This week is going to be a light week of exercise, as next week I will be announcing a 4 week exerciseXpress challenge with a major prize for the best participant! Stay tuned for the latest information regarding this, it will start on Monday the 11th of August.
What are your goals? Last week was a goal setting week; my major goal is to get fit and start feeling great again. I want to compete in Swimming and Running races by the end of the year so this has given me a time schedule as well.
This week, I want everyone to go for 30-45 minute walk every second day. This will give you a baseline before starting the 4 week exerciseXpress challenge.

So far my fitness regime has involved skiing last weekend, two gym sessions and five 30 minute walks. I am taking it slow as I’m also building up to undertake this 4 week exerciseXpress challenge. If you have any suggestions let me know J

Hi Blair,
This weeks exercise program is realisitic, especially as my lifestyle is busy now-a-days. Most of the days I only have mornings and lunches free to do some exercise. I find walking for about 30 minutes in these given periods is very relaxing and an escape from work. However, I am still struggling with the cold weather. Getting motivated during winter peiods is difficult – I find with star jumps and knee ups helpful to get warm. Do you have any other tips?
I believe that with the recent events such as the Tour de France, City to Surf and Beijing Olympics I have more motivation to get up and try to be active.
