Monday seeds the bracket
You’re placed against real players and seeded rivals at your own tier. Nobody starts the week ahead of anybody.
BB5 turns everyday habits — steps, water, sleep — into a competitive weekly league instead of a static checklist. You're bracketed against real players and seeded rivals every Monday through Sunday, climbing or dropping across 42 ranked leagues from Bronze to Mythic. A separate Gems currency, earned through promotions and perfect days, unlocks streak freezes and XP boosts in the shop, while lifetime XP stays untouched as a permanent stat.
BB5 is based on Coach Kyle’s Big Boy 5 program.

BB5 is out now on the App Store for iPhone, as Big Boy 5 — 5 Daily Habits. The Google Play build is in final testing. BB5 is a subscription app — plans and any free trial are shown in the app before you pay.
Steps, water, sleep, protein, and one workout — hard-coded, auto-synced from Apple Health or Health Connect, and scored the same way every day.
Why trackers fail
Every habit tracker asks you to compete with yourself, which works right up until the week you don’t feel like it. Nothing is at stake, so nothing is lost, and the streak quietly ends on a Tuesday.
What BB5 does
Monday seeds you into a league against real players and seeded rivals. Sunday night, the top three go up and the bottom two go down. Standing still is a result, and it’s a bad one.
The week
You’re placed against real players and seeded rivals at your own tier. Nobody starts the week ahead of anybody.
Steps, sleep and workouts arrive from Apple Health or Health Connect, read-only. Water and protein are two taps each.
Top three promote, bottom two demote. Gems from a clean week buy the streak freezes that cover the next bad one.
The ladder
Promotion and relegation run every single week, which is the whole point. Finishing fourth in Mythic I is a genuinely different week from finishing sixth, and the table says so on Sunday night rather than in a monthly summary.
The parts that keep a bad week from becoming a lost month.
Eleven series across steps, water, sleep and streaks, plus a few nobody tells you about.
Spend gems on a freeze and a missed day stops being the end of the streak.
Going five-for-five drops gems. The shop turns them into freezes and XP boosts.
An Android widget shows the daily habits and streak without opening the app. It arrives with the Google Play release.
Every habit is worth 20 XP. Clear all five and BB5 stacks a 100 XP perfect-day bonus on top. That is the exact scoring that moves you up the weekly league.
