1st! This should be great, excited to follow along and see some great transformations.

[SquidC]

Another HUGE promotion, cash, product and autographed memorabilia!!! Definitely looking forward to seeing some amazing transformations and having a lot of fun with this!!!

[TPAYNTER]

Just for fun and personal motivation I am considering "competing" along side you all. I will get my before photos up soon. This can help. Serve as an example to what your entry posts should look like. This is going to be embarrassing since I have let myself go a bit over the summer

[brazilianbadboy]

I just might do this. End of October I stop my bulk and start cutting in November. Don't know how good I'll look with just 17 days of cutting but I'm going to see what happens. I need to think about this for 2 days. And I'll come back.

Can the supps be bought anywhere and can it be any Force Factor supp?

All of the supps available on the Force Factor website are available. That includes the new line of products like BRX, Factor 2, etc.

Yeah I was just there looking at all the products, I meant if the supps can be bought on any website.

If you mean for pricing, then the products come directly for force factor so the pricing will go by the retail value on our website.

why 8 instead of 12 weeks? just curious.

No real reason behind it... It's just the time frame we came up with.

[Mexisack]

So this is goal based; if someone is looking to bulk, you'll judge according to that, etc? If so, how will the comparisons be made between somebody trying to bulk and somebody trying to cut? Just asking, cuz more than likely, the person cutting will look in better, "shape" afterward. But obviously if the goal was to gain weight, then some fat gain is unavoidable. So just wanna know what the criteria will be? And is this limited to bodybuilding.com forum?

10-4, thanks

[xxsupergman25xx]

[rebelprettyboy]

Sick promo. Wish I wasn't in bulk mode would def get in on this. Looking forward to seeing some good transformations though.

[sdowhey2012]

Can we hold a sign that shows the day? Like if I write it down on a piece of paper? Or does it have to be a newspaper? I just don't think I'll be able to get the coordination of the news paper close enough with my whole body. Haha.

And we didn't think anyone would want to be dieting through Thanksgiving and into early December (holiday season).

It's not so much about being in better "shape" afterwards, as it is successfully completing a your fitness goal and making a positive change. I know that some fat gain come with bulking, so don't worry about that. If a bulk is done right and the clean way you will put on a little fat. Dirty bulking will add on quite a bit of fat. A possible winner would be someone who completes a successful clean bulk (i.e. minimal fat gain and lots of muscle gain)

I will be posting my photo's momentarily, i just help the paper at my side etc. then took a close up shot of the newspaper so that you were able to tell that the newspaper I was holding was the same one in my before photos.

What he said ^^^

[MMA Mckyle]

I won't be posting my before and after pics in this thread but I'm doing a transformation in another thread: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=147573173 I'm doing a fun challenge to see how lean I can get eating at Subway as my main source of calories. Follow along if you're interested... shameless plug, I know.

[Mexisack]

Awesome! I may be in on this then! We'll see what I can do.

[TPAYNTER]

Front Relaxed

Side Relaxed

Back Relaxed

My goal for this transformation is to use Force Factor products to aid me in losing body fat and becoming more "fit". I currently weight around 205 lbs. I would love to be down around 190 by the end of the eight weeks. I would also like to maintain as much muscle mass as possible even if it means not losing the body fat as quickly.

EDIT: I am having trouble getting my photos to show up, but I am working on it.

[xStriker7]

Cash money and free supplements, what more motivation do you need?


Good luck to all contestants.

[AmberNicoleH]

My goal during this transformation is to lose the extra body fat I am carrying around. I would also like to tighten up my body and become fit again. I have been there before and want to be back there again. I look forward to competing with you all and see how well everyone does. The money and products are a BIG motivator. Thanks Force Factor for this opportunity.

This sounds pretty tempting, I do need something to pick me up from not being able to play football this year and this might be good motivation for that
