We’re bringing the battle of the sexes into the world of fitness. Forget every previous gender debate that ever occurred. I don’t care if men are from Venus and Women are from Mars, if Bobby Riggs had no chance against Billie Jean King, or if the Twitterverse thinks that I’m much funnier than my fiancé. (they do)
This challenge tests something much bigger: Accountability. Throw out excuses about one gender being physically or emotionally superior. In this battle, everything is equal. This is a test of will power:
Who wants it more?
Who genuinely cares enough about their health and fitness to make it a daily part of their life?
And how much can your activity inspire an entire gender to join your efforts?
This challenge will answer all of these questions—and help you achieve your healthy living goals along the way. (while offering some amazing prizes)
Here’s how it works:
The challenge is simple: Be active 30 minutes per day.
It doesn’t matter if you walk, ride a bike, lift weights, move boxes, go swimming, or do the Cha-Cha. We just want you to get up and move. Have some fun, break a sweat and make activity a consistent part of your day.
Each day log onto MyPlate, track your fitness activity (and your eating habits, if you’d like), and then post about what you did on the group challenge page. The more frequent you post and make comments about your activity, the more likely you are to win.
If you’re man, sign up here.
If you’re a women, this is your place.
The prizes:
Each week we’ll assess who was more active: Men or Women. It will be dependent on your consistent daily activity and how frequently you post on the group page and motivate the rest of your sex to be active. So reach out to your friends and family and have them join. Spread the word on Facebook and Twitter. After all, it’s your health and a chance to influence others.
At the end of each week, we’ll assess which gender was more active. And from the winning gender we’ll select ONE winner who will be featured as the “Member of the Week,” in our newsletter. We’ll also feature the winner on our Facebook profile page.
This is your chance to be the face of health and fitness for millions.
