Weekly Weigh-In
7 Points per Week
Contestants must check-in once per week to earn their weekly points. Points will be given regardless of what the scale says as long as the contestant checks in. This is to add a level of accountability to the challenge and encourage consistency.
The same time of day/week is encouraged to accurately track progress, but not mandatory in order to receive points.
Contestants competing virtually and/or prefer extra social-distancing guidelines will need to schedule an appointment with a member of the staff that can recur weekly throughout the challenge.
Weeks begin on Mondays and end on Sundays.
FOOD JOURNAL ACCOUNTABILITY
7 Points per Week
You cannot outwork bad eating habits. In order to instill some accountability to what you are doing outside of the workouts, members will be required to journal their food.
Food journals will not be scored based on what’s in them. The goal is to actively complete your log each week to create better eating habits and awareness of what you’re putting in your body. As long as the log is turned in, points will be awarded.
Members may log their food via any food log app, such as “my fitness pal”, or in a notebook, whichever is preferred.
To make beneficial changes to one’s eating habits, it’s best to record the time you’re eating, what it is, the amount eaten and when you workout.
A copy of your food journal from the week prior must be emailed by the following Monday @ 6pm.
EMAIL — ashley@trainforlifema.com
Points will not be adjusted for contestants who turn their logs in late.
*EXAMPLE: Food Logs from Monday, 1/11/21 – Sunday, 1/17/21 must be turned in by Monday, 1/18/21 @ 6pm.
GRATITUDE POSTS
1 Point per Day
It’s hard to remain hopeful and stay positive during times of stress and uncertainty. The state we are all currently living in, although challenging, can teach us a lot about gratitude.
Contestants will be required to make a daily post to the Private Challenge Facebook Group.
Posts are simple and can include as many or few details as you wish about something that you are grateful for that day - big or small, a positive story or something informational that you’d like to share with the group.
These must be posted to the group by 10PM to receive a point for that day.
3 Bonus Points per Week
Help us spread positivity beyond our community!
Contestants who make one post per week on their Facebook page will receive 3 extra points for that week.
Posts must be public and include…
Check-In to Train for Life
The hashtag #TFL42HARD
As long as the hashtag is included in your post, you do not need to repeat the post in the challenge group that day. We will search the hashtag while calculating daily points.
WEEKLY PHYSICAL CHALLENGES
7 Points per Week
Contestants must complete the physical challenge each week to receive their points. Weekly points will be given regardless of where one stands amongst the competition as long as the challenge is completed.
Challenges will be completed at an appointment time that can recur weekly to ensure a staff member is available and stay within the COVID capacity guidelines. Challenges DO NOT need to be completed post-workout.
Contestants competing virtually and/or prefer extra social-distancing guidelines will need to schedule an appointment with a member of the staff, and will be done at the same time as the weekly weigh-in.
Physical Challenges will be demoed by video and thoroughly explained on the Challenge Facebook Group the week prior to each challenge with all rules and guidelines.
*Contestants in need of modifications for a specific physical challenge will still be granted the 7 points for completing the challenge for that week, but they not be allowed to use points towards the overall physical challenge standings to get credit for Male and Female First Place prizes.
