There is nothing wrong with a little healthy competition, and the Go For The Gold Challenge delivers just the right dose of it! Inspired by the ancient Greek games, this challenge takes participants on a historical journey to learn about and practice exercises that mimic moves of competitors in the games originally held in Olympia!
This challenge can be configured as an individual- or team-based program and run for two- to six weeks. Through weekly fun facts and engaging "how-to" videos, this challenge encourages participants to move like an Olympian! Wellable Points are earned by tracking physical activity and completing creative weekly exercises, each inspired by a different event that took place during the ancient games.
In an individual-based challenge, for each Olympic Move a participant completes they will be entered into a raffle at the end of the challenge to win one of eight rewards. The total number of raffle winners can be increased or decreased based on the number of participants in the challenge and the rewards budget. Gold, silver, and bronze grand prizes will also be awarded to the first, second, and third place finishers, respectively.
The raffle structure helps stretch a rewards budget for maximum impact by encouraging participation throughout the challenge, as the odds of winning a prize increases with the more Olympic Moves a participant completes.
In a team-based challenge, for each Olympic Move a participant completes they will be entered into a raffle at the end of the challenge to win one of three rewards. The total number of raffle winners can be increased or decreased based on the number of participants in the challenge and the rewards budget. Gold, silver, and bronze grand prizes will also be awarded to participants on first, second, and third place teams, respectively.

Each week of the challenge, participants learn about a new Olympic Move by watching an engaging "how-to" video and reading a description of the Olympian-inspired exercise. The moves are physical activity exercises designed to be practiced without special equipment and can be completed anywhere, regardless of fitness level. Participants earn Wellable Points after logging the completion of each Olympic Move. Each move can be logged for Wellable Points once during the challenge but can be practiced as often as the participant would like. Based on the number of weeks in the challenge, the Olympic Moves include:
There is no limit to the number of participants that can be part of a team, so teams can be any size. Wellable recommends creating teams of between four and eight members to ensure the benefits of being part of a team are achieved while maintaining accountability.
Teams are ranked by the average number of Wellable Points for all members of a team. This means that teammates with zero Wellable Points during a challenge will lower the score of the entire team, which is why encouraging your teammates to stay active throughout the challenge is so important.
