The Exercise Challenge

If you’ve noticed on the right-hand side of the page, there is a new button labeled “The Exercise Challenge.”  I am starting a 6-week challenge to lose five pounds doing basic exercises without the use of gym equipment or any gizmos they sell on TV.  Five pounds might not sound like a lot, but it is a reasonable goal.

I was going to the gym regularly in 2007 and 2008 until I ended up in the hospital.  Unfortunately, I never returned to the gym after recovering.  This has led to me to regain all the weight I had lost since 2007 -plus five additional pounds – hence my goal.

The site will detail the exercises I will be performing, statistics on weight and measurements during the challenge, and any observations during the six weeks that I think are interesting.  If you are interested in joining me with the challenge, you are more than welcomed to contribute to the site.  The challenge will start on March 29th.
