The Weekly Health Challenge: Relaxation, Push ups, and Crunches
Weekly Challenge (Level One):
Take five minutes every day to just relax
Don't complain or argue that you don't have enough time for this. Five minutes here or there will not permanently destroy your schedule, and will do worlds for your state of mind. You need to take care of yourself, too, you know. Don't be selfish about it, of course, others need you. But take a five-minute break each day this week and see how you feel afterwards.
Weekly Challenge (Level Two):
Do ten pushups and twenty crunches three nonconsecutive days this week
We're scaling back on pushups now, and upping the crunches. Work that core! And don't cheat. Doing them super-fast won't get you as much of a benefit as if you do them slowly. It gives your muscles more work. More work equals more benefit - provided you don't overdo. And make sure you take some days to let your muscles recover, too. No point in working them to death!
Extra Challenge:
If this is too easy, try one of these instead!
