New Year Weight Loss Challenge

 

The most popular New Year's resolution is to lose weight but it can be very hard to stay motivated. Want to know the most effective way to lose weight? Being accountable and having a support system!

Take the New Year Weight Loss Challenge and get the kick start you need. 

This is an eight-week challenge starting Jan 7 and ending Mar 1, 2019.

Participants will meet at Graves Fitness Center on Monday, Jan 7, between 12 and 1 p.m. for an initial weigh-in and to receive program instructions. 

Register by Friday, Jan 11. 

The program is broken up into three age categories by gender: 18 - 34, 35 - 50 and 50 +.

Participants will meet at Graves Fitness Center every Friday anytime between 12 and 1 p.m. to measure body weight.

Each participant will be given an eight week activity log to track daily exercise and diet. 

While the main reward is losing weight, for added incentive, the male and female from each category that loses the largest percent of their original (first weigh-in) weight will receive a $10 gift card.
