| |  | |  | Other suggestions to experience fun, enjoyable and effective competition Encourage your team and meet weekly to review team progress. This meeting can be informal and held outside the center. Develop a list of guidelines with consequences. For example: A penalty of $1 for missing a workout. The team member with the biggest weight loss in any given week is given "immunity" from penalties but the rest of the team owes a dollar. All penalty monies go into the "kitty". At the end of the competition, the biggest loser (weight) gets the "kitty" proceeds.
Send your teammates encouraging letters or emails to help them through the week. Approach your employer about sponsoring your team. Studies show that improved worker health provides for improved productivity and decreases in absenteeism. A huge savings to any employer! Ask for our help - we want to build solid foundations.
