I am not overweight but would like to tone up and get rid of some extra softness around the tummy area. Exercising has always helped me mentally as well, which is huge. It's a natural anti-depressant, so why not take advantage of it?
Today's workout was for more "front of the body" muscles like chest, shoulders, arms, quads and core. I was definitely sweating after (still am, recently finished it), but I also feel better mentally.
I'll be posting the workouts I do and how they went, to keep track of my progress. Feel free to post what you do for exercise as well, I could use some workout buddies!

So good for you! (and anyone else contributing) I've been struggling with my mood for too many months now (or perhaps it goes back a few years even) to have a set routine. I did actually try this 30day challenge and I really enjoy the programs, but I can't do the same ones every day and I can't do this intensity every day. At most, I probably ever did thrice a week, but alas, my mood changed, and I left the routine. I always try to keep some kind of fitness in my life, in fact, I need it because I have physical needs to be active, but getting enough and/or at proper times has been a challenge to sync up. For now, I support you and others doing this and am hopeful that I can get something regular set up again pretty soon!
