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!
I am shocked she pulled through this weekend of festivities ahead of the game. Whew!
Apparently Tino is back with a vengeance!
The Holiday Challenge!
I’ve finally got my act together and figured out how to pull this information from the database. So, here are the results for the Holiday Challenge so far!
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!
JonTheBaptist! Blowin’ up that holiday challenge!!!
I love this tracking system! Can you please add me to the weight loss graph? Thanks!
Absolutely! I was actually thinking of emailing you this morning when putting it together to see if you wanted to join in! Keep up the awesome work!
Rough week, gained weight and snapped my 25+ week chain. I’ll take it in stride, still time to put up some numbers in these last two frames before the slate gets wiped on January 1st!
How exciting!! Take that, FMS! 😀
Awesome week Jade! 234 is pretty impressive 🙂
Thanks, Jon! I struggle to get to 100 AFP most weeks, so this was super exciting!
