180-Day Challenge

Rules & Examples

Everything that counts toward weekly points, plus example scorecards so everyone knows how the math works.

Weekly scoring overview (163 max)

Consistency is the biggest driver. Effort bonuses are tiered and capped. Base weekly score is 128, plus up to 35 in monthly bonuses.

Consistency (max 40)

Any workout day counts once, even if multiple workouts happen the same day. Cold bath logs do not count toward consistency days.

Example: Workouts on 4 different days = 4 × 8 = 32 points.

Endurance points (shared max 25)

Run, steady bike, and trail bike all feed one endurance category with a shared 25-point cap.

Run tiers (20+ min)

20–29 min10 pts
30–44 min11 pts
45–59 min12 pts
60–74 min13 pts
75–89 min14 pts
90+ min15 pts
Steady bike examples: 40 min = 22.9 run-equivalent min (10 pts). 60 min = 34.3 run-equivalent min (11 pts).

Trail bike / MTB tiers

20–29 min11 pts
30–44 min12 pts
45–59 min13 pts
60–74 min14 pts
75+ min15 pts
Shared cap example: Run 30 min (11) + steady bike 60 min (11) + trail bike 45 min (13) = 35, capped at 25 points.

Strength points + bonuses (max 30)

Each strength session must be 30+ minutes. Tiered points stack per session.

30–44 min4 pts
45–59 min5 pts
60–74 min6 pts
75–89 min7 pts
90–104 min8 pts
105+ min+1 per 15 min
Example: Strength sessions 60 + 90 + 45 min = 6 + 8 + 5 = 19 points. Add push-up bonus (+5) = 24 (cap 30).

Conditioning points (max 7)

Each conditioning session must be 10+ minutes. Longer sessions earn more.

10–14 min5 pts
15–19 min6 pts
20+ min7 pts
Example: One 15-minute stair session = 6 points.

Cold bath points (max 6)

Each cold bath log needs at least 2 minutes to count, with a weekly cap of 2 logs.

2+ min cold bath3 pts
Weekly max6 pts
Example: 3 cold bath logs (2, 3, 5 min) = 9, capped at 6 points.

Mobility + Meditation

These reward steady progress with partial credit.

Example: 35 minutes of mobility = 3 points. 4 meditation sessions = 4 points.

Monthly bonuses (+35 max)

Two separate monthly bonuses can stack in the same week.

Circuit = 3 rounds: 10 push-ups, 15 air squats, 20 walking lunges (10/leg), 30-sec plank. Bonuses hit in the week completed.

Example week scorecards

Two sample weeks showing how totals can add up.

Dad (full points example)

  • Consistency: 5 workout days = 40 points.
  • Endurance: Run 30 min (11) + steady bike 60 min (11) + trail bike 45 min (13), capped at 25.
  • Strength: 4 strength sessions (60, 75, 90, 105 min) = 30, capped at 25.
  • Push-up bonus: 200+ push-ups = +5 (strength total 30).
  • Conditioning: 20 min cardio burst = 7 points.
  • Mobility: 150 min = 15 points.
  • Meditation: 5 sessions = 5 points.
  • Cold bath: 2 logs (2+ min) = 6 points.
  • Monthly bonuses: Long run/circuit challenge = +20 and 10+ min cold bath = +15.
Total: 40 + 25 + 30 + 7 + 15 + 5 + 6 + 20 + 15 = 163 points.

Family member (solid week example)

  • Consistency: 5 workout days = 40 points.
  • Endurance: Run 20 min (10) + steady bike 40 min (10) + trail bike 30 min (12), capped at 25.
  • Strength: 3 strength sessions (30, 45, 60 min) = 4 + 5 + 6 = 15.
  • Push-up bonus: 300+ push-ups = +5 (strength total 20).
  • Conditioning: 20 min cardio burst = 7 points.
