The Frederick Wellness Challenge is a 10 week, robust competition, filled with amazing tools, fun and exciting events, accessibility to Frederick's top health and wellness experts, and the opportunity for the winners to take home an array of wellness prizes. The winners will be defined as the participants, among all individuals competing, who achieves the greatest percentage of increase in their overall health. This year there will be prizes awarded to the top male and female competitors.
Each competitor's level of health is measured using the Creating Wellness System. This system is a total revolution in mind and body wellness. It combines the latest scientific technology with the most advanced assessment tools and motivational program ever developed.
Your Challenge experience will begin with your initial Creating Wellness Assessment which is broken up into 2 parts. First is your Lifestyle Questionnaire, which you must fill out prior to your scheduled assessment time. Upon your arrival for your assessment you will check in with our Frederick Wellness Challenge Concierge. They will assist you with any questions you may have and direct you to your private assessment station. During the assessment we will be measuring your weight, girth, lung capacity, blood pressure, resting pulse rate, and strength as well as accurately measuring your body composition, and stress responsivity.
In Short, The Creating Wellness System, including the LifeStyle Questionnaire and the Assessment, measures and records such factors as nervous system function, body composition, stress response - and over 50 other factors that are crucial indicators of your over-all wellness while providing us with a measurable quotient which allows to to rate our level of health.
Unique to Creating Wellness is the Wellness Quotient (WQ) - a number value that indicates where your personal level of wellness falls on the wellness continuum— think of it as your Wellness IQ. It is the sum total of your present Physical, Bio-Chemical and Psychological well-being—and the foundation from which you will begin to create wellness in your life. The continuum is a scale between 0 and 200. A 100 represents ideal health for your age. A person who scores less than 100 is older than his/her age and a person who scores above 100 is younger than his/her age.
What is Your Wellness Quotient?
Once your assessment is complete you will be invited to join your fellow competitors at our Kick-Off event which will be your first opportunity to receive your Assessment results which consist of a 5 page report and your personal Wellness Quotient.&nb In addition to receiving your results you will also have an opportunity to meet your other team members, your group trainer and you will begin your Frederick Wellness Challenge Journey by participating in your very first Adventure Challenge.
Teams will be created for Various Challenges with the soul purpose of offering you an opportunity to become better aquainted with your fellow challenge members. This will assist you in staying motivated and inspired to complete the program. Although you are a part of a team during that specific event, each competitor is competing individually for the Grand Prize.
It is our goal to create a level playing field for all participants and give everyone, despite their starting point, the same opportunity to win this challenge. In order to do this, your Wellness Quotient as described above, will be translated into what we call a Challenge Quotient.
Your Challenge Quotient is the inverse of your Wellness Quotient and a representation of how challenged your health is. In other words it tells you how far away you are from ideal health. Unlike your Wellness Quotient, the lower your Challenge Quotient is the healthier you are. For example a competitor who lowers his/her Challenge Quotient from 100 to 80 during the 10 week event, will have demonstrated a 20% improvement in health. The Competitor with the highest percentage of improvement in overall health will win the grand prize.
Following the conclusion of the competition, participants will receive their final Creating Wellness Assessment and their final Challenge Quotient.
In addition to the Challenge's amazing group training sessions which consist of cardio, endurance, and resistance training, our special health and fitness events such as our yoga fusion and Adventure Challenges, and Creating Wellness Assessments, each participant will also receive an array of wonderful online tools that can be utilized to improve their Challenge Quotient over the duration of the competition. Most of all you will be surrounded by the Frederick Wellness Challenge Family whose primary goal is to assist you in being the best you possible in all three dimensions of life.
