Roll Call February 2011 Exercise Challenge!!!
How much do you want to exercise a month?
How can you push yourself out that door when the last thing you want to do is go to the gym?
Easy - Challenge yourself!!!
Pick a goal and work towards it!!!
What is exercise you ask?
It is whatever you do over and above your normal everyday activity. If you start taking the stairs instead of the elevator due to your wanting to improve your health this is exercise - if you park further from the door and walk extra - this is exercise. However if your work requires you to be on your feet running around all day - this is lifestyle and not exercise and should be added to your "activity level" in your account. I think its important for you to be honest with yourself so you will truly get the benefit of this challenge.
Some fresh sites on where to look to get some guidance and ideas for working out:
Simple ideas and inspirations for adding exercise and activity to your day
Sign ups always open -- do not post a goal until you have actually worked out!!
Please post in the following format - accumulated time worked out/ goal
it is your responsibility to keep track of your totals the timekeepers can not do this for you- also post new post and don't update an older post as the timekeepers work from last post to the post of the last person who updated.

You're the only one ahead of me, wanna race?
415 + 160 = 575
A strained calf muscle prevented an intensive workout today ... but I'm stubborn and did a light one anyway. I also went shopping and had to park a mile away ... okay, not really, but it certainly felt like it at the time. I think 160 is great for today!
ooo now animaillluver is ahead of me too, I'll have to catch up to you guys ![]()
51 minute walk +322=373
I DO wanna race...warm-up running and weightlifting:
330+10+60=400
187/1100
270/1250
I was really sore today from doing weights yesterday (and probably from bowling too). I need to figure out some good stretches for my upper body after weights!
