Subject: December "Get my A$$ on the Trainer" Challenge

Last month I got my mojo back and started a challenge to get on my trainer.  I have enjoyed Jorge's cycling program so much that I've decided to start a fresh spreadsheet for December.  (username: btchallenge - password: challengeforum2)

We challenge eachother and ourselves with no pressure to 'win' -  just be better at the end of the month, and hopefully keep a pound or two of the holiday cheer off !!   Cool

The parameters are for every 15 minutes you ride (the trainer, the gym bike, spin class, or for you fair weather friends - outside) you get 1 point.  Now the fun comes in when you ride consecutive days - your 1 point per 15 minutes grows!

Add your name and goals and get ready for December!!

That is totally understandable! That should be my goal, too. More attainable the every single day :-)

This is totally new to me, but I REALLY need to get back on my (or any other) bike! Count me in--I may not be able to hit every day, but I'll do the best I can!

I'll sign in later on the spreadsheet.

Just because Red spelled A$$ with dollar signs, I'm in!

15 sessions for me.  The spreadsheet shows November though.

Sounds like fun! Count me in! Will be starting a challenge at the gym tomorrow so the extra motivation will definitely help!

I tried to download the spreadsheet but it said I needed permission??

I'd like to join in, but I haven't begun Jorge's program yet.
I'm just getting back onto the bike after a too long hiatus.

OH!!! JORGE'S program is NOT required - It was a happy coincidence that last month's challenge coincided with the release of his latest program....  I had taken a lot of time off and I'm struggling with the program but this month's challenge (for myself) is to follow as close to the plan as possible and not skip a workout.

we'd love to have you no matter what your goals!!

I would not have logged 17 hours on the bike last month if there weren't challenge points involved. That said my a$$ needs to stay off the bike daily. I am in for this month with slightly less lofty goals. Thanks Lisa!

I biked this morning (YAY!) and went to log my info, but could not.

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong this time? I cannot type anything on the sheet now. And I am logged in.

OK, so I try again, actually get the page where it lists all the programs, click on the link for this challenge, and as able to enter my info. Wonder why it didn't go to that page the first time?

So, I biked for 30 minutes, so that's what I entered in the yellow box, and the white box pre-populated with a 2, so I think I did it right!
