Tami you are doing great! So how do we get others from the Galapagos trip to join us???

[SaltyAngel]

I’m in! 
 

I’ve already been working at it, as Covid has completely messed with my regular exercise. Since I’m in Canada, sometimes it’s hard to motivate myself to get outside and walk in the snow as well. But I’ve got my ice cleats and am zipping past people sliding around on the trails!

 

Here are my current goals:

 

everyday - 3 sets of 10 wall arm pushes (new to my routine)

twice a week minimum - yoga

3 to 4 days a week - minimum 10,000 steps. Unfortunately my work just doesn’t allow for everyday long walks.

 

Let’s go!

walked the dog, tread climber, 3 mins of planks, 3 set of 20 wall pushups, 4 sets of 25 core twists

Good job Tami!

 

A little birdie told me Pam and Sandra are IN!!!  I'll let them tell their plans!

Happy to hear we have more participants. I give the credit to Sandra as it was her idea. I am pretty sure these guys are still going to have to help us get on the boat, but being more fit will make that easier for them! 🤿

Here is my progress report for the past week

 

4 days of 10k plus steps, arm pushups done each day ( going to increase this to 3 reps of 20 per day), but I only did one yoga session, so I missed that one. 
 

how is everyone else doing?

 

cheers,

Sharon

Walking is the best thing for all of us!  I'm thinking I'll try to get steps to 10,000 and see how it feels!  Thanks for sharing! You're doing great!!

I'm glad she suggested it! Of course they will help but being as fit as possible will make EVERY aspect of the trip SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!!! Not to mention being a FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH!!!  And we all need that for sure!

Great! If not just recap as best you can manually! So excited to have another person joining the challenge!

I'm in.  I am starting easy to build good habits.

 

Goal:  4x per week I will:

1.  Walk on treadmill 20 mins

2.  Planks: 1 Minute of planks (3 x 20 seconds). I hate planks, but they are good for the core.

3.  20 wall pushups

Good job Tami!

Sandra and I are planning to add a little incentive to help motivate us to achieve our goals.  We plan to see who can lose the greatest % of body weight.    We are putting in approximately $2 per week in between now and the trip.  Since the trip is a little more than a year away, we figured we would round to $100.
