The Challenge is almost Over.. Lets Move For a Better World..

This post goes out to everyone who got involved in our Lets Move For a Better World challenge that took place recently across the world and is ongoing until the 19th of March 2016.  I am sharing moments in the gym during the challenge. We have had some incredible response over these few weeks and moves are still being collected. A little recap about what the challenge was about: There is a need to get communities moving and living healthy and what better way than to put up a challenge that will remind people to be game changers in their communities by competing for an ultimate price which is to donate Technogym equipment to a charity of choice as a facility and a corporate which in this case will be SAB Rosslyn.

So as every member accesses the gym, they use a TGS key which is a little gadget that records your moves and tallies it for you when you use any equipment that has an TGS slot inside the gym,which is later inserted into a TGS Kiosk which then registered moves collected by you for the duration of the workout and adds it with other members' moves in the gym. This then gets populated onto our scoreboard, (to those who dont understand this jargon you need to access the gym to understand this technology)

Moving on from there, this morning we are still standing at the number 2 spot in the whole country and at number 18 in the whole world. In our cluster of gyms we are number 1. Now with about 21 countries competing for this challenge I must say we are doing pretty well as a newbie to the challenge. 

We only registered about 7 gyms in the country and there are countries with over 70 facilities competing in places like Germany and Portugal. In the beginning we started slow with just over 2000 moves and in 2 days we were raised the bar thanks to your dedication. 

This goes to show how teamwork, well played can achieve goals beyond comprehension .

The top 6 achievers at this moment are

1. Theodor Kganyago  who collected 17332 moves over a period of 2 weeks
2. Denis Mafoko 15 616 moves
3. Tshepo Isaacs- 14940 moves
4. Malesela Ledwaba- 12 191 moves
5. Alfred Tladi- 11 518 moves
6. Jim Mako- 10 902 moves

This is such a big achievement for the plant and for the gym and I would like  to encourage everyone to keep participating and pushing for those moves. It is super humbling to work with people of your calibre and I really want to say Thank You for being part of this challenge, Always remember your body is your wealth, take care of it. Wellness is the FUTURE..
