Team Captains August Challenge (Closed Group)

Let me see if I can clarify some of the questions.

Weigh ins are handled by team captains. People need to have weights to you today if possible as a starting weight.
Modify exercises where necessary. Just do something more or different.
Exercises can be done in any order.
Team points are calculated as follows.

Daily exercise = 1 point
Weekly Challenges = calories, water (are only good for bonus points) If everyone does them then your team gets 5 extra points.
Weight loss at the end of the week = 1 point per pound lost.
Example.

I did each exerice for all 6 days = 6 points individual points
Everyone on my team did all 6 days daily exercise = 5 total team points (no individual)
Everyone on my team did the weekly challenge (water, calories) = 5 Total team points (no individual)
I lost 18lbs (hey it could happen) I get 18 points

So for my individual score I would have 24 (weight loss + daily exercise) My team would then get a Bonus of 10 points.

On sunday you will add all your individual scores, all your team bonus points and then mail me ONE TOTAL>

SO I should see something like this. Team Weapons of Mass Reduction = 1000 points for week 1. That's it. I don't need to know about the individuals scores. At the end of Aug.31st. You can post each beginning weight and each ending weight and we'll see what top 3 people we have. If anyone else would like to donate to the prize package I'm open for it. I've had a couple people donate Gift Cards to Mary Kay. I'd love to have a couple GNC, ITunes cards. Even for $5. So if you hear of anyone that is willing to donate you let me know. For obvious reasons NO CASH or anything that could be misconstrued as shady.

Thanks,

Gary



I hope this makes sense.

I'm also going to post tomorrow my verdict on team weight loss percentages vs lbs lost for you skinny minny teams out there.

This might work as we now have some teams that are short people. Any arguments and ideas on how to calculate this are appreciated . (For or against)

Lastly you guys are doing a phenomenal job. I was off work today and have a small injury (nothing to worry about) but I will be at my PC all day tomorrow. So fire away anything you need through the MFP Mail. I check it the most.

Yeah the team pics is more for them. I thought I might have a volunteer that might want to put that into a little movie. Before and after with their screename! Be kinda cool. Whatever works though!.
