• Contestant Guidelines

  1. Contestants must have significant weight to lose (at least 20 lbs as a general rule)
  2. Contestants must have a strong desire to change their life through weight loss and competition, and be open to different styles and techniques of training.
  3. Contestants are responsible for their own workout and weight loss success, and must communicate with the coaches if there are any issues preventing them from losing weight or if there is any discomfort or pain as a result of the workouts.
  4. Contestants must not take any weight loss supplements (metabolic enhancers or fat loss enhancing drugs)  HOWEVER: Multi-vitamins and omega 3 supplements are OK.  (Consequence = forfeit)
  Contestants must not dehydrate for purposes of weight loss.  (Consequence = forfeit)
  • Not adhering to the program guidelines could result in a forfeit of individual prizes or in severe cases forfeit of the competition. 

                  HOW TO DETERMINE PERCENTAGE OF WEIGHT LOST:

                              Formula:   Total weight lost / Starting weight =  %

         Example:  John lost 33 lbs in the program, and he started the program weighing 315 lbs.

  How to figure-   33/315 =  0.104  (move the decimal two to the right and you have your %)

                                           John lost a total of 10.4% during the program!
