Wk 5 challenges!

Alright - week 5 already!! PHEW!! It's FLYING by! Here are the new challenges for this week (thanks for the suggestions!!)

OP: As usual 10 pts/day that you spend OP

MOIE: 1pt/minute of intentional exercise + 10pts/each day you complete a strength session of at least 20 minutes

Fitness Challenge: (25) Lots of us have a tough time working out in the absence of equipment/a gym and let's be honest, when you travel or are working out at home sometimes you don't get those luxuries...it's incredibly important that you know how to get your heart rate going and sweat flowing on your own. This week you get 15 pts for developing and posting to your team a 20 minute workout that you can do WITHOUT any equipment that can't be found in/around your house (for example, broomsticks/soup cans/chairs/the playground down the street are all okay to use - just no weights, dvds etc). An extra 5pts for each time you complete your workout (up to a max of 10pts)

Nutrition Challenge: (25) Last week people seemed to really benefit from getting new breakfast ideas - so I think maybe getting some new dinner ideas would be VERY helpful...especially for those of us in "food ruts" who are getting tired of our roster of dinners. 3pts for everyday you post your OP dinner to your team and a bonus 4 if you do it every day - (it doesn't have to be posted every day - just by the end of the week make sure you've told us the 7 dinners you had). Also, last week I didn't specify this but from my thread spying I realize that although some ppl were posting their brekkies, sometimes they weren't OP (i.e. sugary granola bars, a couple cake-like items, etc). So for this week post your dinners, but you only get the 3pts/day if you dinner is OP! I know...I'm tough stuff!

Lifestyle challenge: We are getting to know each other pretty well by this point - and although sometimes we are our biggest critics, we are the biggest fans of eachother. Every day post at least 1 positive thing you admire about one of your teammates (again, it doesn't have to be EVERY day - just have a total of at least 7 posts) - 25pts if you have at least 7 positives for your teammates

BONUS: (25) you know the deal.....stick with your exercise...keep doing it every day! Are you getting stronger...are you noticing muscles that weren't there before?? Let me know how it's going! I hope you're finding that you're getting something out of this!
