Please note: Health and Exercise needs vary by individual. Our points are not designed for implying minimum or maximum health benefits in each category, but rather to promote a balanced approach to wellness. As a result, a variety of lifestyle improvement categories are pursued to achieve greater health. Moderate exercise includes brisk walking; however, we do not recommend more than 180 minutes weekly of intense exercise.
Must be 18 or older and a U.S. resident to register. All adults are invited to sign up. Children are welcome to participate alongside you for fun! By joining in this challenge you are attesting that you are physically conditioned to do so and you accept all liability therefore arising from your participation. Posting on social media (Facebook) is required to have the chance to win bonus prizes. If you do not have a social media account you may ask someone to post on your behalf.
