Fitocracy

edited July 18 in Tech
An exciting new way to log your workouts and make fun of Ryan for being a pussy. Perhaps you've heard of Fitocracy? If not, I shall explain as well as I can. It is like a social network based around logging activities which receive points. For example, a set of 20 push-ups will yield 40 points, running for x minutes at y speed or z distance will yield n points, etc. And you can level up. You can also gain extra points by completing quests such as, "O Hai Abs" Do a set of 20 crunches and earn an additional 50 points. There are also achievements to unlock which earn you badges.

Oh, my. Were you so excited that you already clicked the link and found that you couldn't join? That's because you need an invitation from one of fitocracy's awesome members.

Everybody should join! There should be a few hundred invites on this code. http://ftcy.co/mPWiDO

If that one doesn't work, try one of these. http://ftcy.co/na3lFJ http://ftcy.co/pzVCxa http://ftcy.co/pYzsx6 http://www.fitocracy.com/register/?invite_code=82CRB http://www.fitocracy.com/register/?invite_code=E2WFJ

If they're all used up, use my invite code: http://ftcy.co/mXNddB (I only have 9, so please try the others first)

Let us know if you join and what your username is. I'm YashinNashi and Ryan is Serephel.

    Adam's post was almost spambot like at first glance.

    Good. I was trying to sound like an info-mercial. Now, seriously, everybody join up. You'll enjoy it. And if you've been looking to get more exercise it's a really good motivator. You don't have to go crazy, just a little bit. And there are lots of exercises listed on there (most with descriptions now) that you can try out. You might find a few that you really like. You can also log sports activities and other miscellaneous stuff. It's in beta, so the less common types of exercise aren't all there yet. But it's still fun anyway.

    This could also have been a sequel to idiocracy where fat people inherit the earth. That is until you realise nobody loves fat people and thus they cannot breed.

    Does sex count as an exercise? If not, I'm not in.

    I doubt they track it, but I don't really think you need Fitocracy to motivate you to "work out"

    You can put it in as "Other Cardio".
