Thank you everyone who participated in the 2015 Body Transformation Challenge! This is our favorite part of the challenge — kind of like Christmas for us. When we receive participants before & after submittals we never know what we are going to get until we open the email and view the before and after photos, and best of all…read about their journey.
This year there were several great transformations, but after careful review we have made following selections.
Overall Women’s Transformation Winner & Best Abs – Carisa A, Snohomish, WA
I’ve never met Carissa before, which made her impressive transformation all the more fun for us! A first time competitor, and mother of 2, she had one of the most impressive 90 transformations that I have ever scene! Carissa lost over 10 pounds, lost 3.5″ from her waist, and was able to build some amazing abs!
Her story…
In these past 90 days, looking at my photo comparisons, I’m just in shock. I think that I was doubtful, and never thought I’d really have this kind of transformation! It has always seemed near impossible for me to gain any significant muscle. I realized during this that the only thing that was preventing it was me!…I would just give up too soon. The challenge really helped me stay committed to a solid number of days. I formed new great habits that I plan to carry on with me because of this challenge. I’m just amazed, because I’ve always been called a “thin” girl…but I’ve never felt strong. And now here, at 30 years old and post 2 kids, I can honestly say that THIS right now is by far the strongest, healthiest and most fit I have EVER been. I feel so much more balance, truly great inside and out.
Thank you so much for the extra push this gave me to see that I am able…that this was possible 🙂

Mens Overall Transformation Winner – Mike R., Los Angeles, CA
We’ve known Mike for many years and were proud to see him really take this transformation challenge to the next level this year. He lost over 19 pounds and nearly 6 inches from his waist!
His story…
This year before and after. This year I started completely out of shape and thanks to the fitness challenge I’ve seen some major changes! My biggest accomplishments were losing 19 pounds, gaining 1 inch on bicep, losing 5.5 inches on my waist, 3 inches on my butt, and I’m sure I’ve lost a ton of body fat which I’ll measure in the near future.

Mens Masters Winnner – Chad B., Nashville, TN
Just like Mike, we’ve known Chad for many moons and were pumped to see him take these past 3 months seriously and really make impressive gains. He lost 16 pounds and lost over 3 inches from his waist while putting on a great deal of muscle!
His story…
I made great strides in the challenge this year. I was at my heaviest this year and the challenge gave me the push to start getting back in shape and I plan on continuing getting in shape and the challenge has given me the right push. I stayed motivated over the 3 months by looking at photos of me in the past and realizing that staying in a good routine was the way to overcome the weight I had put on.

Again, great job to all of our participants this year and I look forward to seeing your results next year!
To your health,
Kurt & Randy
