April Exercise Challenge

Ok, I had to start one of these.:thumbup: I know it's not quite April, but with it snowing here, I had to at least have April thoughts.

Let's keep up the great work and see the results coming.

Me personally, I want to be below 270 before softball starts at the end of the month. Shooting for 267-268

I'm def in...I'd like to be 140 by months end; have a feeling these last 23lbs are going to take forever...Sign me UP!!

SNOW???? - Oh I so don't miss the cold:)

Okay, I'm committing to at least 20 hours of exercise in April...I really trying to step it up from last month. I also have a goal to get 177 by May 1. Good luck everyone.

I'm committing to at least 20 hours of exercise in April...I just order the AB Rocket, looking forward to it getting here. Also walking the track and climbing the stair at the high school football field, and doing the bike at night. I also have a weight goal of getting to 200 by May 8th, going on vacation then. Good luck everyone.

Ok, so last night (I know, last night of March, but I'm putting it here:biggrin:), I did my upper body workout. Went real good, 11 rep circuits per exercise. This morning was back on elliptical for 65 minutes, 1103 calories and 5.36 miles. Back in tonight for lower body and 11 rep circuits.

Hope all is going well for you guys and your workout goals so far.

I was on elliptical this morning and did 60minute and the darn machine kicked me off...lol but only burn 845cal. I think if you run it on default it will only do 60min (actually was 58min and 2min cool down) then it shut off. I usually do 35min elliptical and then 30min treadmill but I wasnt that tired today and I also had a good view :lol:

Ceradad: one of these days ill catch up to you... lol

OK, I am in. I want to be down to 200 by the end of April :blush:

I plan on doing 20 hours cardio and once I am released (mid April) weight lifting 2x's a week.

So there's no "exercise police" here? First time signing up - I thought there might be a set challenge of time etc...Whosya, going to keep me in check????...LOL

Right now thru the first of May I'm in a twice a wk Boot Camp w/trainer. No idea what I'll be doing till that day comes...BTW it's an A$$ whip.

3/4 days I'm doing hard cardio & weight training or core exercises set by the man that whips my butt.

Not sure of any additional info to throw out - advise welcomed..:blush:

Hey all. I am in too. I have been going strong since surgery. For April, I will walk 6 days/week until April 17th (6 weeks post op visit and possible 1st fill.) At that point I hope to get the OK to start running, again. If that happens, I will re-start the Couch to 5K program with walking or elliptical in between, maintain 6 days/week.

I'm in. Even though I was banded 8 months ago, I only recently found and joined this web site. I did not start exercising until January 08 but have consistently done low intensity aerobics since then. I plan to get in 18 hours of aerobic activity (walking) and 8 hours of resistance training. We'll see.....:thumbup:

Sorry, no workout police, just lots of encouragement from those on here.

As for me, as I said yesterday, last night was lower body circuit training. This morning, I had a chiro appt, so I was able to get extra cardio in. Did 65 minutes on elliptical for 5.33 miles and 1085 calories. Then, did another 65 on the elliptical doing interval training. Did 5.44 miles and 1150 calories. Sweating bullets the whole time.:wink_smile:

sounds like a perfect place!!!

yesterday - worked out w/trainer:

40min spin class

ab/squat/lunge - core exercises 20min

cooled off w/a 15min walk on treadmill

today - wed is normally a day off for me from the gym... i do work on our ranch most days, and today i'll mow about 10acres & clear the barn out, throw down some hay & walk about w/the dogs.

I'm in! I just joined my local YMCA today and I go for my orientation tomorrow morning, I'm soooo excited. So far, I've lost pretty consistantly without exercise, but the weight loss has really slowed down for me. I am going to shoot for 24 hours for the month of April. Good luck everyone!
