Making Homeless Bags

Over the past year, I have been approached by several homeless families while going about my busy life.  Unfortunately, I never have any cash to give them because I always use my debit card.   I started keeping gift cards to fast food restaurants and grocery stores in my car so that I would have something to give.

The Workout Calendar

The 30-Day Plank challenge will get progressively harder as we go through November.  There are rest days built in to give your body a chance to let your muscles recuperate.
Tips for Planking:
1. Be mindful of your form at all times!  It's quality, not quantity that counts!
2. If you find the daily time too difficult, then just plank as long as you can, or break it up into smaller sets.
3. Think the challenge is too easy?
Add another interval or add in a plank variation such as:
Side Planks
Reverse Planks
Planks with Hip Dips

We had so much fun with this last year, I can't wait to see all of your pictures!

Remember:  before you start any exercise program, check with your doctor!

Let's Get Planking!
