4 Wellness Points Challenge Templates (With Point Values)
A points-based challenge lets you reward many kinds of healthy behavior in one place – steps, workouts, mindfulness, sleep, water and more. But where do you start with point values? Here are four ready-made wellness points challenge templates with exact values and 30-day goals, plus tips for adapting them to your team.

1. How the Point System Works
In YuMuuv, admins choose which activities count and how many points each one earns. Some activities sync automatically from phones and wearables (such as steps or exercise minutes); others are habits that participants mark as done each day (such as drinking enough water). For the details, read everything you need to know about YuMuuv's point system.
