About this Challenge:
Don't have weights? Don't worry, use bean bags, water bottles, use your own weight by doing push ups, sit ups, etc. All you need is a little resistance to get an amazing workout, after four weeks you will feel the difference!
Work your legs, arms, back, whatever you want, just put some resistance into it. I feel weightlifting is the most important thing to do for weight loss, and body sculpting. Muscles burn calories, so get lifting!
Taking a day off is vital, you have to let your muscles repair themselves. We will see who sticks to the work out, and who loses weight.
There are two teams the Red Raptors and the Blue Bears. I will be assigning you to your teams.
Join this challenge!! It will really be a lot of fun!

Eat meat! If you are a vegetarian, eat nuts. It is important to feed those new muscles. If you want to go the protein shake route that is ok too.
