I really want to give this a go!!! Not going to say I will achieve all 150 squats ... Definitely a challenge for me.
Better get on ....I have a couple of days of catching up to do. x

I tried the sit ups today. I've hurt my neck doing it so I need to have a rethink!!

Any one have any exercise ideas on how to get rid of bingo wings? My arms need toning up

I'm doing my tins of beans and peas. 20 reps arms as straight as possible and lift from the side up to your ear. The straighter your arms the harder it is. It hurts too haha!!

Hello, sorry I have been without the internet. And my pc is about to give up.

But I don't really need the internet as I have been walking and walking. And I am fine with that. Will mix it up a bit this week.

I missed a day yesterday! It was my birthday and that's my excuse I will do something today, though tins are aching my arms! No pain no gain I suppose?!

 

[stellarsky]

What do you do with your tins Rosie? My arms are very much lacking in strength.

 

[Poppet12]

I do a few things to target arms! Tricep dips for a start- using a step or the sofa. Then I get the tins, start with them down by your side and raise your arms out to the sides, palms (and tins) facing down and repeat. It kind of looks like your flapping. Sounds easy- try it and see!
Then arms out to the sides, palms facing up, draw your elbows in to your hips and repeat. To me, this feels like it gets biceps but in a different way to bicep curls.
I try do 20 of each, in two lots of 10. The flapping one gets your shoulders/back fat too lol

Todays activity was a 5k run for me! I got 4 mins off my previous time so happy with that

 

[Trefoil]

Well done everyone. I went to yoga last night. Today I have attempted that hoop again. It may be getting a nickname soon.
I am going swimming today as the kids have lessons.

Whilst away I did hooping 2 out of the 4 days and so much walking that it totally counts across all 4 days.

Today so far I have done 5 squats with my kettle bell and 10 of the swings. The hoop is still in car roof box so I'll do that this evening!

 

[SarahMP]

Yesterday's steps. Home today so will catch up with people. It's also weigh in but it's dependant on when we get back.

 

[lickthelid]

Wow! I'd need a decimal point inbetween! Haha

 

[Poppet12]

Went to work with OH today and he worked me like a bloody donkey so I'm counting that as my exercise! And I have a hawthorn stuck in my finger :-(

 

[SarahMP]

We do so much walking when we go away somewhere, most of it pushing a pushchair. I don't know it'd that makes it harder or easier? But last night we saw Brian Adams and after walking around all day I was like finally we can sit down......the husband got us standing up seats. Eugh.

Anyway a good 2 nights away and look what happened in those 2 days.

A Fitbit tan line.

Going to weigh in tonight after 3 days woth of eating out and having a hotel breakfast both mornings. I made good choices with a few cheats and I'm hoping the extra walking covers the 'guess work' I did while away.
