Weekly Sprints

Good Morning Everyone!!

For the month of December we are going to do 3 weekly challenges called the “Weekly Sprint”.  Each challenge will start on Monday and end on Sunday evening.  There will be one winner at the end of each week who will receive a $25 Amazon gift card.  Here are the challenges:

Weekly Sprint #1 – Cardio Challenge – Starts TODAY!!  12/01/2014 – 12/07/2014

Your cardio will be measured by minutes.  The participant who has the most cardio minutes for the week, WINS!

  1. Choose your cardio: walking, jogging, running, cycling, swimming, ARC trainer, elliptical, boxing, zumba or cardio DVD…you choose, it just needs to be something you make time for each day.  A circuit training class will count for 20min of cardio and a HIIT class will count for 15min of cardio.
  2. Email me TODAY to enter the Cardio Challenge 🙂
  3. Keep track of your cardio minutes for the week and email me your results on Monday, December 8th in the morning.  The winner will be announced before the end of the work day.

Weekly Sprint #2 – Plank Challenge – 12/08/2014 – 12/14/2014

Your planks will be measured by total planking minutes for the week.  For example, if you plank for 1min, 4x throughout the day, that will count as 4min towards your total planking minutes for the week.  The participant with the most amount of planking minutes at the end of the week, WINS!!

  1. Your planks should be performed on your toes and either you elbows or hands for a straight arm plank.  If you are new to planking, you may start out on your knees for a modified plank until you become strong enough to plank on your toes.
