AFC VIDEO SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

VIDEO SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

In order to qualify, you must complete all the qualifier workouts following the provided movement standards, workout flow, and video submission guidelines. All athletes competing for an invitation to the in-person Adirondack Fitness Challenge (Rx or Scaled) must submit all videos prior to the score submission deadline. NO exceptions.

For help submitting video links after your score submission WATCH THIS VIDEO.

Please use the following video submission guidelines when completing each of the workouts to ensure that your video and score meets our outlined standards. AGAIN - we will not be asking you for specific workout videos. We are asking you for all the workout videos prior to the score submission deadline. For deadlines please read our Event Guide.


  • Create a YouTube or Vimeo account. Use only these two methods for video submission.

  • Use any video recording device to capture your workout, but you are responsible for the video quality (i.e., if we cannot verify the movements, your video may be rejected).

    • Before the workout begins:

      1. The athlete must identify themselves by their full name and identify which workout they are completing.

      2. The athlete must verify that the prescribed weights are being used by showing on the video the weights/bars to be used.

  • Where target or equipment measurements are involved, the athlete must verify prescribed height/distance by showing the measurement on video.

  • The athlete must be positioned during the workout so that the athlete’s completion of each movement as prescribed by the movement and workout standards may be verified

  • All athletes competing for an invitation to the in-person Adirondack Fitness Challenge (Rx or Scaled) must submit all videos prior to the Online Qualifier deadline. NO exceptions. Athletes will NOT need to have a video link to submit their score, but will need to post their video link prior to the Online Qualifier deadline.

  • Clocks & Time Required Workouts

    1. A clock in the video frame for the length of the workout is mandatory.

  • All video submissions must be one continuous shot, from the introduction of the athlete to verification of weights/measurements through the completion of the workout. Any editing of the video footage will lead to the video being deemed invalid and the athlete’s workout score for that submission will not be accepted.

  • Title your video with the workout number, and your name. Enter the workout and your time/reps in the description.

  • Once you have successfully uploaded your video, follow the instructions for submitting a video link into our scoring system, as well as enter your score into the scoring system.

  • Video submissions and scores may be Validated, Invalidated, or amended after review by the Adirondack Fitness Challenge (AFC) Judging Team.

  • Athletes submitting videos are advised to have someone strictly watching their movement to ensure each repetition meets standards, and that the camera captures the movement clearly. Penalties may be assessed due to an Athlete not meeting the movement standard or due to improper camera angles that do not permit the Judge to determine if the standard is being met.

  • All athletes competing for an invitation to the in-person Adirondack Fitness Challenge (Rx or Scaled) must submit all videos prior to the Online Qualifier deadline. NO exceptions. Athletes will NOT need to have a video link to submit their score, but will need to post their video link prior to the Online Qualifier deadline.
