Come on, Crazy Ates! Lets get moving!

This months goal is to get three exercise days per week, for a total of 12 days of exercise this month.

For those who made that goal last month and want to step it up a knotch, I challenge you to 20 days of exercise.

This is the kind of exercise that makes you break a sweat, gets your heart pumping, burns calories and tones those tushies!

(Be sure to consult your doctor before starting a new exercise program.)

Please post your name and exercise goals to this thread.

Walked another 30 minutes home again today. And don't worry, when I make it to onederland you will probably hear me yelling all the way from Redmond, OR. I weigh everyday and then average for the week, and then chart it using excel. For those of you who don't know, I am a chemistry teacher! It is all about the data. According to my data and scientific figurings, I should be in onederland no later than Nov. 13. I am going away for the weekend, so I am a little worried, but I promise to let EVERYONE and their dog know! Thanks for the encouragement.

What are the changes in the new workout at curves?

Curves has a new program which you can sign up for that will keep track of how hard you are working on each machine. It makes you push yourself to work as hard as you can. You get a little tag to scan at each machine as you go around the circuit and then the monitor will show you your reps and you do your best to keep the light at a solid green. Orange means you arent working to your goal and flashing green means you are over your goal. When you are done working out you can look at the computer to see how you did that day. Which muscles you worked the hardest, how many calories you burned and if you hit your goal overall. If you go over your goal it will bump it up for the next day or if you are under it will take you down. When you first sign up for it all your measurements and weight is taken again, along with your goals. All of this in entered into the computer to determine at what level you should be working. Since starting this I realized just how easy I was taking it before. It sure is worth it though.

40 minutes today.

45 min walking yesterday plus many trips up and down the stairs at the mall. Went yesterday afternoon to a helicopter show and added another 3 miles to the walk. Gotta keep it going !!!!!!

Hi Gang!

Sorry it took me so long to return to the board, but I have been traveling for the past nine days. I'm back now and doing fine.

I am pleased to report that I maintained my commitment to exercise while traveling. I took long walks whenever possible and I worked out in hotel gyms when there were no other, better options.

Yesterday, I took three flights and spent 13 hours in airports and on planes, and still managed to do a 30 minute, fast-paced, walk at the Miami airport -- which is a (surprisingly) good place to do a walk.

I am glad to see that everyone is doing so well :clap2::clap2::clap2:!!!!

Talk to you soon!
