Anybody interested in a little "competition for motivation"-type challenge to help with losing weight?
I originally started TKD as a means for increasing fitness, and though it has helped, I still am not in as good as shape as I should be, far from it in fact.
A few caveats:
1. Honor based reporting. If you get your jollies by claiming to lose 10 lbs and you actually only lost 2, please don't join.
2. NOT a substitute for sound medical advice, Please consult your physician before starting any weight loss, diet, or fitness regime, etc, etc, etc.
3. Preferably for people who need to lose 20 or more lbs.
4. Weight loss reported once a week. Everyone starts as a white belt, when you lose 10 % of your goal, you get promoted to a yellow belt, etc, on up to Grand Master, which is 100% of your goal. It will make more sense once you see this in action. (I stole this idea from another website)
5. No prize at the end, unless MT administrators want to throw in a magnet or bumper-sticker? :uhyeah: Just the honor and glory of the rest of us admiring your achievements.
Either PM me or respond to this thread. I'd like at least 10 other participants to be part of the group, I'll post promotions once a week after everyone reports their lbs lost and goals.
Why is this Martial Arts related? I can only assume if I were fitter, I could kick higher, spar longer, strike stronger, and feel better overall.
Peace,
Melissa
