Remember that you are trying to lose 100lbs as a team by 14th Feb 2011, it seems a long way off but we all know that Turkey 'n' Tinsle season is just around the corner so please keep eachother motivated.
Each week I will set a mini challenge which will help you with your weight loss, if anyone has any suggestions please PM me.
Prizes will be awarded to each member of the team that has the biggest weight loss in total and there is also an individual prize for higest % of body weight lost.

PLEASE BE HONEST!!!! I am not asking for proof of weight or doctors notes, just play fair and report your weight honestly. After all, the biggest prize we can ever win is genuine weight loss and improved fitness :)

Good Luck everyone!!

Please copy and paste the following template to use in your updates. Many of us are on different time zones and have different weigh in days. You can adjust the chart for your own weigh in days but each member must weigh in on the morning of 14th Feb. (you may add heaviest and current pics if you like and then an end of challenge pic)

Goal weight Feb 14th - 199lbs (or lighter than Korrie in team MONTAGUE :))
Longterm goal weight - 166lbs

Mini goal weight in pink, actual weight in blue :)

Each team weighs around 1800lbs in total so that makes a team loss of 100lbs seem really easy considering we have around 3 and a half months to do it in! Lets keep it fresh and energetic on this board and kick the butts of TEAM MONTAGUE!

Good Luck everyone, Laura

WEEK ONE CHALLENGE!!!

The first one is an easy one to get us started......

This week I challenge you to try one new form of exercise that you haven't tried before. Maybe its borrowing a fitness DVD from the library, or taking a bilke ride around your local area, perhaps a few loops at your nearest ice rink? or finally giving the free online 200squat challenge a try? Whatever you choose please share your experience with your team.

How are you all getting on with the challenge? I have decided (against Montague advise!!!!) to try the Tabata Protocol as my challenge this week. I have been looking for new ways to do my cardio now that the snow is arrivng (I live in a ski resort!) and the evenings are drawing in.
My biggest struggle is staying off bread and sweets, how do some of you cope with these cravings?
 
Ugh, I ate McDonald's yesterday! I can't justify that. Bad, bad, bad. This challenge is really making me want to do my very best though for my team and myself. We can DO this! :D
 
Hey teammates, I've been away for the last three days and I just found out about the teams. Tomorrow I will post my numbers.

Good luck!

So, how about, to get us all working out as a team and thinking like a team, we create a team capulet playlist? Its kind of cool to think of us all striving to the same goal in our little corners of the World. Connected somehow.....

I will start,

Hips don't Lie - Shakira
Overkill - Men at Work
Everything just wonderful - Lily Allen
Genie in a bottle - Christina Aguilera

Ok so now you all figured I am a 12 year old girl due to my taste in music, please feel free to educate the rest of us with your 4 (or more) favourite work out songs!
 
Now, now Jericho... no playing dirty! I just drop kicked your cake over to your side of the fence. :biggrinjester:

Some fave workout music:

A little less conversation (JXL Remix)
Black or white (Michael J)
Stronger (Kanye West)
Disturbia (Rihanna)

That's just a a few. I have tons. I am lucky in that I have a rather large "Dance" playlist with a bunch of great songs.

So far so good with the challenge :)
 
Laura......not wishing to asist a Capulet BUT if you are going to have a go at the Tabata, I used Black Sabbath "Paranoid" for the high intensity intervals, and Alison Krauss "Down to the River to Pray" for the warm-up/warm down and rests between the high intensity intervals - by the time you do all 8 you will need somebody to pray for you because you wont have enough breath left to do it yourself! Found a great little free iPhone app that lets you plug in the duration of each interval and then choose which song you want to play - it then beeps a warning towards the end of each interval so you can either get ready to change intensity rather than clock watching.

Actually, rather than intervals, wouldn't you like a nice piece of cake to share with the rest of your team? ;)
