Surely not everything needs to be sorted before this starts? Just before it finishes? As people are doing this for themselves anyway, so things like prizes etc. don't necessarily need to be confirmed before people start? Just seems to make sense to start on the 1st, what with it being 'new year, new you' time maybe have a 1 week entry period in the 1st week of Jan or something? But anyway, if the start date's after the 5th, can I apply for special dispensation to post my start pics before I go away so I don't forget and miss the entry dates? (Going on holiday with no internet access until the 11th, then going straight to uni, so going to be stressful few days!)
Whens the window for the 'before'pic? I want to take it soon as I will be hitting the gym hard again as of tomorrow and don't want all dem muscle memory gainz in before pic.
The trouble is with starting the 1st is a lot of people won't be ready - people tend to get up to all sorts of things on new years weekend so it makes sense to do it a week or so after.
What we could do is - have a week window from say the 2nd till the 8th to post up pictures, then a week window to post finishing pictures at the end too?
I'm in. Would I be allowed to take my before pic tomorrow or Thursday? Hoping to loose weight and also going to start doing some weights when the new gym round here opens in the 5th.
It'll be a bit too soon tomorrow or thursday, and if you were allowed to do that - 'technically' you would have a weeks advantage on everyone else.
If your new gym opens on the 5th, couldn;t you post around then?
What do you guys think is best - Male / Female categories or Fat loss / muscle gain ?
I personally just vote male/female, because a transformation is a transformation, regardless of the type, and also because they can be pretty inter-related - at what do you say 'this is a fat loss transformation' or 'this is a muscle gain transformation'? Surely it's just easier to judge on who has transformed the most from their starting point, without imposing extra criteria?
Since there is no prize...(there is no prize right? ^^) I think it should just be male / female catagory, then when the comp ends those who are still taking part upload the after pics, and all the other users vote on who has "transformed" the most. Just who looks the most different. Bigger, smaller, more shredded etc.
