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. If anyone is interested in taking part in weekly tracking, leave a comment!
Typically it is posted much earlier in the day, but today has been very busy!
Weight Loss
Each week, members who have opted to have their weights publicly displayed for the world 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!
As usual, lets dig into Adrienne’s results first!
Despite a long weekend in Buffalo, she held her ground. Awesome job!
Anti-Fat Points
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 leader-board on the right-hand sidebar. This is meant to be a fun way to encourage competition to see who can earn the most points!
The threshold is back to 100 AFP, Green is over and Red is under. Try to get 100 AFP and turn your bar green!
The 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!
As always, if you were slow to get data in, your chain will be re-instated!
This is such a cool idea and I am excited to do it!
Welcome!
Hi. Elizabeth and Dafydde would love to be part of the tracking. I (Dafydde) have lost some poundage already and feel better in general. Thanks.
Hi! This is Elizabeth (Beckie Strum’s mom). I’m really enjoying the great website! Please include me in the weekly graphs. Thanks!
This is Dafydde. Please include me with the weekly graphs as well. Elizabeth is my spouse and we’re having a lovely time.
Sounds great! I’ll add you two in! I’ll flag your accounts so that the data pulls down each week =)
