Fat Loss Competition 11/08/08

[gia]

) the contest will run for 8 weeks until 6th October 2008.

2) One mandatory pose, (these would also be mandatory for the end pics so direct comparisons could be made) then participants could post as many supplementarty photos as they wanted. This would accomadate the fact that everyone will have different ideas as to how to best show off their strengths. As long as they were all taken on the finishing weekend......

As this is for fat loss, there should be three mandatory poses consisting of front relaxed, side relaxed, and back relaxed poses, you may include more pictures if you wish. The three mandatory poses including any additional should be the same ones posted at the end of the competition for comparison.

Photos should be done in same position indoors under the same lighting conditions which should be as uniform as possible (i.e standing 10ft from camera with 'average' house lighting).

- Only "non-assisted" participants would be included in the end pole...but anyone could participate. I reckon people would be honest and up front about their status.

-a sub-forum in the members pictures section . That way a sticky could be created with the rules listed clearly, and dates of the next comp put up for all to see. Then on the weekend of the start date, you'd have a load of threads started....one for each participant...which would act in the same way as the training logs. People could make posts, and thread starters/competitors could post progress shots or supplement protocols or training etc if they wanted to...or not.

3) Stats to be included for comparison being weight, and bf%. You may also include other measurements such as waist measurement, etc.

To enter post a topic in here using the same naming convention as below:

"Entry: (membername)" (i.e. "Entry: myprotein.co.uk")

othing other than the pics/stats should be put in these threads, all talk is kept in the discussion thread for the competition. For all discussion please discuss here.

So all the pics have to be posted by the end of the day today?

i'll allow a few days if people aren't on today or don't have time

Would take part, apart from the fact that in the next 3 weeks my cut ends and I go off to India and Singapore, then to Ibiza, then to Uni, so my pic in Oct will probably look a little off the mark!
