Here are some challenge details you should know before you register:

• This is a 12 week (84 Day Challenge)
• This is not a weight loss contest, but a fat loss and lifestyle challenge.  Winners will be chosen based on greatest body fat loss and body composition improvement in 40 days: judged based on body composition numbers (weight, body fat, lean body mass), visual appearance (before and after photographs from 3 angles) and a transformation essay (each component counts for 1/3 of the score. The judges may weight the photos or essays more heavily based on body composition test result congruency).
• Again, this is  not a “weight loss” contest. (The person who loses the most weight could be the winner, but NOT necessarily).
• Although this is a competition with many people vying for the prizes, from a judging point of view, you are competing against yourself: You will be judged on your own personal improvement between your “before” and your “after.”
• Contestants agree to follow the challenge rules and procedures below or posting before photos, taking measurements, after photos and final essay.
• You can start the challenge anytime between January 9, 2012 to Saturday, April 14th, 2012. The last day to enter if you want to complete a full 12-week Transformation is Friday, January 20th, 2012. You can still enter AFTER that date, but you must submit your entry no later than Saturday, April 14th, 2012.
• Pre & Post Photos must be submitted by email to [email protected]. Send front, side and back view photos (3 different photos) wearing a bathing suit or  sports bra or tank/shorts for females and shorts for males. Use judgment on clothing. If clothes are baggy, there will not be a noticeable difference in before and after photos.Pre photos must be sent via email. Hold a newspaper for the front angle view,  so it proves the date of the photo.
• Pre & Post photos must be sent by Saturday, April 14th, 2012. Again, hold a newspaper for the front angle view,  so it proves the date of the photo on or before Saturday, April 14th, 2012
• Weight and body fat will be measured at your boot camp facilities by boot camp instructor starting on January 9th. Please schedule your location, date and time by email @ [email protected]. Your instructor  will send me your results; however, please take note of measurement also,  which will be used in your essays. Please send measurements with photos.
• Weight and body fat can be measured weekly so you can keep track of your results.
• It is recommended for you to take additional measurements to track your progress, especially if you want to reduce body fat.
• Lastly, complete an essay and send to [email protected] by 4/14/12 (no more than one page -double spaced) about what you leaned and achieved  from the 12 week experience, share your obstacles and how you overcame them, how you changed your lifestyle, etc. Be specific with bullet points. It is rec to work on your essay during the 12 week period, so you can easily send it in by 4/14/12.
• You will receive a link to a special facebook page for all contestants, motivational emails with nutrition information and access to me for questions.
• There will also be a party at Brien Shamp’s studio in Belmont on Wednesday 4/25/12 from 630-8:00 pm for all the contestants where we will pick the winners. The grand prize will be $1000.
• Additional prizes will be given so there is not just one winner!
• To enter contest and to be eligible for prizes, you must pay registration fee and be an active member of Burlingame Boot Camp,  Redwood City Boot Camp, South City Boot Camp, Belmont Boot Camp, Shamp’s Mini Camp, TRX Boot Camp,  Menlo Fit or one of Brien Shamp’s Personal Training Clients.
