Default November Strength Challenge - Lift and Stretch

It is that time again.
You just need to decide on your November minutes. Work all you body parts (upper, core, lower) and have some fun with it. Anything strength or flexibility related is relevant - yoga, lifting, toning, pilates.

OK Liv, I am in for 1800. I made it this month but my body is starting to rebel so this may be an ambitious goal. We will see...

Default Re: November Strength Challenge - Lift and Stretch

I am going to modify my goal--just realized that the weather is going to cool off enough that water aerobics is going to be too chilly soon-will have to switch to cardio instead. But I am still going to shoot for 1500.
