More specific rules for the challenges
I'm really enjoying the challenges! They've made our group way more engaged, which is awesome.
But, the rules for the challenges are really broad; it's kinda easy to bend them and get ahead. For instance, someone could walk for a minute and get the same points as someone running for an hour – not exactly fair play, right?
I'm thinking if we could get more specific with the rules, we could create some really cool challenges that give our clients a better experience. For example:
Activity-specific challenges, like just running, walking, or another activity, where only a specific activity counts towards the challenge.
Setting a minimum time or distance (think 10 minutes or 1000 meters) – anything less doesn't cut it for the challenge.
Going for total distance or time challenges, where everything adds up instead of points, and you can hit a target threshold too.
A total steps challenge where every step counts as a point, or a daily step challenge, where you get points for hitting your daily step goal.
A protein goal challenge where you get points for hitting the daily protein goal, instead of all macros.
Oh, and having the option to start and end the challenges on specific dates would be gold. Then we can do monthly challenges, rather than just X number of weeks...
Just tossing these ideas out there.

I would like to be able to customize the challenge rule options more. THey are too broad and unfair. To have "complete workout" as a point but not everyone has the same 4/5/6 day split so the points are uneven and unfair.
Options:
Weekly points award if fitness program completed
Step Challenge / if you hit your step goal you get a point
Daily point if ALL habits are hit, not a point per habit (unfair for those who have 3 habits verse others who have 5)
