If you follow me on Facebook, you probably see that every month I run a 21-day challenge/accountability group for anyone trying to reach a health or fitness goal (you can read some testimonials). Although I describe these challenge groups on my website, a lot of people still aren't really sure what a challenge group is. Just last month, I had someone finally ask me what challenge groups are all about, and it turns out it was EXACTLY what she needed to get out of her fitness rut. Today I kicked off a new challenge group, but my August challenge group was one of the best ones I've had so far (check out some of the results below)! Here are some clips of posts and insights from the group - doesn't this sound like something that would help YOU meet a health or fitness goal?
"I still feel weird when i don't check in... did PiYo sweat today. Going to the beach for the next three days and have my sneakers, workout clothes and T25 packed!!"
"My workouts were easier near the end."
"I'm ecstatic with what only 21 days has done. All numbers are down from start."
"Overall happy with results and excited to see where the numbers are once I finish the full 8 weeks of PiYo."
"Gained a lot of energy though and definitely motivated by all of the posts!"
"I feel better overall, more energy and tighter."
"I feel so much more energized, T25 is definitely doable even when you are extremely busy."
"I wasn't sure about Shakeology. I was worried about the taste, and that I would miss my green juice. I am beyond sold on them. I have lost 90% of my cravings, I'm seeing huge results in changing my body! And they're easy to throw together in a rush."
"I feel like after doing these for close to a year, something has really clicked. I have always struggled fitting in the fitness challenges and assumed it would be just as hard this time. I think you having us set the "mini challenges" made me get creative to find a way to make the fitness challenges happen - and it turns out that doing them in the am really works for me - I actually like doing them!"
"I amaze myself! These challenges and sticking with my fitness goals has made me surprise myself with what I can do!"
"Just thinking about making good choices makes them easier."
"Happy with my progress. Lost some weight, gained some strength and some clothes that were tight now for just right!"
"I'm happy to have stuck to the workout schedule. I thought that I would stop the workouts, but that has been the easy part and I enjoy them."
"I've been bummed that the scale isn't showing what i want it to -- but then I stumbled across this picture from an earlier challenge group in January. I didn't say "after" on the second set of pictures because I am still a work in progress -- and looking forward to continuing with the system and seeing how far I can go."
"Completed challenge! 12 more than last time: Not sure if I'm physically stronger or just at a place where I'm pushing myself more, but I'm ok with either!"
"This was my first challenge group and I loved it. Definitely doing the next one!"
"Just thinking about what you're eating, helps you make better choices."
"Since this is my second challenge, I have incorporated a lot of lifestyle changes. The daily log helps immensely to get me to make healthier choices."
"I realize exercise is a privilege after a few weeks on crutches and in a boot. I should be thankful that I am able!"
"I've come to look at working out as my escape time."
"Best compliment at the grocery store. Man looks at his wife and said "honey look at her cart it's so healthy." never thought I would hear that!"
