    What if we take a video, in order to show that we have exercised 30 min?

    lmao you ain't gonna get me to show you guys myself sweating.

    I'll take your word for it d: This is just to motivate me and yourself to actually get off our butts and move, so if you lie about it it's your own loss ;)

  • It takes me about 20-25 minutes to walk into downtown one way, and since I do that every single day as a habit more than anything else, I guess that works?

    I also have a bicycle and am applying for UberEats, but they?re being shitty at the moment so I can?t yet go online. I bike occasionally anyway though.

    I?ve just been out for a walk with my friends for about 40 minutes. We said we should stop going for coffee together all the time and start powerwalking instead d:

    It takes 50 miles just to burn 1 pound, walking is to easy and simple.
    Running does tho. I run a lot, it has helped me build a lot of muscle.

  • Umm walking definitely helps too! Not as much as running but it helps a lot. Also, burning calories/weight depends on your body, and your weight.

  • Long walks are actually really good, especially at a brisk pace. It just doesn't burn tons of calories like the more vigorous exercises. I do it mostly to maintain a balanced weight. That way it doesn't build up and surprise me the next time I'm on the scales!

    That being said, if I walk 30+ minutes each day, does it count towards this challenge?

    I also enjoy cycling for 30 - 60 minutes every other day, but my tires are flat and the weather has been far too cold and wet since Autumn arrived. So walking and/or trampolining will have to do for now!

  • I could definitely be down for this. Aaaand, for proof, we could include screenshots from whatever fitness tracking app we use [e.g. MyFitnessPal, MapMyRun, etc.]

    Nothing like being held accountable!

    I'm late, but I did my usual 120 push-ups (20x6) each for the regular and bicep forms as well as 117 squats (supposedly 20x6), 60 sit-ups (20x3), and 20x4 of lifting makeshift weights. My rep count hasn't been increasing since March and I'm at a loss.
