December Exercise Challenge

[m 'n c]

Ok I kinda dropped the ball in November. I was on a roll and the holidays got to me and man did I become lazy. So I'm trying to get back on track. Anyone want to join me this month? I know the Holidays will take up alot of time for us all so maybe we should make smaller goals and get ready for our January resolutions.

My goal is 12 workouts - no specifics this month. I just need to get to the gym and get some exercise in!

I am up for it also!! I will just stick with the walking for 2 miles 3x a week!!
Good luck to everyone!!

Thanks for posting! I was going to start a thread today because this is the worst month for me, so I need all the help & support I can get. What do you think about having the work out buddy again (like in August)? That really helped me. I'll be happy to monitor the list if we do it.

But if we don't, here's my pledge to all of you December Workouters--I will be realistic & say I will do the eliptical/free weights twice a week at least. Lots of distractions to eat bad & not work out this month...so the LEAST I can do is twice a week, right? I can do it!! I can! And I will!!

Whatever works for you Jen I'm willing to do. We can definetly do exercise buddies or we can pledge to check in and discuss things more regularly on here.

Would chat nights work for anyone? That is another option I've been tossing around. Maybe check in one night a week at a specific time or we can vote each week on when to have one?

Just wanted to pop in and let you all know...I will definitely be joining you all next month. ( I have to be realistic to myself, and wait till after the Holidays!:p ) Because BOY OH BOy, all of this baking and eating chocolate is going places I really don't want it to be. LOL :blush: So next month, new year, New Plan! See ya then!:D

I made it to the gym last night. It was pretty cold out and artificially warm in the gym but I made it 30 mins on the weights and 30 mins on the stair climber. :)

I did 45 minutes on the treadmill last night and my Ab Roller. We're calling today to see when Dick's is shipping our "joint Christmas gift," an elliptical, so that SG and I can start exercising together. :)

Oh that is a great present. I want a small home gym when I finally get a house.

Mike made a deal with me that if we (meaning I) went to work out this week and ate healthily then we could go get good sushi on Friday night (vs. kroger or wholefoods sushi) so I'm trying really hard to be good. I packed my lunch again today and I plan on gym-ing it tonight with 30 mins weights and 30 mins on this new stairclimber thing they have.
