How many steps did you do on this day?
Post how many steps you did on this day.
You might like to also post your goal, and any comments you care to make, like this:
Sandi
Goal: 10,000 steps
Today: 9750
Comments: Was doing last steps in ads whilst watching tv and fell asleep in between!
Or whatever you like that you think will help keep you on track!
Post at the end of today, or post in the morning of the 2nd!
I don't know about you guys, but my activity level has taken a major backseat, and I'm ready to get MOVING again!
I'm making a New Year's Resolution to walk 10,000 steps on the pedometer every single day, and i want YOU to join with me so we can keep each other on track!
You can SET YOUR OWN GOALS! You don't have to have yours be 10,000 like me.
The goal is to post in comments EVERY DAY how many steps you walked, but it's totally up to you how often you post.
There is NO competition between members of the 10K club, however there may be prizes from time to time for EVERY MEMBER who has achieved their goal and posted their steps every single day for a certain time period, e.g one week or one month.
Each day I will post the DATE and all you do is post in comments what your pedometer reading was for that day. We will be running one day late with posts because you won't know your count for that day until the day is completely over.
You could also post your goal each day.
eg. Each day you might post something like this in the comments
Sandi
Goal: 10,000 steps
Steps today: 5650
Comments: Was travelling on a plane all day so movement was limited.
So, what say? Anyone game to join me?
Start here by announcing what YOUR goal number of steps each day is!
We begin daily posts January 1st!
Well, the Fit Club might be at a stand still but that doesnt mean its gone. The Fit Club has faded away and has turned into the Steeple Media Fit Club Fit Show! EVERYONE is invited to come and hang out with me and everyone else every Tuesday night!
Tonight is the next show so I encourage you to come check it out!
Here's a basic outline of the show... (expect a little different tonight)
1 minute challenge - you do a 1 minute exercise two times then average your score. You type it in chat and the person with the highest wins a prize pick off of the prize board!
Fit Know it all challenge - this is a Trivia round thats all about fitness and calories and such. I ask 5 questions, the person who gets the most correct also gets to pick off of the prize board.
Fit-Go-Round challenge - this is a totally cool challenge that is 100% interactive. I start it off by giving an exercise (like 5 crunches) and then everyone does them. I also call out someone's name. That person gives the next exercise. This one goes for a few minutes. The person who the exercise lands on, wins a pick off of the prize board.
5 minute TEAM challenge - I pair everyone up. The pairs who earn the highest amount of reps or last the longest wins this challenge. Both earn a pick off of the prize board and if they match they both win the prize!
Due to recent water damage in my "studio" (actually my bedroom lol) Tonight's show will be a Best Of show starting at 9:00 PM EDT. The winner of each challenge will receive 5 Fit Bucks.
There is a raffle scheduled in a few weeks for some awesome prizes!
Also, if you join us for the Fit Show, you can create a Profile Page in which you can share with all your fit friends! This is also where your "Safe" is. Thats where you store all your Fit Bucks. If you dont have a page, then you have no where to keep the Fit Bucks 
You can spend the Fit Bucks in the Fit Shop. This shop has tons of stuff including a $5 amazon.com Gift Certificate, Raffle tickets, and some Fit Show Power-ups!
If you have any questions, post them here. Also if you plan on coming to tonights show, let me know here! So I can expect you tonight 
Just a couple things for you today.
First off, I have set a couple more goals than the "required" 5. Here they are:
6. Dont eat any evening snacks.
and
7. Keep a photo Journal of what I eat in the forums.
So, starting today at lunchtime, I will take a picture of what I ate and post it in the forums. I will photograph EvErYtHiNg I eat... I've seen people do this and it works for them. I actually forgot to take a picture of breakfast lol.
If you want to set more than that minimum of 5 goals, go ahead! Hopefully I will email everyone tonight and get point allocations to them. I was really busy yesterday. But the new tile floor is in :) looks soo nice
This is just a reminder that it is Week 1 of the NEW Fit Club. I hope to see everyone's goals today so I can tell you how to allocate points. You can email or post your goals but today is the final deadline (unless I already talked to you or know where you are).
Have a nice day everyone!
My main goal is to make all these goals.
Here are my goals for Fit Club.
1. Drink 8 glasses of water a day
2. Make 1 healthy choice a day
3.Do "trunk" exercises 20 minutes a day
4. Pedometer - 60,000 steps a week
5. Eat a serving of fruits and vegetables each day
Good luck to all!
Alright, here it goes...
Here are my goals for Fit Club :)
1. Exercise for 20 minutes a day on the treadmill (or some other exercise) and do 30 minutes of Tae Bo daily
2. Eat 1 piece of fruit a day
3. Eat salad for lunch
4. Hit 5000 steps before lunch
5. Drink 8 glasses of water a day and only one can of soda
The program is an 8 week program but can change. I decided
to lower the number of weeks because we were almost half way through the last “version”
of Fit Club and just want to give this one a go.
GOALS
Your task this week is to pick out some goals that you wish
to keep up with. You need to have 5 goals. Goals can be anything fitness
related, for instance: “My goal is to reach 5000 steps before lunch time” or “My
goal is to eat some sort of salad for lunch every day” or even “My goal is to
take a hike once a week.” You will also set a 6th goal between you
and your Fit Partner.
These are YOUR goals.
You can also change your goals. For instance if your goal is
30 minutes of exercise a day and you want to up your goals, you can! Just email
me and it’s changed. So your new goal could be (to keep up with the example…)
45 minutes. You cannot change your goals more than once a week.
I can also suggest a change in your goals but you do not
have to take my suggestion.
WEEK OUTLINE
Week 1- Pick your goals. You must blog about your goals.
Week 2-7- Once a week, you will email in and report on your
goals. You also can attend the Steeple Media Fit Club Fit Show to earn extra
points and many other VERY cool prizes!
Week 8- Follow-up journal – all contestants must write a
blog post about the experience.
POINT SYSTEM
I’m not 100% sure how points will be awarded yet. I think I
will make that decision after everyone makes their goals. I may base points off
of your individual goals. Remember, you only have to report on 6 days a week
(The weekend still includes a “day off”)
REPORTING
Later this week, I will post a sample email for you to see
how your email to me should look like.
One question you will be asking yourself is “Do you deserve
a bonus this week?” and have to explain to me why you deserve the bonus and the
amount.
Just like any other thing you do, Fit Club has some rules…
1. Anyone can enter over the age of 13. To receive a prize, you must reside in
the United States.
2. Prizes are to be determined and also how to win is to be determined.
Any contestant is eligible to win one or all prizes as long as they register by
entry date. Any data submitted on the form over the course of the 10 weeks will
be used and counted as a submission.
3. Any data submitted may be published, along with name/pseudonym of your
choice.
4. This contest is 100% HONOR based.
5. This is NOT a weight loss program. I will not ask your weight at any time.
However, if you would like to record your weight changes over the course of the
program, you are welcome to do so and to share those results with us.
6. All contestants must complete a registration questionaire and must agree to
publish ONE final blog post in week 10 describing their experience. The post
should be a minimum of 150 words. I will also ask 1-2 members a week to post
their progress. That post should also be a minimum of 150 words.
7. You should NOT undertake this program without a doctor's consent if you can
say YES to any of the pre-registration questions.
8. Neither I nor SteepleMedia can be held responsible for any injury resulting
from taking part in this program. If you do take part, it is at your own risk
and it is presumed you have your physician's approval if needed.
So, Please get “Goal posting!” If
you are reading this and are not a member of Fit Club, email zach@steeplemedia.com and I will give
you a questionnaire to fill out.
