I AM NOOB! Er...I Mean...JUGGERNAUT!!!

December 4th, 2011 - The Final Day

The day’s finally here. The last day of the I Am Juggernaut contest. I really did walk into this thing thinking there was no way I’d have a shot at this, but what the heck, it’d be an experience. Little did I know how great of an experience it’d be. This log evolved much like I have these past 16 weeks. You could see at the start how it kinda fumbled around and didn’t have much of an identity. But as the days progressed it started to shape up. Things started to fall into place and look good. And that’s all been a product of hardwork and opportunity.

The opportunity was given to us by Infinite Labs. To which I would like to say thank you. Very rarely is there a contest like this open to Canadians. They not only opened it up to us, but when things started to fall apart with shipping from bb.com, they ensured we’d be able to continue. So again, thank you.

Hardwork came from everyone. And it was that hardwork from other’s that pushed me to work just as hard if not harder. On August 16th I wrote a message in my log to my fellow competitors. The message read “A thank-you goes out to all my fellow competitors. Thank-you for being so much bigger, stronger, and knowledgeable then me. I will be better for it.” And I truly am.

I never anticipated my log would reach do this well. I wanted to make it easier to navigate through for anyone who stumbles across it in the future. So I went ahead and made an index of highlights of my 12 week journey in this contest. A journey that won’t ever be forgotten.

Best of luck to each and every Juggernaut.

Sincerely, The Noob

Realizing I was limited in the advice I could offer to people, I wanted to come up with a way to pay people back for the all the help they were giving me. I created the Juggernaut Spotlight to do just that. This gave me the opportunity to shine a spotlight on many great competitors in this contest who had already accomplished so much prior to the contest, or were well on their way to doing so. Although there’d be times I’d get frustrated staying up late at night trying to find someone to spotlight, it was all well worth it and I’m glad I stuck with this feature until the end.

For those Juggernauts I never got around to spotlighting, I apologize. There just simply wasn’t enough time to do so. When you finish up your journey, you’ll get your recognition as a Finisher.

There are lots of things to like about training at home. There is however a bit of a disadvantage to not having a gym full of people that someone can turn to, to get advice on proper form for certain exercises. This was the reason for creating this feature in my log. I would record any exercises I’d want my fellow Juggernauts to critique in order to help me improve. This proved to be a very positive thing for me as it helped me correct my form on several exercises. It also opened up conversation for other Juggernauts to discuss these exercises among themselves.


Squats, Squats and Deadlifts/Shrugs,


Squats and Flat Bench BB Press, Incline DB Press and Bent Over BB Rows


Flat Bench BB Press and V-Bar Pull Downs, Seated BB Overhead Press and Zottman Curls


Side Lateral Raises and BB Curls, Squats, Seated BB Overhead Press, and DB Tricep Extensions


Reverse Grip Cable Tricep Extensions, Side Lateral Raises, BB Curls





--------------------------------------------------------------

This was a feature that I added to my log to pay tribute to those who entered the contest, and seen it through until the end. It was updated periodically as more competitors finished.

The One More Rep feature was created in an attempt to help get people back to their logs and finish what they started. I focused on those who were active in their log up to the last week and for whatever reason, wasn’t finishing things off. I hyperlinked all of their avatars directly to their logs so that everyone could drop by those logs and try to encourage these people to finish up. We did manage to get a few more people across the line so this was a pretty successful endeavor.
