Changes or Improvements?

This challenge has 4 segments.   The goal is to take some time to improve your health and other areas of your life, with small, meaningful, day to day changes.  Everything is better with a friend, so ask someone to be your  partner.   The last day to accept the challenge is January 31st!

Pilates  Pilates has to be a part of the challenge.   With this challenge, I want you to make Pilates a part of your personal life.  You can decide the amount of time that is meaningful to you.  17 times a month, minimum, you need to do meaningful Pilates.  You decide what is meaningful.

Habits  While at first, 17 might seem like too large a number, you might be surprised at how many little things you've wanted to change in your life.  For some, it might be starting the day with a glass of water.  For others it might be putting lotion on every morning.  For some, it might be eating 7 fruits and vegetable or getting 7 hours of sleep.  You get to decide 17 things that are meaningful to you that you want to change.  (No, you don't have to make the habits public, just report daily on the # achieved)  You have 15 days to get that list of meaningful habits together!  Write them down now and start tracking your progress before the challenge begins.  Set yourself up for success!

Recipes  We all fall into routines.  This challenge item is one that will be shared with others.   To meet this challenge, we must consume 17 new recipes a month (featuring fruits or vegetables) and the recipe and/or photos must be posted on Happy Tree Pilates Facebook page. 

Cardio  Compared to the last two challenge items, this one is a breeze.   Cardio must be completed 17 days a month for at least 30 minutes.  Again, the choice is yours.  

Results   A form will be available on Happy Tree Pilates website for posting cardio, Pilates and Habits results daily.  Recipes must be posted on the Happy Tree Pilates Facebook page on the day they are created.    Also, on the facebook page, calendar files will be available for tracking on paper for your personal usage.  

Winner  The winner of the challenge will be the person scoring the most points.   The winner will receive a $100 gift card to Athletica.
