Hi Kat, I can understand your feeling. For me there is a thin line between being accountable and stressing out too much about it.
I personally don’t think it’s necessary to post how we did each day. I do sometimes. But often not. And there won’t be people asking you how you did your day. Like: what you did only 2 sets? It’s not the point I think. I am working on following my own advice.

If you don’t know yet how to organise the sets maybe try this. Only that you’d have to stick to the same time for each excercise 
Edited: 
oops, it’ll be 14 mins for all 8 sets.
August will be a challenge.

There’s no such thing as failure! It’s just
about jumping in and giving it a go and you did just that

Because of my health issues those are impossible for me. However I do want to motivate myself. Am I welcome to check in here daily completing a walk around my block? That would be a good half mile for me. Perhaps as I commit to it I could range further.

Well it’s Monday 1st August here in Oz and the August Challenge is officially kicking off! As @anon74766472 mentioned earlier, the SmartWOD Timer is a great app. I set mine up as follows
8 rounds of 1 minute with a 10 second break between each round. I found 1 minute worked well as - 20 seconds squats + 10 seconds jumping jacks + 10 seconds to set up into plank + 20 seconds plank.
Day 1 done

No worries, I actually had to google jumping jacks 
over here we call them star jumps

Star jumps are a thing here but like a more advanced jumping jack. How come you did a min. Just cause your badass? I was gonna do 20 for 8 rounds with 10 sec break

I set 1 minute rounds and in that 1 minute, did 20 seconds squats, 10 seconds jumping jacks, 10 seconds to set up a plank and 20 seconds plank = 1 minute. Took a 10 second break and then repeated until I finished 8 rounds.

Day 1 done! It’s says 6 rounds in my screen shot because first I set the rounds up wrong in the app… 
First I did 2 rounds and then the other 6! I enjoyed this, changed the jumping jacks for rope skipping though.

Lol at one point during the planks I thought I better get another ab out of this (my first 2 are finally visible)

Today was a miserable day. The feels like temp was over 100 degrees with high humidity. I wasn’t sure if I would reach goal but grandson walked around the block with me just now and I completed it. I changed to steps because of how my phone works and for accountability. I wish I was young enough to do what you guys do but I’m grateful to be able to be motivated.

That’s so lovely that your son joined you on the walk. The heat can make everything feel so unbearable hey! It’s funny because the majority of forum members are in the UK, US etc but I am in Oz and its been winter here for us. In a few months time I’ll be complaining about our heat while you guys have freezing temps lol
