Wk 2 Day 2: No Excuse Exercise Challenge

Hi All GOAL: 1 HOUR Elliptical @ higher intensity & 30 minutes walking, 4 days this week. PROGRESS: Day 1: I pushed myself last night. I actually did the elliptical for 60 minutes at a higher intensity. I wanted to die, but now I felt soooo good. Normally, I would stay at a resistance of 1 or 2, but tonight I got as high as 9. The average was 6, which I thought was hard until I did the 9. After that the 6 felt good. LOL I burned 966.8 calories and did 2989 revs. For every rev, I just felt like the fat was melting from my thighs. I also walked for 30 minutes earlier in the day. I don't know what I'm going to do today, but I'll let you know tomorrow. Shanell

Hi everyone! I am apologizing for not beginning the challenge last week. My mother who lives 2 1/2 hours away, broke her arm 3 weeks ago. She called Sunday night and pleaded for me to go home to help her with household things/doctor appts, etc and I went Monday afternoon. I didn't exercise, but I was busy...lol. I got home Friday evening and caught up on housework and the endless mountains of laundry. Soooo, Monday was my first day and I went with a friend and her grandkids(ages 2 &4) to a State Park.. we played in the water, on the playground equipment and even hiked a little. Today is Day 2 for me: I had lunch and am going to put in a Calenetics tape in about 30 minutes after my lunch settles! Good luck everybody and again, I'm sorry I wimped out last week.
