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!
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!
Absolutely fantastic to get through Thanksgiving without gaining! 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!
November Leaders!
Huge congrats to Dave who managed to overtake Dad and maintain his lead! I know how much energy those two put in, so major congrats. Also keep it up Danna, killing it!
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!
I’m interested. I would like to know more about AFP system. Looks like a nice way to lose some weight.
Hello!
The AFP System has a pretty good explanation under the F.A.Q menu option at the top, it is basically a way to score various workouts to make them reasonably comparable to each other. It is based off using metabolic equivalency values for different workouts!
