July Exercise Challenge



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone!

I'm back and I'm in!!! Like Becky (hey girlfriend -- great to have you joining us :thumbup::smile::)), I'm recovering from surgery and my Dr. doesn't want me doing too much too soon, so I'm setting a very modest goal for myself this month, but look forward to rocking with the rest of you in the coming months!

I got a twenty minute walk in yesterday, today I'm shooting for 30 minutes. Have a great day everyone!!!

Treadmill today:

interval incline and speed

4 min warm-up

jogging the entire 41 minutes!

You know I have to make myself get on and I sort of drag my feet most days, but it feels so good when you are done!!! :thumbup:

I hope I'm not too late to join. I'm setting a pretty low goal for myself this month. Considering it's been, oh I dunno about 3 years since I've done any real exercise! So my goal is simply to work out 3x a week this month, but I am really shooting for more. I know that if I have to come and check in every day that I'll be accountable and get it done!

Today I swam 20 laps and walked for 30, so off to a good start for me! Already feeling a nice burst of energy from that too! I love this feeling!! :thumbup:

BTW you are all doing awesome! I can't believe some of the numbers you are putting up! VERY inspiring! keep up all the hard work!

Frangi, glad I've got my exercise buddy back! We'll both be back in full swing in no time.

I walked for 35 minutes today and I'm continuing to pick up the pace. Gotta get started on potato salad now. We're having a big bash today. Happy 4th to everyone!

Checking in and modifying my goal for the month.

3 mornings a week: Couch to 5k (that remains unchanged)

4 mornings a week: 45 minutes of walking

Originally, I reported that I would do the 3 mornings a week and walk every evening with my mom. She has proven to be an unreliable walking buddy (I'd never tell her that, though). So, I'd rather get my exercise in every morning on my own, and then if my mom wants to walk in the evening, it will just be added bonus, but I don't expect it more than 1 - 3 days a week.

Day three (and four, five, six) are swimming! Spending a long weekend in Phoenix by a friend's pool. With this heat, I am still trying to walk, but swimming is much more my style when I am melting!

=) So far, so good!

Hey Whosya! Great job on the 5K. You've turned into a super athlete.

I did another 35 minute walk this morning. I'm up to 3 mph!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
