    New community - Perfect. Struggling to keep the weight off - How about a 5 Min challenge??

    Hi - I am new to the community and the website.  I checked it out because I am always time crunched, and this looked like a great opportunity to get in shape with my schedule.  Now my friends say to help keep the weight off, muscle mass is critical....so who's in for a 5 Minute challenge?  I am thinking 3 to 4 5 minute workouts 3 times a week to get started.  Who's game??  I'm in!!

     We can probably even copy and paste the Fitness Trackers to show our progress.

    VB - I owe you 1.  Was hitting a wall getting some late work done (and had slacked on the workouts) - saw your post.  Then decided to take 5 a couple times.  Followed your lead.  Now I'm back at it.  The chest one seemed to actually work my neck harder.  I think I was using my head too much to stabilize on the ball.  Anyway, thanks for the lead.  Catch you Thursday for some legs and core?

    I had the same issue with the neck. Didn't know if that meant that I was doing it wrong or I just had a weak neck...haha. Anyway... Gonna do some Yoga tonight, and I am in for legs and core work tomorrow.

    I LOVE the 5 minute series.It's perfect for my short attention span. I do several of them a day. I like to sneak them in throughout the day when I am working from home. I do one while I wait for dinner to cook, or wait for the laundry.... anytime I have a few minutes to spare. I find them energizing. The thigh workout was one I hadn't tried before, but it was a great workout. Thanks!!

    OK...did the 5 minute thighs.  That's a good one alright.  The burn sneaks up on you.  Time to get back at it.  Lost some focus this week. Now time for some upper body - Neck & Shoulders +  Arms2.  Who's in??? Always tough to get started, but once you in - 3x5 is easy!
