I know you can't do it in the car (š) but when you get to where you're going lifting weights and running in place are good energy burners....anything can be a 'weight' and you can 'run' while watching the tv (yelling at whats on adds to the burn!).
Got a tip for us?

10 hours in the office though is a bit more of a challenge! Iāll do my standard cross trainer session before I go, then fit in what I can. Mostly Iām just trying to do plenty today and the rest of the week. Iāve done 216% of my move goal so far today.
I got one like this too. It pisses me off because as a fighter I put my body to the limit every day that I can. I canāt beat January because there are more days in the month than February. Iād have to practically injure myself working out 3 hours a day to achieve mine. They need to make sure their monthly challenges are achievable.
Iāve really been pushing to get this one. When I first got it I thought I canāt double my move goal everyday (which is basically the number of calories it started at). But Iāve managed it everyday. Iāll be really pissed if I donāt make it tomorrow and the next day. But Iāll try and make every opportunity count. Just donāt want to get back late Tuesday night and have to jump on the cross trainer rather than eat and spend time with Mrs AFB.
Got my February Challenge badGE over the weekend! Was very happy; favourite badge thus far.
Starting to feel a bit of strength now - still very weakened from Covid induced atrophy but itās slowly feeling like growth pains is back.
Now to correct my diet

I met my goal yesterday. My numbers for February look great so Iām almost scared to see whatās in store for me for March but weāll see.
They've been pretty manageable with the exception of bad weather months where I just can't spend much time outdoors, but what worries me is I went way above and beyond this month in terms of exercise minutes and calories than usual. I'm afraid it's gonna be like "Quadruple your move goal 20 times in March" or something, haha.since you met Feb challenge, it'll be harder
Completed my workout this morning and here it is ...looking forward to an "easy" one in March
Well if you and I only made it with a day to spare, hopefully March isnāt too much of a stretch. If you complete your challenge too early, they give you more to go the following month.Completed my workout this morning and here it is ...looking forward to an "easy" one in March

yea, but I consider double your move goal or close all rings every day "easy" cause I do that anyway ... now the one challenge that is a possibility would be doing xxx exercise minutes, as Iam trending at 116min/day the challenge would probably be ~ 3900 for March and that would be a stretch ... we'll find out soon enough
I always try to complete my challenges on the last day of every month, this mostly keeps the next challenge manageable for me So I will be posting my award for February tomorrow
Another 50 exercise minutes to complete.

This is like submitting the assignment on the deadline day š one negative to this is you have to deliberately underperform some time and won't be able to push yourselfI always try to complete my challenges on the last day of every month, this mostly keeps the next challenge manageable for me

If you finish the challenge early the numbers keep counting and you could end up with some difficult challenges the following month. I normally go out fast early in the month and ease up nearing the end. It's just the way I manage my challenges and it works for me. I push myself every month don't worry about that
I always try and push at the start. In case you have an off day or whatever. But as I basically had to virtually double my move goal to hit the target this month it was a real push. Not helped by the long work hours, bad weather and travelling. But got there anyway.If you finish the challenge early the numbers keep counting and you could end up with some difficult challenges the following month.

do you have an spreadsheet to track all of that?? š¤šIf you finish the challenge early the numbers keep counting and you could end up with some difficult challenges the following month.

šš Nooooo I don't use such things - I"m in my early seventies
I just go out and do it every day - usually up a hill near by.Congratulations! Made it yesterday 27,907 calories......now for some rest and back to normal on closing rings!
