Can I just take a moment to say OMG MY ARMS HURT! Ok not that I have said that let's move on to today's challenge :) While my arms, already being sore, did not like this one it was not so much a difficult task. Today you are to do 200 Punches and 200 Butt Kicks! As always if you need help with these exercises just scroll down. HOW TO DO A PUNCH!(Sorry I was unable to find directions for this and simply used it as punching 100 times each side.) HOW TO DO A BUTT KICKERS!

Today's challenge is to do 25 Push Ups and 75 Tricep Dips. The sound of it doesn't scare me, even though I am well aware I can't do a full regular push up and will be doing these modified. Don't forget if you need help with how to do these exercises just scroll down :) HOW TO DO A PUSH UP! HOW TO DO A TRICEP DIP!

Yesterday was so nice not to feel like I was going to have to give up mid workout! However I was assured today that it would take me quite a while in order to get this workout done. No matter how sore I get it doesn't seem to matter I can't push further by any measurable amount. Today's challenge was to do 50 Squat Jumps and 200 Crunches. If you need help with how to do the exercises please scroll down. HOW TO DO A SQUAT JUMP! HOW TO DO A CRUNCH!

I love helping all my little daisies earn badges, but as a mom I hate putting them on. Lol I saw an idea on Pinterest a while back to use a flat iron so I thought I'd give it a try.  It worked really well but I do have a couple suggestions. First make sure your badge  is exactly where you want them. Unlike an iron this causes the glue to melt very fast! Second count I 3-4 and it is probably done! Lastly you will likely have to apply pressure to the end pinching it tight. Overall it worked very well and I will probably keep putting badges on this way :)

Oh I am so sore I didn't even want to work out today! But I did my best and got through it eventually ;) Today's challenge is 25 Squats and 100 Skater Slides. :) Don't worry this is probably the easiest day I have had so far, although the Skater Slides were a little tricky to get the hang of. If you need help with the exercises please feel free to scroll down for directions. HOW TO DO A SQUAT! HOW O DO A SKATER SLIDE!

I have to say I am not sure if I am dying or getting in shape lol is anyone else with me?? I really feel that at this point the pain should start getting better and the exercises easier to do ;) I can't say that I am noticing much of a difference in the way I look yet but only time will tell. At the end of this I will post before and after pictures. For Today's challenge you must do 50 Donkey Kicks(about as funny as they sound) and 100 Bicycle Crunches. If you are unsure how to do these exercises just make sure to scroll down for directions. HOW TO DO A DONKEY KICK! HOW TO DO A BICYCLE CRUNCH!

I'm sure I have mentioned before that we are big time football fans in this house. As a Broncos fan from birth this Super Bowl is going to be even more exciting! Recently I was given the chance to review some great Super Bowl party items from Oriental Trading that will make our Super Bowl even more exciting. We decided to give our party kit a little good luck run this weekend :). It's only weird if it doesn't work right lol.
       You can see most of the items in this picture. I want to talk a little about the football stadium drink cooler. Now I will admit when I picked this item I majorly under estimated the size of it.lol When I took it out of the package I realized how BIG it is. Measuring 2 foot by 4.5 feet it holds 40 pounds of ice and could hold 50+ drinks with ease. This will be the PERFECT Super Bowl party cooler because it can hold so many drinks, that even with friends over for the big game you won't have to constantly refill it. The Inflatable Footba…

Whew what a week of up and downs it has been and after yesterday's "easy" day I can assure you that today won't be as fun.lol For today's challenge you do 3 planks that are 60 second long each, as well as 200 jumping jacks. Is everyone excited?? Good luck and remember if you are unsure about how to do these exercises simply scroll down for instructions :) HOW TO DO A PLANK! HOW TO DO A JUMPING JACK!
