TEAM MEMBERS:  2021 CHANGE for LIFE CHALLENGE!

Don’t let COVID kick your butt, let the Forum Change for Life Challenge do it!

GET READY!  Healthy Habits begin Jan 25-March 7 2021

The CHANGE for LIFE Challenge will promote health and fitness by encouraging team members to stay active, reinforce healthy habits, as well as create comradery among coworkers. Since Covid, it has been difficult to stay active, keep energy up and weight down, and to find motivation. We challenge you to motivate your coworkers and family to join in with you!  

How it works:  This challenge runs for 6 full weeks.  The exercises are cumulative. A different exercise challenge will be introduced each week with all exercises ending at the end of the 6 weeks. on each week by continuing the challenges until the end of the six weeks. Example: During week 5, you will complete each of the previous 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th exercises that were introduced each Monday, then add the 5th exercise. The exercise introduced on the 5th Monday will continue through the 5th and 6th week.  Continue all of the exercises through to the end of the 6th week then end them all on Sunday March 7th.

SCORING: The goal is to earn at least one “Healthy Habit” point each day by completing the daily challenge in full.  However, if that is not possible, you will enter the score that best matches what you were able to complete for that day.  The Challenge Runner mobile app is the easiest way to log your scores so download it on your phone.  If you have a smart phone, Fitbit, etc… you can set it up to log your steps for you.
