            Re: March Strength Challenge

            Is it ok to join this challenge now?
            I've been at the gym and do things like this so I thought it would be good to keep track of what I've been doing. How do I calculate this if I can join?
            Thanks for your help

              Sure join in Natalie. Just make an estimate on how many minutes you will work out for the rest of the month. If you do 90 minutes a week then you may b want to pledge around 300 minutes since there are about 3 1/2 week left. (90x3.3)

Legs: squats & lunges abs/core: planks (still yikes) bicycles, weighted side rotations, and incline lower leg pushes (targets those dreaded lower abs) Upper: flys, pushups, and chest pull downs

                            I hope that I just add my mins to the list in this challenge. My routine is similar every day with slight changes from time to time. I might ajust my goal as I do go to the gym so much but I'll not do it jut yet. Just in case.
