February Exercise Challenge!

[keenercam]

Aw. Thanks. This thread is inspiring me. And look at you 1215! Way to go! I'm determined to make my goal.

Thursday, Feb 23 - 40 minute Dance Party 2. I wasn't sure if this was going to be a good workout, but my heart rate was up between 130 and 144 the whole time. According to my cardiologist, my max heart rate right now is 138. Oops. I'll need to pay closer attention to my monitor next time. It was lots of fun though.

1101/1500

Great job, but don't overdo the heart rate. You are nearly at 75% of your goal minutes! Woohoo!

Feb. 17 - 40 min. strength (Pilates)
Feb. 22 - 55 min. cardio (Nordic Track and bike)

Doesn't look like I am going to make my goal this month.

But you've done 415 minutes of exercise this month and that's 415 more than a lot of people would have done. That is something to be proud of. AND you still have 5 more days to kick that up even a bit higher.

2/22 75 mins cross ramp and elliptical
2/23 60 mins; 30 cross ramp and 30 boot camp

Great job! You are nearly at 75%! Can't wait to change more colors in the first post.

Well, the only exercise I'll probably get today is walking through the airport terminal and from check-in to my villa at Saratoga Springs. Yep, I am off to Walt Disney World for the Princess Half-Marathon. I am excited AND nervous. I've done 2 full marathons and many half-marathons but my knee controls my destiny on this one. It swelled so much in January that it locked and I had to pull myself out of the WDW Half at the medical tent at mile 9. The medical personnel there were shocked I could walk at all when they saw how swollen my knee was. And the long incision from 2 surgeries ago was so spread that it looked like an overcooked hot dog. LOL! I am hoping to do much better this Sunday.

I will update everyone's numbers when I get back. I still haven't figured out how to move down on the edit post screen from my ipad so I can't do updates from it.

Have a great, ACTIVE weekend, everyone!

Hi guys! I popped onto this thread to see what it was all about. I'm on team Mickey for the BL challenge. You guys are awesome with the amount of exercise you are doing a month. I might have to try next month's challenge. Also, cam, it's the princess this weekend and you are participating? Good luck! You are awesome for competing in such an event. If anyone else on here is competing good luck to you too!

Saturday, Feb 25 - 27 minutes 30DS and 20 minutes stair stepper.

1148/1500

Lol. I realized that I've been logging the 30DS for 20 minutes when it is really 27 from warm up to cool down. I'm not going to change anything, but wanted to make a note to account for "extra" seven minutes logged.

But you're still movin' and shakin' when you can - and that counts!

Good job getting in minutes - tae bo is so hard for me!

Is it a fun workout? My kids have an xb360; I've been thinking about getting the Kinect "for them."
