Weekly Challenge - March 25th - 31st

The challenge this week is to STRETCH!

When/if exercise, spend at least 5 minutes stretching post-exercise.

If no exercise in a given day, it is not possible to earn the weekly challenge points.

If you completed the challenge yesterday (Monday), or would have had the challenge been known, award yourself yesterday's points.

Keep working hard!

Weekly Challenge - March 18th-24th

Apologies for the late notice on this.  The focus this week is on your BACK!

Although this article was written with the tennis player in mind, it will serve as a resource to you (links to back exercises within):

The challenge is to spend 10 minutes of your day focused on strengthening your back.  Should you choose to attend my fitness class (MWF at noon), you will have met your goal for the day!

Leader Board!

Weekly Challenge - March 11th - 17th

THINK POSITIVELY!

Each day, write down 3 things that you are good at.

Each day, give 3 compliments.

Each night, think through (and share with a spouse?) 3 things that you that made you feel grateful on that given day.

Lastly, smile!  :)

Please ensure spreadsheets are current; I'll be updating the leaderboard early next week.

Weekly Challenge - March 4th-10th

Your challenge this week is TAKE 30:  Spend at least 30 minutes of the day by yourself to do what you enjoy.....read, workout, yoga, cook, etc.  No distractions....nor should television be the activity of choice (despite your potential enjoyment of).  Will make an exception for the occasional call of duty from children.

As part of this challenge, I would suggest you Power Down.  Place cell phones, computers, televisions, etc. at bay!
