Re Shape My Body: Challenge #2

Ok... anyone ready for another challenge?
Here it is:
SET A TIMER -For 20 minutes 3 times this week you need to put on your favorite music - something really up beat and preferably something you can belt out the lyrics to. (Like Abba or AC/DC??)
What ever your style... put on the music and jam to it while you clean your kitchen floor, or wash all the mirrors or windows in the house. Vacuum, sweep, or even wash all the walls and doors in your house - this will help prevent your family from getting sick too - get all the door knobs too.
Or just Jam to it (this would be fun to do with some kids, they'll get a work out too!) and don't quit moving your feet during the whole 20 minutes!

Bonus Task.... Start the 20 minutes with 25 Jumping Jacks and end it with an Apple or some other fruit. Also... keep your water bottle handy for each work out!

Have fun and make sure to comment on what you did and how it made you feel!
