through the woods for 2 hours mushroom hunting, so I'd say I got a little extra workout in then! More on that later!
**
So check in! Did you get your workout in this week.

30 Day Challenge ... Check in

So how's everyone doing??? Are you sore??
***
I did my workout hard for Tues, Wed, and Thurs. By Friday I was hurting pretty bad!After working outside in the garden and building a new flower bed including moving lots of rocks, I was whipped. So I skipped Friday and gave my body a rest!
I started back at it Saturday and Monday...
***
I drank at least 70 oz. of water everyday,
so I get a gold star for that one!!!
***
I'm hopeful that I won't be sore this week and can continue everyday! I'm loving blogging about this because there were several daysI know I wouldn't have done my workout if I wasn't!
***
So there you have it my "mostly" successes!!!

The 30 Day Challenge


Not that I need a new Challenge, I don't, but what I do need is exercise! We bought an exercise machine back in November and I haven't touched it since January. BLAH!!!
***
Well that is about to change because I'm starting the 30 day challenge! And as I've said before if I blog about it, I will actually do it. You awesome readers MOTIVATE ME!!! I love you for that!

***
I chose 30 days because they say if you do something for 30 days it becomes habit! I'm hoping this is true and works for me! I figure 30 days puts us to the end of May which officially kicks off the Midwest Summer Season!!!

**
So if you would like to join me here's our challenge...
1. Exercise Daily-- EVERY DAY! -- change your routine to work different muscles. Do what ever works for you.
**
2. Drink 8-10 glasses of water EVERYDAY -- I used to do such a great job at this but I fell off the ban wagon once again!
**
Here's my projected daily plan...
1. Stretch - very important -- don't forget
2. 50 - 75 side to side crunchers
3. 50 - 75 crunchers
4. Weight machine
5. Stretch
I figure this is only a 10-15 min. workout.
I know I can find 10-15 min. per day to exercise...it's just a matter of actually doing it instead of walking right by the machine and finding my seat on the couch!!!!
**

You make your plan to fit you. Anything is better than nothing, right???
You also might want take some body measurements if your curious of your progress!
Take Sundays off to rest your body!
