Happy first day of fall! Let’s start the challenge off strong!
Remember to complete at least 6 days of Oxycise each week to be entered into the drawing. Check in daily on Facebook for extra support, or at the end of each week through these emails.
BONUS Entries: Each week we’ll also have a unique challenge to complete for an extra entry into the drawing. One extra entry per week completed.
Week 1 Bonus Challenge
Write down your personal health goals for the next 6 weeks and share them with a friend, loved one, your oxy-friends in the Facebook group, or even with us!
This might include drinking more water, fitting in 10 extra reps throughout the day, getting to the next Oxycise level, or fitting into a cute new pair of jeans. Find a goal you can be excited about and commit to weekly updates on your progress.
Sharing your progress and goals makes you more likely to accomplish them. A weight loss research study conducted by Ray Wu, the cofounder of Weilos, a social media platform for people to talk about their weight loss and fitness goals and share selfies of their progress, showed people who posted progress photos documenting their weight loss lost 1.2 lbs per week, compared to 0.27 lbs lost when they didn’t use the sharing platform. Strong social circles are seen as very effective in combatting obesity. In a research study published in Translational Behavioral Medicine, participants who published their weight loss progress on Twitter lost more weight than those who kept their progress to themselves.
If you choose to share them with a friend offline, be sure to let us know you did it for your extra entry in the drawing at the end of the challenge. Either post on Facebook, or through our weekly emails.
