The end of 2020 is within sight! Huzzah! Welcome to our final challenge for the year!
So what’s the format?
We are doing this 8 week challenge ONE WEEK AT A TIME.
No skipping ahead and no cutting corners.
So why are we doing this one week at a time? A few reasons actually!
1. To ensure that people don’t get overloaded and overwhelmed. This is 8 FULL weeks of training and we have to pace ourselves with quality time management!
2. We’re are about quality – not quantity. We don’t want to overload you with everything in the first week. We want to stagger the introduction of information and skills. You are more likely to succeed with learning 2 or 3 things a week and mastering them as opposed to trying to learn 36 things in the first week and then not being able to allocate the time to practice and master them.
Challenge ACCEPTED
In our 8 week challenge – YES! We have challenges to try and achieve. Each week there are 10 challenges to select from. Now the thing to be VERY mindful of here is that to consider the week a success – you need to have attempted and successfully achieved SIX Challenges. Why not 10? Because there are only 7 days in a week and we have to be realistic that most of these challenges will be something outside your usual day to day activities. Secondly – There WILL be things that may be outside your ability and skill level and you will have to attempt, practice and eventually succeed in that challenge at a later date. This particular point is a huge thing – You need to be okay with discovering things you cannot do. Embrace that positive attitude and work towards it! The reward is not only physical but mental as well!
As you go week to week, you will notice that many of these challenges aren’t particularly scary and they certainly aren’t out of reach. They may be a stretch and that is why they are called a CHALLENGE. We want you to attempt as many as you can. Get Six and that’s the goal but hit all ten in a week? Well that is maximising your chances for some incredible changes in your mindset and physique.
“I missed out on completing a challenge in a week. Can I go back and complete it later on in the challenge?
Absolutely. The thing to remember here is that this is not a sprint. This is 12 weeks of training and nutrition. The more you move and the better you eat – it can only translate into better results for you. HOWEVER – If you think completing 8 weeks of challenges in the last week of the challenge will result in GREAT results – The question will be – What were you trying to achieve in the first place? If you’re a completionist – great – but if you did this challenge to truly make improvements to your health and fitness – FOLLOW the week by week process and you WILL see results.
