Challenges With The Challenge
As with any new routine, obstacles are to be expected, externally and internally—that’s WHY it’s called a Challenge. And Week 1 was definitely a challenging week for the Team.
The goal of the Power-Up Fitness Challenge is to complete 5 Daily Workouts (You can’t double-up in a day to make them up. We’re looking for five days of activity.) This goal proved to be difficult for the Team:
But, as 
Power-Up Fitness Challenge Team:
Onwards And UPwards!
Today kicks off Week 2 of the 6 Week Power-Up Fitness Challenge! Your Week 2 investment of .5 SBD is due TODAY and will be held for you as incentive to meet your goal. All you need to do is follow-through with YOUR COMMITTMENT to workout 5 days this week.
Complete ANY workout you choose. Make it simple if you’re short on time. Break up workouts throughout the day during breaks from work. For example, do push-ups EVERY time you use the restroom or 20 Jumping Jacks EVERY time you think a negative thought (that might be A LOT of pushups, but will help you to stop thinking negatively).
What You Need To Do
This goal IS achievable. The key is to PLAN your workouts and STICK TO YOUR PLAN. We’re also developing character by committing to a goal and following through with what we say we’ll do.

At the end of the week, if you meet the goal your 0.5 SBD goes into YOUR “bank” to be returned to you at the end of the Challenge. If not, it goes into the “Team Pot” to be used as a prize pool for the Most Inspiring “Results” post at the end of the Challenge (as voted on by me).
Let’s Do This
I’m excited to see what we do this week as a Team. Together we can achieve our goals. I’m committing to add duration to my workouts this week. What are YOU planning to achieve?
