I am a Fitbit fanatic, but it hasn't always been that way. When I first got my Fitbit Flex about a year ago, it was very low key. I got my steps, checked how many calories I burned, tracked my sleep - the usual stuff.

I didn't have that many friends that I had connected with over Fitbit, so the potential for exciting races to the mountaintops was low. There are only so many times you can challenge your girlfriend before getting bored of it.

That all changed when I ran into the Step God Ronald P in the Workweek Hustle.

The Workweek Hustle is a Fitbit challenge to see who can get the most steps over the workweek. My only friend on Fitbit who is not my girlfriend invited me to "hustle," with some of her friends, one of them being the Step God Ronald P. himself.

Ronald P. is no ordinary human. This man must drink turbo drive in the morning because once he hits the pavement he doesn't stop. His workweek hustle ascendancy often feels preordained, clearing at least 20,000 steps every day.

Ronald P. acts like a benevolent God, cheering others accomplishments and the like, but there is something villainous about only being able to see someone's first name and the first letter of their last name. It is just vague enough that you don't really know them, but is also just familiar enough to develop an emotional attachment to conquering them. It is perfect for crying out and shaking your first at the stars, "CURSE YOU RONALD P!!!"

I start every week saying, "this is the week." To date it has not been, but this time this is the week. I am not just going to sit here and get walked over in the Workweek Hustle, and neither should you. Here are 5 steps for you to conquer your own Ronald P.'s and claim victory in the Workweek Hustle.

1. Walk to lunch

Simple enough. You have a little break, this is a perfect low key opportunity to get some extra steps in. This might not get you beating Ronald P., but it's a start.

2. Quick Feet!

This is really where you can make up some difference. Any time you have some down time you can start repping 'em out. This is bound to up your step count and improve your footwork out on the court. Ronald P., we are coming for you

3. Shakeweight

Just look at how much fun they are all having with that shakeweight. Some might call it unethical to get steps this way but I just call it a nice workout, plus its fun for the whole office. Just get your shake on while writing that memo and voila you are soon to be step champion and the talk of the town.

4. Get a dog

How are you going to turn down those eyes when they want to walk. This is good for at least two additional step journeys a day, especially when you don't feel like it.

5. Run a marathon EVERY DAY

I have come to the conclusion that this is the only way to beat Ronald P. The Step God does not succumb to mortal challenges. It takes superhuman, Herculean efforts to dethrone him. My training begins today. I welcome you to join me.
