My Fitness Challenge Week 4

We've made it to week 4!
When I first began this fitness challenge, the purpose was to force motivate myself to become more active. Now that it is week 4, working out or doing stretches before bed has become a habit for me, and it is not so bothersome anymore. So I hope that your experience with this challenge has been a positive one. Also, this will be the last week of the My Fitness challenge (but if you guys want me to continue please let me know ASAP by commenting below or writing on the Facebook page: Affordable Appearance Blog, or through twitter @tiaj42)
Here are this week's exercises:
25 squats
1:00 Oblique Twists
50 Calf Raises
25 Sit ups
Wall Sits (according to the picture)
25 Squats


Feel free to add any other exercises that you want.
Have fun and be healthy!

My fitness Challenge:Week 3

Hey everyone, I hope you all are well.
I had my wisdom teeth removed (all four) so my dentist said to refrain from physical activity. That combined with the fact that I haven't really eaten in a while plus the painkillers and swelling has made me weak, but hopefully I'll be feeling better soon.
But this does not mean you should not continue working out so I came up with this week's exercises.
Also if you are continuing the Wall Sit Challenge (good for you!!) remember we are two days behind so we'd be starting on April 11th.

Ok, now on to the exercises:
25 Squats
25 Sit ups
40 Leg Lifts
15 bird dogs
Wall sit (corresponds with wall sit challenge)
25 squats
30 Oblique twists
*If there is an exercise you are clueless about, you can use Youtube to show you how to do it.

Have fun and work hard!

My Fitness Challenge: Week 2

Welcome to Week 2 of my Fitness Challenge. Before we start, I have a confession: I missed two days last week because homework has been piling up (only 11 more weeks of school left!), but I'm ready to get started this week. Some thing I noticed was that there wasn't a good balance between abs and lower body, so this week should provide more balance.
With that said here is this weeks workout routine (in the order they will be done):
20 Squats
20 Sit Ups
1 min Wall Sit
45 Second Plank
20 Sumo Squats
30 Second Mountain Climbers

P.S. Check out this Wall sit Challenge I found and I will pretend today is April 6th, then move along.
If you want to do this with me like on Facebook or Follow me on twitter because I will be sending reminders of how long to do each wall sit along with a reminder to do your exercises.

Introducing MY Fitness Challenge

Hey everyone,
It is the beginning of a new month and my birthday is tomorrow, so I thought I would do something special this month. I enjoyed last month's "better me" challenge and I thought I'd do another one that's similar, but this one focuses on the body. Yes, this will be a fitness challenge. I'm pretty sure you have seen the 30 day sit up and squat challenge, but I looked at those and while they seem like a good idea, I know I will not have the time to be doing 250 squats in one day (at least not now, who know maybe I will later on) so I modified them. This week I will be doing a "warm up" exercise everyday, and next week I'll probable my modified versions of the sit up and squat challenges.
So this week's exercise will consist of (in the order that I will do them):

20 Squats
30 Lunges
40 Calf raises
50 second wall sit
50 jumping jacks
50 second wall sit
40 sumo squats
30 leg raises
20 squats
15 sit ups
