Spring 2017 Carb Cycle Commitment Dates:Begin Sunday March 12th – End Sunday April 30th Prizes:Prizes will be awarded to FIRST & SECOND PLACE**There will be NO weekly updates/leader board. We’ve found the leaderboards discourage as many people as they encourage. This is a commitment to YOU. Everyone’s focus should be on them & not their standing within the challenge. The reward for everyone is working towards their goals without caving to temptation. Stay focused. Remain positive. Work hard. When things get hard don’t retreat, reload.****If you are a non-camper you must work out on your own**WORKOUTS – WORTH A TOTAL OF 70 POINTS - 10 points per week for completing 5 workouts You will receive 10 points for completing 5 workouts a week.

Taking photos/measurements is a great way for you to know where you started and document how far you have come. Tracking is a great way to stay motivated. You live with you daily, so it can be hard to notice all the changes (big & small) you have made.**Submit your WHAT & WHY by Sunday March 19th before 11:59 pm - WORTH A TOTAL 50 POINTS If you want to be successful for a life time at your personal journey, you need a CLEAR-CUT picture of where you want to go. NOW IS NO TIME TO BE VAGUE, “I want to be healthier,” is NOT an acceptable answer. Your WHAT & WHY must include:A SPECIFIC goal – precise details. What EXCATLY will you achieve over the next 8 weeks? It must be MEASURABLE – What you will achieve must be measured to verify whether it was achieved or not. It must be quantifiable. We encourage you to regularly measure your progress to see if you are on track. This will allow you to adjust along the way. NUMBERS DON’T LIE.You must set a goal that is ATTAINABLE – Not too difficult or idealistic. If you do this you are setting yourself up for FAILURE ON DAY 1. This goal must be one you know that you can keep every single day, this will lead to success and eliminate feelings of failure. Make your what & why RELEVANT – It should be important enough to you that you’ll want to make the necessary sacrifices to achieve it. It must be a PRIORITY in your life. Keep in mind, your what & why are TIME SENSITIVE – This will aid in staying on track. You don’t want to get side tracked and not accomplish it. There should be a sense of urgency to it. There is no wiggle room for your goals. DO NOT USE THE WORDS, “I WANT TO TRY….” Why? That plants the seed of avoidance and gives you a way out. Submit your goal with I WILL! You need to declare your goal…. ”I will finish on April 30th.” Submit why your goal is important to you. WHY do you want to lose weight (no BS answers)? DEFINING YOUR WHY is the driving force of your journey and is something that should not be taken lightly. YOUR WHY IS YOUR MOTIVATION. YOU MUST PLACE YOUR WHAT & WHY IN MULTIPLE PLACES – YOU NEED TO SEE IT ALL DAY LONG – WHATEVER IT TAKESAs a screen saver on your phone and/or computerRefrigeratorPost-it note in your carIn sharpie on your daily water bottleSubmit HOW YOU PLAN TO SUCCEED by Sunday March 19th before 11:59 pm - WORTH A TOTAL 50 POINTS Success doesn’t just happen!
