We Have Some Winners From Month 1!

After constant movement on the leaderboard throughout the 28 days of month one, we came out with two participants on top. The husband and wife duo, Pam and Rob Smith ended with 2160 points each! Following close behind in second place was Erin Gordon with 2030 points, and in third place was Darrell Chatten with 1930 points! Amazing work to each and every one of our participants! Keep up the great work to all!

Daily Challenges

The Nova Challenge features fun daily challenges released on an app called Obii, that are focused on overall wellness. There are multiple wellness components that the challenge hopes to create habits surrounding, including fitness, nutrition, mental health, rest and recovery, nature and community. This free challenge is meant to encourage Nova members to try new things and step outside their comfort zones to reach heightened physical, mental and spiritual health. 

Stay within your limits but push yourself.  Although the challenges may seem set in stone, with little to no alternatives for each task, remember that everything can be completed with modifications. 

While this is called a challenge, do not shy away from making the step towards healthier habits simply because you do not believe you can complete every task each day. Pick the challenges you would like to work on and try to complete those each day they arise. An example of this is deciding that burpees is not something you wish to focus on due to an injury, skip those and focus on completing the outdoor walks and nature walks each time they come up. 

May Focus

The Nova Challenge is broken down into three separate months each with its own focus. May will build on some of the fitness habits that were worked on during April but will have more of a focus on nutrition. If you are new to the challenge, you can decrease the repetitions or time for exercises that were built in April based on your levels. 

Community

Check the leaderboard at any time to see where you stand alongside the other members. While completing as many daily challenges as possible is the goal, do not stress yourself out about it. During the month of April, the community created within the group chat was fantastic. The Nova Team would like to thank every participant for creating a positive, safe and encouraging environment.
