Member 44 Abingdon, MD | Subject: RE: December's "Get Your A$$ On The Trainer" challenge! Finally got home from the conference and felt like doing nothing but eating and sleeping. Got on the trainer for just 15 minutes and I have to admit that it felt great to move!! Then my 9 year old wanted to know (actually begged me) if we could "do some abs" together. How could I say no?? |

Watch out, next thing you know, the 9 year old will have a BT nic, enter into the bike challenge and end up beating us all.

Grabbed 45 min in the saddle post Miss Thing's concert (needed fast music to erase the memory of the awful 6th grade orchestra) In case you wonder, Miss Thing is 7th grade choir. |

| New user 14 Ottawa | Subject: RE: December's "Get Your A$$ On The Trainer" challenge! Actually I felt like ..........perhaps coming down with something. Antidote - Slap on some padded pants and ride. I did 1 hr. I did the first 30 min straight and then I did 3 sets of 10 min with some brief weights in between. Does that still count? All in all my was in the saddle and my little legs peddled for 60 min. My goal was an hour but I had to break it up..........the behind is still a tiny bit sore. Oh ya.........didn't want to break my bonus streak! Maggs |

Master 1779 | Subject: RE: December's "Get Your A$$ On The Trainer" challenge! Finally 45 minutes in spinning class which I'm counting as the trainer. Thanks for the challenge. Without it I probably wouldn't have gotten on the bike tonight. THis week has been horrible at work. |

If I could figure out a way to ride the trainer and surf BT at the same time, I'd be leading this thing by a wide margin!

Maggs I used to take a cycle class at a Y called cycle and scuplt where we used 5 to 8 lb weights and did various strength training upper body with slowed cadence pedaling alternating with no weights and hard cadence +/or tension. It was a great class. A form of intervals which is all the good stuff |

Extreme Veteran 589 Gig Harbor | Subject: RE: December's "Get Your A$$ On The Trainer" challenge! 80 minutes - done!!! I watched a great movie called Water while ridin' on my trainer. It is an Indian film - I haven't finished it yet but so far its really good. I watch a lot of foreign films and most are so - so but this one is a must see, not a 10 but pretty good - check it out! |

Member 44 Abingdon, MD | Subject: RE: December's "Get Your A$$ On The Trainer" challenge! max - 2008-12-04 9:18 PM as a parent of one of those kids I would certainly not be offended. I've had to listen to the extensive practice of jingle bells on the flute for the past month. the concert for the 4th grade orchestra is monday :} Im sitting here at the conference today wishing I had brought some food. The lukewarm egg, sausage and cheese thing I ate is not sitting well. But.... I will still ride tonight QueenZipp - 2008-12-04 10:00 PM Betcha thought I wasn't going to get my ride on today. WRONG!

Master 1209 New York, NY | Subject: RE: December's "Get Your A$$ On The Trainer" challenge! The last thing I wanted to do when I go home last night was get on the trainer. BUT, I want bonus points!! |
As added motivation I also purchased what may be some of the best cookies ever. I know, I know.... not the healthiest form of motivation but I have a sweet tooth that doesn't quit and I swear these cookies were calling my name. I did make myself earn my cookies though....75 minutes last night and another 45 this morning.| 2008-12-05 9:58 AM in reply to: #1840084 |
| Champion 8903 | Subject: RE: December's "Get Your A$$ On The Trainer" challenge! Keep us up to date on how many trainer minutes it takes to burn off 1 cookie. Now there is a scientific study that I'd sign up for in a heartbeat!
