There is a $99usd entry fee for this contest, paid to Elite Fitness. We ask for an entry fee to make sure people are serious and see this as a meaningful and important event. We are trying to avoid competitors dropping out of the contest mid way since it will ruin the contest.
-Face pictures are REQUIRED. We will not take entries of folks who refuse to show their face. You have to submit progress pictures every 15 days, with the required verification items in the picture. Contestants will be asked to place certain common items in the image at the time the contest pictures are taken, this is to make sure images are legitimate and current... The FIRST entry pictures require that the contestant hold kitchen knife and fork in their hands (in all poses) as the stills are taken, to serve as proof that this is a current picture. Every two weeks, the household items that contestants must pose with in pictures, will change and will be announced with plenty of time. Required poses are: Most muscular, side bicep, lat spread, double biceps (front and back), flexed quads and flexed calf.
-The contest begins Jan 15th and will run through April 15th. Entry pictures are required on or before Jan 15th and will be required every 15 days. Entry must be paid to Elite Fitness via Credit Cards or Check by January 15th if contestants are to qualify.
-The contests will play out on the forums and on EF's article section, where there will be a permanent page with all of the contestant's info and progress pictures.
-SPONSORS, will be allowed to sponsor contestants and enter them in the contests as sponsored athletes.
HOW TO GET STARTED?
-In less than 24hrs the contest will open for subscriptions and a link will be posted here so that you can follow the link and enter the contest. The link will allow you to pay the $99 entry fee using your Credit Card. Once you have paid the subscription fee, you may submit your entry pictures by posting them on your gallery and sending the link to me, or by e-mailing the images [email protected]... You will be required to submit progress pictures every 15 days and maintain a training log to stay in the contest.
Voting for the winners will be done after April 15th when the last set of pictures is due. NOTE: The first and last pictures are the most important, so we advice you run a short "contest-prep" regimen for your final photos.
