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!

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!
Weekly 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
To put more emphasis on current progress and current streaks, I am now only displaying the current active streak for each player. It is calculated the same as before, minimum three days a week. Each consecutive week you gain a link.
Hey Jon,
I’d like to help with the tracking each week if you’re still looking for someone feel free to email me and we can chat!

I’m interested in helping with weekly tracking. I studied research methods, statistics, and behavior in college. Let me know if you’re still looking for help!
Very cool! I am always open to ideas how how we could query the database differently and pull results down. Right now the data is stored in a relational mysql database that can be directly queried or can be dumped into other formats for processing. Most of the chart data is automatically graphed now which helps, but if you have any cool ideas I’m game!
