Is anyone interested in participating in another TypeC Exercise [and Diet] Challenge? The main purpose of the challenge will be to provide incentive to exercise more and eat healthy foods. It'll be a way for us to support and push each other, and share our results.
If you are new to this, you can look at the sticky thread on the top of this subforum to get a rough idea of what to expect. Basically, each person will create some exercise and/or diet goals, share them with everyone, and then post your progress. We may or may not make a contest out of it. That's for us to figure out.
Here are my thoughts so far:
1. We'd start Monday, January 6th or 13th.
2. The challenge would last for 3-6 months.
3. I'd like to keep a list of active participants and update it every month. We can include everyone's progress in a bi-weekly or monthly summary post as well. (If people drop out or have a bad stretch, I'll leave them out. It'll be used strictly to share each other's positive progress.)
4. I'd like to have some sort of specific challenge every 2 weeks to keep things fresh. Participation wouldn't be mandatory. For example, the first one could be "take a multivitamin" or something else very simple. Other 2-week challenges could be like "do some sort of activity for 30 minutes 5 times this week", "keep a food log", etc. I think it would be fun coming up with a list of unique challenges. We might be able to keep track of compliance percentage to make it a bit competitive.
5. People will be free to use the Exercise Challenge subforum to create exercise and diet blogs / progress threads. We may have 1 or 2 main threads for things like the bi-weekly challenges and summary posts.
Anyways, let's use this thread to see if there is enough interest to warrant doing this, and flesh out what type of things you'd like to see.

I need a way to keep in shape (especially during the cold seasons).
