September Hula Hoop and Jump Rope Challenge!

[Alexa]

Hey everyone,

Sorry I'm a little late with this one.

Here is the deal:

Bored of the gym - all that serious slogging away on the treadmill? Want to go back to those carefree days of childhood when exercise was just like playing?

Want an exercise you can even do inside if you don't mind breaking lamps and family members laughing at you?

Please note you don't have to do both if you don't want to!

NB skipping can be tough on the knees, especially if you still have a lot of weight to lose, so please be careful to wear good quality trainers to mimise impact, try a softer surface and stop if it hurts!

NB Hula hooping can be tough on your dignity. Please only attempt it with a silly grin on your face.

How to sign up:
1) Copy and paste your name onto the list in the post below this one
2) State your MONTHLY jump rope minutes goal like this JR 5/20 IF DOING
4) State your MONTHLY hula-hooping minutes goal as HH 5/20 IF DOING
3) Report as often as you like by updating the ENTIRE list

Who's in for September?

Well, it's late and stuff... and I'm not home... but I'll be in the last ten days of Sep. So let's say I'll do 100 min of HH, from Sep 20th till the end of the month.

Re: September Hula Hoop and Jump Rope Challenge!

My first 20 min of hula in months... Probably done because I have the technique, because my muscles were so no listening me. I hope no one will make me laugh tomorrow, my muscles will be too sore

*Alexa* JR 16/20 * HH 0/15
Caramella HH 42/60
Georgiana HH 20/100

BTW, I also did the username change.

Re: September Hula Hoop and Jump Rope Challenge!

Wow Georgiana, I couldn't do 20 mins - you'll be at goal in no time.

Try and think sad thoughts tommorrow - lol, not really, just wear something tight to keep your sides in

LOL

Another 20 min today, and no soreness after yesterday! I guess hula hooping explains why cheats make me gain 0.000001 inches on my waist and 1000000 on my thighs

Re: September Hula Hoop and Jump Rope Challenge!

Wow 20 minutes in one shot? I'd totally be sore too!

I did 10 today myself
