Sure that would be easier, but that means people who don't exercise and forget, slack off or for whatever reason don't post would be inaccurately considered 100%.

Besides, we like to celebrate success.

ah OK...well, in that case, I did workout 5 times last week...

thesaintv12

Six times for me this week. Is that is a day in the bank for any I miss?


Drastic

5/5 this week.

The way I'm doing it is no days carry forward, since the purpose is being consistent to the commitment every week.

thesaintv12

Ok, I'll just have to make sure I don't miss days then.

Just put my money in the hat too.

Ok, going to be the first to report a week below par, only made 2 sessions this week. Mostly due to being sick most of the week.

No excuses, just didn't had energy and felt like shit.

On Friday I still had three sessions to go, but I hit the weights yesterday and today, and I've just got back from an evening swim. I don't think I'd have bothered with the extra motivation from this thread. So that's my week three done.

4/4 this week.

1 run, 1 weight session, 1 bouldering session, 1 XC ski tour today (saw mt lion tracks and a coyote in the meadow howling). That's my "official" exercise. Less intense than the past couple of weeks which included a 12-hour Sunday event, but not too bad.

Also managed 3 hrs of shoveling gravel and an additional 1.5 miles of running b/c I was late for a lunch meeting.

Glad to see the commitment is helping, I know it's making a huge difference for me. There have been several days where I made it to the gym late afternoon when normally I would have just put it off until the next day.

Thanks for posting the update Drastic.

Another 5/5 for me this week. 

As a bonus I am down 8lbs since we started this.

>down 8lbs

Congrats! 

4/4 for me this week.

4/4 - Rock climbing tomorrow. So that will be 5 out of 4 I guess.

Ran 9 miles Thur - longest run since I hurt my calf in Aug 2010. Psyched!

Drastic

5/5, finished up yesterday. I wasn't feeling well Thursday so I laid out. Another workout that wouldn't have happened without the commitment.
