How the game is played:
How the challenge works:
1. On Day 1 of the challenge you will measure where you are starting — Both a performance measurement in the Whole Life Challenge baseline workout, and a physical measurement of where your body is. Your final ranking in the challenge will be a combination of your improvement in these measurements along with the points you earn during the challenge.
2. Starting on Day 2 you will log into the website every day and report your score for the previous day. That means that on Day 2 you will be reporting your score for your activities on Day 1. You will also have the chance to enter a brief public “reflection” of how things are going for you. Share how the day before went or just where you are at the moment — the good, the bad, AND the ugly!
3. Visit the blog and forums regularly for coaching, support, tips, recipes, and reflection.
4. On the final day of the challenge you will repeat the measurements from Day 1 — workout and body measurements.
Final Tabulation for rankings is based on:
1. 25% – Improvement in body measurements
2. 25% – Improvement in workout performance
3. 50% – Accountability (daily points total)
