Challenge in between for 1/18-1/21

Great class last night!! You guys did amazing! I love the fitness journals already, it's fun seeing you all asking the others "what did you get on this?" and then pushing to match or beat it! While its not about competing with others, that can make it fun so I'm all for it! The main purpose of your fitness journal is the following:

1. Log how many repetitions/how much weight you get at each station during class.
2. Log any workouts you do outside of class
3. Log what you eat (I'm not a nutritionist but could help point out areas of needed improvement if you find yourself stuck)
4. Log any thoughts, advice, questions...etc. 

This is your fitness JOURNAL! I am a firm believer in journals. It allows you to look back at raw, unfiltered thoughts, emotions, and progress. Sometimes it's hard to see changes from day to day, but when you record it and look back at it from a distance, you see the changes! That's why I also encourage taking progress photos! 

So the next challenge in between is to:

1. Drink half your weight in ounces of water each day. For example if you weigh 150...divide that by 2, and you have 75. So drink 75 ounces of water in a day. The average water bottle is 20 ounces, so just drink 4 of those in a days time and you're good. 

2. 30 seconds of mountain climbers, straight into 30 seconds of bicycle crunches, straight into 30 seconds of jumping jacks.  (Do this 4 times through, trying to take little to no rest)

Log what time you do this, note how difficult it was for you, and how long it took you to complete it 4 times through counting your resting time. 

Have a blessed day! Comment with any thoughts or questions!
