I just signed up for a community fitness challenge.
There are two components. One is to meet a fitness goal every week (in terms of minutes exercised), and one component is a weight loss challenge. I usually avoid weight loss challenges, but since there are prizes involved for participating I decided to sign up. I am only competing with myself.
I had the official weigh in at my wellness center yesterday and I was weighed and then she had me use the body fat analyzer. My body fat still doesn't register on the machine which errors out if your body fat is over 50%. So, my primary goal for this challenge is to be under 50% so I register on the machine.
I also set my fitness minute goal at 3 hours a week (which I thought of as more a minimum). I was able to log over five hours of swimming this week in spite of the fact that it has been A very busy (for me) week.
As an aside, I am using a Misfit Shine fitness tracker to track my swimming (laps, duration, etc) and I hit 150 miles swimming this week since I started using it.
What are your fitness goals?
