Cool Getting Buff! November 2019 Challenge To Keep Moving Weeks 45-48

If you're trying to increase lean muscle mass, lower body fat through strength training, and tone up, this is the check-in for you! We're a small, friendly group doing a wide variety of workouts: weights, kettlebells, barre, pilates, yoga, running. We don't tend to be chatty, but if more people join and it becomes chatty, that's fine, too.

Some list our workouts and the number of minutes worked out accumulating the minutes toward a year end goal while others post workouts when they find time.

Everyone welcome.
