Hello Lifestyle Readers,

It’s been a week since we launched our two-week Chloe Ting fitness challenge! I hope many of you have started, and if you haven’t yet don’t hesitate to join us this week!

Personally, this challenge represented for me the official comeback to physical activity after I broke my foot sailing this summer. Because of this I had to be very careful about my movements and in some of the jumping exercises I preferred to choose the low-impact version.

During the first few days of the challenge, I felt very tired afterwards, and my muscles were very sore the day after. After this first week though, I felt like I have already regained a little of my cardio and muscular resistance!

As this period can be overwhelming because of midterms and deadlines, I understand that many people can’t find time to fit some physical activity in their busy schedule. In fact, I struggled to avoid skipping the second and the third day. Although, once you enter into the frame of mind of following the challenge until the end, it becomes part of your routine and it is very hard to skip without feeling guilty. Because of this I believe that these workouts, being between 30 and 60 minutes per day, are particularly suitable for students’ life, as you can do these quick but effective workouts between one class and the other or after dinner. Whatever works best for you!

Also, what I loved about this workout is that you can do it wherever you want, even if you don’t have much space nor equipment. For example, me and Flavia, who I started the challenge with, have been doing all the workouts in her room but as soon as the sun comes back we will do it in open air!

What have you all felt like during this first week of the challenge? Are you going to continue doing the challenge with us? Tell us about your experience!
