Are you up for The Challenge?

We are hosting an F45 challenge that will begin October 7th and run through November 21st. Expect to get connected with fellow F45er’s, set and reach goals, and make lifestyle changes that go beyond just 45 days! During this challenge participants will be split into teams and will have the opportunity to earn points for attending classes, wearing your heart rate monitor, and more! We will periodically update the chalkboard wall to check your team’s standing in the competition. The team with the most points will earn 25% off the Spring 2025 unlimited semester pass! 

How does the challenge work?

Assessments 

Once you register for the challenge, you can choose to participate in an optional assessment. You do not have to participate in an assessment to participate in the challenge, but this can track your progress throughout the 45 days. Use the F45 training app to track your progress and complete the assessment. The app has resources with nutrition information and has different recipes you can use to help you reach your goals! Go to your app store and search “F45 training app.” If you do not have a previous login, you can create one! With this account, you can set your individual fitness goals to work towards during this challenge! 

Teams: Red vs Blue 

Everyone who signs up for the challenge will be placed into either Team Red or Team Blue. The overall goal of the teams is to earn as many points as possible throughout the course of the 45 days. Each team will have a team captain, who will be one of our F45 coaches, to help fuel the competition and to hold everyone accountable. Whichever team has the most points at the end of the challenge will win!  

How Do You Earn Points? 

Below is a chart with all possible point values you can earn throughout the challenge. Our F45 team will be keeping track of your team’s points throughout the challenge to see which team is in the lead! If you take a Group Ex class or purchase a Lionheart, make sure you let your team captain or one of our other coaches know so we can ensure your points are counted. Keep an eye out for the F45 chalkboard wall throughout the challenge to see your team’s score in the competition.

45-Day Challenge Passes 

Participating in the challenge itself comes with no cost outside of your original purchase of an F45 pass. However, you can purchase a 45-Day Challenge Pass that will allow you to take as many F45 classes as you would like throughout the duration of the challenge (October 7th-November 21st). We will be reaching out to those registered for the challenge who do not have a current F45 pass on their account to confirm the plan to purchase a Challenge Pass. Once the pass is added to your account, you will need to stop into the Pro Shop to pay off your balance on your account. All payments can be processed in the Pro Shop. You must pay off your balance before taking your first F45 class of the challenge. 

Student: $40 
Member: $55
