Let's have a contest. It's just for fun really, it won't make you rich, it won't make you famous. But it just may give you props for making the most physical improvement among the members of Discuss Fitness.
************************************************** *****
The rules are simple, I started a
"sign up" thread in this forum. Everyone who wants to play along will have to post in that thread that they wish to join the contest. You will have from today until December 30 to let us know that you want to get in. The contest begins Dec 1 so sign up early, but to encourage more participation, late joiners can get in until Dec. 30...but why wait? If you wait then you lose a month of improvement time.
When the contest begins each participant will have a contest training thread in the contest forum (Aviv, the admin has said we can do this) and you will have to update it weekly with what you are doing. You will have the weekend of Nov30-Dec2 to post your "before" pics.
The contest will run from Nov 30 until the first weekend in May. On Saturday at midnight of that weekend, your "after" pic must have been submitted.
This will give everyone the time to bulk over the holidays then have enough time to cut for the final pics.
Once all the pics are in, I will post a side by side comparison of before and after of each participant and the membership will each have ONE vote for who they think the "physically most improved" is. This IS NOT a best physique contest, it's about most improved over time. This gives the fat guy or the skinny girl an equal footing with or perhaps even an advantage over the seasoned bodybuilder. Think about it, some like Todd or MostMuscle...simply don't have much room to improve as they are too good anyway. The rest of us...well, here is some free motivation to work hard.
Picture rules: Full body front "relaxed"...yeah, we've got to see those wheels. Full body back "relaxed". The day the pics are taken must be proven with a national newspaper (date showing) present in the pic + a third pic of the newspaper close up must be taken.
No late entries will be accepted in order to be fair. If you want to hide your face, go ahead.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO PARTICIPATE. Members, mods, admins, your friends who you can get to join the forum. Bodybuilders, powerlifters, strongmen/women, martial artists, bodyweight gurus, accountants, firefighters, cops, even vampires...everyone. Remember we will be happy to help them along the way with workout and diet assistance if they wish. This is about making us all better after all that is what this forum is all about.

Prizes
They are kind of lean at this point. I'm negotiating with some possible donators but don't know what we will get, they will be distributed to the winners fairly whatever it is we get. Right now we are up to promises of some whey and creatine.
SO THAT'S IT, NOW YOU KNOW WHY I'VE BEEN DROPPING HINTS TO GET PALE AND FAT FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. THIS IS GOING TO BE FUN SO BE SURE TO TAKE PART AND GET YOUR FRIENDS TO JOIN TOO.
Join in, have fun, and blessed be.
