How To Play

Roll dice each day to determine workout. If same number rolled 2 days in a row, rest day. Alternatively, establish POINT with dice roll. POINT ON: add dice total for workout index. 7 = hard workout, followed by auto rest day. If POINT rolled again, it’s a rest day. POINT OFF: 7 = rest day, start again next day. If same number rolled 2 days in a row, it’s a rest day.

Rules

OPTION 1

Simple: Roll the dice each day and do the workout indicated. If the same number is rolled two days in a row, it’s a REST day.

OPTION 2

Roll the pair of dice each day at workout time to determine the day’s workout; this establishes the POINT.

WHILE THE POINT IS ON:

  • Add the total of the dice to get the day’s workout index and perform the workout.
  • 7 is a HARD WORKOUT, followed by an automatic rest day.
  • If the POINT IS ROLLED AGAIN, THE POINT IS BACK OFF, and it’s a REST DAY.

WHILE POINT OFF:

  • 7 IS A REST DAY.
  • START AGAIN THE NEXT DAY.
