There is no pattern, theme, flow from one to the next, or significance to the order. The only common thing is that they will make you think about health in a new light.

CHALLENGE RECAP
I used to be against transformation challenges because you don't "win" getting in shape. The point is to stay in shape for the rest of your life.
I then realized that the extra push, accountability, and incentive from a challenge can be the thing that changes somebody's life for the better forever. I love running these challenges to help people on their fitness journeys. It's incredibly rewarding to witness the positive changes everyone makes by the end of the 8 weeks. Seeing participants achieve their goals, build confidence, and adopt healthier lifestyles is both inspiring and fulfilling. These transformations are not just physical but also mental, highlighting the profound impact of dedication and perseverance
It's a huge responsibility programming workouts. Your performance and your body are a reflection of my work. I put everything into each week of programming to make sure it is undeniably great, and I take your success personally.
If you’re thinking about joining the next one, just know that lasting change takes time, but an 8-week sprint with a cash prize can be the start of it.
