CHALLENGE RULES
POINTS
Here’s how the points work:
You have the potential to earn 10 points every day
Nutrition: 5 points
Working out: 2 points
Sleep: 1-point
Mediation/Reading: 1-point
Stretching/Walking: 1-point
You will start each day with 5 points for Intermittent Fasting/nutrition. These are yours to keep if you abide by your Intermittent fasting schedule or your nutrition plan (i.e. 16-hour fast/8 hours of eating or whatever you chose). For this category, you will simply answer a “yes or no” for “I did it, or I didn’t do it” on your reporting page. It’s a 5 for a “yes” and 0 for a “no” (there are no scores of 1 etc…).
Here is a great resource for getting started with intermittent fasting: https://www.dietdoctor.com/intermittent-fasting
You can also earn 2 points every day for working out (at least 10 minutes), 1 point for sleep, and 1 point for mediating 5+ minutes a day or reading, 1 point for stretching or walking (at least 10 minutes). For each of these categories, you will simply answer a “yes or no” for “I did it, or I didn’t do it” on your reporting page. For the categories with 2 points, it’s a 2 for a “yes” and 0 for a “no” (there are no scores of 1).
NUTRITION RULES
The most important thing to remember about these rules is that these are the things that will cost you points. Will you “break the rules” during the challenge? Yes! Should you do everything you can to earn every point you can? Absolutely! That’s the game! These 8 weeks is the time to challenge yourself to go beyond what you would do by default.
WORKOUT RULES
Workout Rules
Don’t worry! This is not a game of doing a crazy exercise routine every day. Keep a regular exercise routine. On the days that you’re not going to “work out” you will perform “active recovery” (for at least 10 minutes) to earn your 2 points. That means that some days you will work out — go to the gym or put on your running shoes, and some days you will just move — take a light jog, do yoga, ride your bike or skate at the beach, walk to work rather than drive, even playing a game of catch or tossing the frisbee around! The main thing is to keep active each and every day.
SLEEPING RULES
Set a goal to improve your sleep ritual or habits. For example, going to bed 1-hour early and stick with it. This has to be concrete.
MEDITATION/READING RULES
Meditation rules complete any form of meditation for 5+ minutes. If you need some guidance I use Tony Robbin’s visual guided meditation every morning. Here is a link to it:

You can also earn your points if you read for 20-30 minutes.
STRETCHING/WALKING RULES
Spend 10 minutes a day either doing static stretching, yoga or walking to earn your point for the day.
I can help anyone with this category if you need help just ask.
