Pick a level. Set a goal. How much exercise can you get in this week?
- Fitness Enthusiasts (Beginners): Log 110 minutes of exercise
- Fitness Buffs (Intermediate): Log 235 minutes of exercise
- Fitness Elites (Advanced): Log 360 minutes of exercise
- "You Are What You Eat" (Rotating Monthly Challenge/RMC July) This month's challenge is to try and identify the most important nutritional challenge you face. Are you good all day but then can't stop snacking at night? Is lack of planning interfering with your diet? Are you planning too strictly and then finding yourself melting down on Saturdays? This week you can earn a ✓ by your name on the results list if you select a nutritional goal and meet it! Take long hard look at food journals and set a goal that makes you healthier and happier.
- Pick a personal goal for this week! Let us know what it is and how you did. I'll add a little ★ in front of your name on the leader board if you get it.
So what are your weekly goals? Are you going to be an Enthusiast, Buff, or Elite?

- "The Tortoise and the Hare" (Rotating Monthly Challenge/RMC August) This month's challenge is to decide if you are a Tortoise or a Hare. Begin each week by selecting which character you will be for the week.
Tortoise(s) - When selecting tortoise, you will pick a fitness goal that ups the intensity of your workout. So you could run further or faster, or you could add in interval training, or you could take on an exercise that is particularly challenging for you. The goal is to significantly increase the challenge of your workouts.
Hare(s) - When selecting hare, you will pick fitness goals that increase the duration and consistency of your workouts. So you could take an extra walk once a week, or spend more time doing doing exercises that you are already doing. The goal here is to focus on a "slow and steady wins the race" mentality and to increase the amount of time you are working out.
So? Which are you this week? A Tortoise? Or a Hare? Pick one and meet your goal to earn a ✓.

I like the new challenge!
I will go for the tortoise this week and I will be taking a break from lifting and doing more cardio. My goal will be to actually run for more of my runs instead of slowing down and walking, I always seem to do that at the same point.
Going for buff again.0 -
I will go for the hare this week with the goal of hitting the elliptical for more than the 15 minutes I have been doing lately. My personal goal is to log more consistently as I have slacked this past few weeks big time ESPECIALLY with the exercise.0
