Challenge Board For Team Rick
Character Description
Rick Grimes is the series' central character. A former sheriff’s deputy in King's County, a small Georgia town, Rick is smart, calm, just, a sharpshooter, and a good friend, husband and father — but flawed. He sees most problems as black or white and will often stubbornly cling to his personal strong moral code, which results in his not always making the best decisions. Rick is a natural leader, someone his fellow survivors will turn to in a crisis, confident in his guidance, even when he at times doubts himself. His overwhelming need to do the right thing and protect those who can't protect themselves may pull him away from his family, causing cracks of tension within his marriage and in his relationship with his son. His frustrations about leading his group and keeping them safe gradually change him into a darker character.

Week One Challenge Feb 3-8
As a member of Team Rick you need to be prepared if you want to survive and be a strong leader in the Zombie Apocalypse. Cardio, weight training and balanced eating are all important aspects of staying strong, fast and uneaten.
Cardio:*
You will begin this first week by completing a minimum of 240 minutes of cardio, which should include at least 60 minutes of combat related exercise such as a martial art like kickboxing.
Weight Training:**
To preserve lean muscle mass while eating in a deficit, or to gain muscle while eating at maintenance or a surplus, you should start a weight training routine if you haven't already. Weight train or resistance train a minimum 30 minutes 3 times a week.
Food Intake***
Although food is hard to come by in the apocalypse, you still need to fuel your body properly. Stay within your set calorie goals, maintaining a weekly average. That means you can have a cheat day and go over, as long as you have other days to make up for the surplus. Ideally you should get 1 gram of protein per lean body mass and .35 grams of healthy fats per total body weight. Set your calories and macro targets if you haven't done so already.
Complete the above challenges and send a message to your team captain by Midnight Central Saturday February 8th. The message should include the following:
1. A short summary of your goals for the duration of the challenge, including your starting stats.
2. Total Cardio minutes completed out of 240. You will recieve one point for completing the minimum. Completing extra minutes will contribute to your chances at MVP.
3. Total Strength Training minutes completed out of 90. You will recieve one point for completing the minimum. Completing extra minutes will contribute to your chances at MVP.
4. Whether or not you stayed within your weekly calorie goal. You will recieve one point for staying at goal.
Your totals will be added to the rest of your team's and with Rick's kills from the December 1st Mid season finale (0) see http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1162909-episode-recap-season-4-part-1-finale and then the total will be divided among the number of team members. Team with the highest average number will win the week and members get to decide on and impose a punishment exercise to all of the other teams, which all players must complete, except the immune MVP's. Winners, new challenges and punishment exercises will be posted on this thread on Monday Feb 10th.
