The Pot o’ Gold Challenge is a usage challenge that encourages participants to work out 20 out of 31 days AND complete an InBody Assessment in March! Your progress will be tracked in the FFC+ app.
Challenge Dates
March 1, 2025 – March 31, 2025
You must opt in between February 21 – March 7, 2025.
How It Works
1. Opt-in – To confirm participation, visit the ‘My Dash’ screen on the FFC+ app and select ‘JOIN NOW’ on the pop up banner that asks if you’d like to participate. Please note, you must opt-in between 2/21-3/07.
2. Visit The Club – Check in to the club a minimum of 20 days during the challenge dates (only 1 check in per day counts).
3. Complete An InBody Assessment – Visit any FFC location to complete an InBody assessment. When taking the test, scan your barcode in the FFC+ app on the InBody machine to retrieve or set up your account. If you are a first time user, you will be prompted to add in your mobile number, height, age and gender (see screenshots below for assistance).
4. Track Your Progress – Keep tabs on your progress in the “My Dash” section of the FFC+ app. The MTD Checkins metric will be red until you hit 20 checkins, then it will turn green. Your InBody Test Date will say “N/A” until you complete 1 assessment. Upon completion, the date of your assessment will appear on the dashboard in green signifying you’ve completed this component of the challenge.
5. Stay Motivated – Receive tips, workout suggestions, and nutrition support from FFC experts.
6. Celebrate Your Results!
What’s The Prize?
When you complete the challenge, you’ll receive 1 Guest Pass + automatic entry to win the Pot o’ Gold – 2 lower level tickets to a Chicago Cubs game in April!
