Hello, hello! Here at 2 Fat Nerds, each Wednesday is a Weigh-In day, where all of the data from the previous week is collected, displayed, and analyzed.

Now, let’s dig in to the results!

Weight

Each week, members who have opted to have their weights publicly displayed for the world (or at least for my mom!) to see have them graphed on the main blog. It is a great way to keep track over time, and it gives a bit more accountability to your workouts. If you are interested, leave a comment!

AFP

Anti-fat points (AFP) is a system designed to give some sort of value to each and every workout, regardless of type. It is based on metabolic-equivalent values out of the compendium of physical activities. Submit a workout, get AFP. Each week we post the totals for each person for the week. In addition, you may see the monthly AFP leaderboard on the right-hand sidebar. This is meant to be a fun way to encourage competition to see who can earn the most points!

Chain-Game

The Chain Game is a fun little system we came up with to see how many consecutive weeks a person can complete a minimum of three days of workouts. Every week in a row that a person completes the three-day goal, he or she adds one link to his or her active chain. For more information see this post!

The B.A.A Half Marathon claimed many chains this week.

Breakdowns

Below is a graph showing all of the different types of workouts submitted this week.

Many hours of running!

Map

Each week we chart our cardio-based workout distances (no cycling included). This week, 294 kilometers have been tacked on to our journey!
