Guidelines: “Sexy For Summer" 27 Day Body Transformation Challenge: Challenge starts Monday, June 4th and ends at the end of the day Saturday, June 30th, 2012.

A nutrition seminar and weigh-ins will be held Sunday, June 30th at 9:00 am at the gym. You need to be weighed and measured even if you participated in the last Challenge. The final weigh-ins will be held Sunday, July 1st.  You will turn in your journals for the previous week at that time.
Winners will be announced on Tuesday, July 3rd. You can choose between using The Zone nutrition plan or the Paleo nutrition plan ONLY.

A small portion of the kitty will be reserved for administrative and printing fees. First Place then receives 70% of the amount in the remainder of the kitty plus 50% off their next month's investment.Second place will receive 30% of the amount in the kitty and 20% off their next month's investment.


Food Journals will be provided for you. You must log everything that you eat and drink each day in that food journal in order to get a point for that day. You must turn in your journals in to me on the dates indicated below. NOTE: you only get a point for that day’s journal if it is thoroughly completed for all meals and snacks. It is to your benefit if you log exactly what you eat. The women who saw the most results from the last challenge were those who mindfully tracked exactly what they ate, which means: do not write down “carrots” for a snack.

Journals due: Monday, June 11th, 18th, 25th, and Sunday, July 1st. You can make a copy and drop it off at the gym or scan it and email it to me. No exceptions.

Support Partner: You will be partnered with another challenge participant so that you can support, encourage and hold each other accountable.


Points will be awarded as follows:
Percentage of weight loss:
7 for 1st, 3 for 2nd.
Percentage of body fat loss: 7 for 1st, 3 for 2nd.

Exercise: 6 possible points ea. week for total possible points: 24 (Allowing for 6 rest days).
Points are awarded for boot camp workouts as well as exercising outside of your boot camp workouts. Biking, hiking, swimming, running, etc. Going for a walk or moving your body in a way you normally do during your day is not considered exercise in this Challenge. It is the intensity of the exercise that matters, not the duration. We are going off the honor system here. Doing 100 burpees takes far less time than running 5 miles but both are great workouts.

Improved Performance Points: Most increased mile run time. 7 for 1st, 3 for 2nd. Initial times will be taken the week of June 4th during class. Final numbers will be taken the week of June 25th. Your time for the first time you run your mile will be used for the challenge.
