Try jump roping. An hour of jump roping burns about 700 calories. Try adding some jumping jacks or some form of cardio. Good Luck!

I think this is such a great idea. My blog entry today was tlaking about how when I was the thinnest wasnt from killing myself in the gym everyday but from walking and going dancing and shopping and just staying active doing everyday things not from killing myself on the treadmill. great challenge I can't wait to start

I forgot to inform you that Carmen's DVD Collection is calculated as Aerobic workout in you spark fitness tracker. As for her part 2 DVD (Fit to Strip) is considered Circuit Training which is both cardiovascular and strength training workout.
You can find how much calories you burn in circuit training (general) on this site: http://www.howtobefit.com/calorie-counter.htm
Add how much you have burn over a course of a week—including shopping, cleaning the house, playing with your children, cooking, driving, etc. Any activity you are doing throughout your day is counting in the challenge such as cooking, playing with your kids, walking to work, walking up stairs for 5 mins, cleaning, picking up boxes, unpacking your clothes, doing laundry, dancing, shoveling snow, shopping, etc. Be active through out your day is important as well.
You can burn so much by staying active all the time. It takes burning 3500 calories to lose one pound; if you burn 7000 you will lose 2 pounds. So if you focus and work hard each week, you should lose between 6-10 pounds depending on much you are staying active and if you are tracking correctly. Diet is also important...of course if you are burning a lot of calories, you should be eating enough calories and lots of veggies, protein, high fiber, etc.
But be careful some activities at rest don't count such as reading, watching tv, sitting on the computer, naps, driving, playing a game, etc because they are already counted by you basal metabolic rate, which already burns calories when you are resting.
Here's a link to my favorite calories burned calculators (activity calculator): http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/cbc http://www.caloriesperhour.com/index_burn.php http://dftools.ivillage.com/healthtools/calc_cb.cfm
I did this myself for a month and dropped so much weight. Anyone interested? I know it seems a bit much to burn, but it adds up by the end of the week. Here's what you have to burn:
Here's the Sexy, NEW You Cardio Challenge:
April 13- April- 19—5500 calories April 20- April 26—6000 calories April 27- May 3—6500 calories May 4- May 10-- 7000 calories May 11- May 17-- 6500 calories May 18- May 24-- 6000 calories May 25- May 31--5500 calories
****One day of pampering yourself, such as bubble bath, medicure or pedicure, watching your tv show, etc
****Strength training 3x a week.
Every week (Saturdays or Sundays) post the amount you have burned for that week. Example:
April 6- April 12— 5524 calories burned
We start in next sunday and everyone is welcomed to join. You can post throughout the week on your progress and especially if you need support or have any questions.
