Witness the Fitness Prop

[Stacks]

So, after a little discussion in IRC, it came up that 3 of us feel we need to get healthier, and more motivated. We decided we were all lacking on motivation and accountability, so figured a cardio prop-bet would help with both.

We've roughed out the rules, and will be tracking out progress here.

Rules
(1) Participants: Stacks, BooG, Kiwi

(2) 12 Week Commitment
[At least to start, will re-evaluate after 12 weeks]

(3) 5 days of cardio per week
[Week starts on Monday of respective Time-zone, ends Sunday]

(4) 30 minutes of cardio the 1st week
[Time will increase by 5 minutes every 2 weeks, thereby at the end of the 12 weeks, minimum daily cardio is 1hr.]

(5) Cardio Sessions must be 20 minutes minimum
[Thus cannot split up cardio sessions until minimum daily is at least 40 minutes. Then can split into two sessions if you so choose]

(6) $20 per missed day will be split and shipped to the other individuals at the end of the week
[Example: Miss 3 days, you owe $60, that needs to be split among the other 2 participants at the end of the week]

(7) $X/day will be evaluated at the end of 6 weeks, possibly staying the same or increasing.

(8) Each participant must at minimum update the blog at the end of the week with their weeks progress.

(9) A participant may buyout at any time for $5 per remaining day of 12 week period.

Fwiw, the "definition" of cardio has been discussed, and we have decided since not everyone is at the same starting point and interested in doing the same type of cardio, the underlying principle is to not cheat yourself, and to push yourself each session.

We will be taking each others words on the progress, and I feel that's easily okay with this group of guys. Any kind of progress update is fine, as well as any posts from others with ideas/tips/nudes/etc is welcome.

Good Luck Guys.
