Washington DC|Slippery Business at the Naval Academy

Plebes (freshman) from class of 2015, scale the Herndon Monument, a 21 foot high grease covered obelisk, to swap a plebe cap for one of a midshipman, at the US Naval Academy, in Annapolis, Md, Tuesday, May 21, 2012. The obelisk is covered with more than 200 pounds of lard, making it difficult to climb. This tradition is designed to illustrate the merits of teamwork. It took roughly 2 hours and 10 minutes for the rising sophomores to complete the challenge, creating a human pyramid that enabled them to replace the plebe Dixie cup head cover which had been taped securely to the obelisk by thoughtful upperclassmen.

Fitness Consulting Group Announces Winner of National Transformation Contest

Fitness Consulting Group Announces Winner of National Transformation Contest

Seattle, WA Premier|Fitness Consulting Group Announces Winner of National Transformation Contest

Elizabethtown, KY (PRWEB) June 04, 2012

Earlier this year, Fitness Consulting Group customers and Fitness Revolution franchisees, ran their first ever National Transformation Contest. Hundreds of fitness professionals were given the opportunity to participate in the contest.

This not only led to a lot of leaner, healthier bodies throughout the country, but also gave fitness business owners the chance to generate new business, increase membership sales, build relationships and good will in their communities, and reinforce a results-driven culture within their facilities.

Fitness professionals teamed up with Personal Trainer Food, a business that delivers 28 days of pre-cooked, healthy, and preservative-free meals of protein and produce to homes throughout the United States.

Participating fitness professionals received a 30 day marketing plan to promote the national transformation contest. Included in the plan were email sequences, joint venture strategies, and press releases, among several other marketing materials.

In addition to cash rewards and other prizes individual fit pros made available to winning contestants, the winner at each location was entered into consideration for a national grand prize, the opportunity to be in a commercial for Personal Trainer Food.

The contest officially ended April 1st, and finally, with all the data collected and analyzed, Fitness Consulting Group is ready to announce the 2012 National Transformation Contest Winner: Jodi Trippany of Bloomington, Indiana! Jodi trains at Force Fitness and Performance (member of the Fitness Revolution Nation), owned and operated by Ryan Ketchum and Wil Fleming.

The three other finalists in the contest included Scott Prouty, who trains with Trevor Wittwer at Functional Fitness (also a member of the FR Nation) in Redwood Falls, MN, Marlin Diekfuss, who trains with Mark Lopez at Fitness Revolution New Tampa in Florida, and Joe Mangan, who trains with Ryan Riley at Riley Athletics (FR Nation) in Seattle.

Throughout the 8 weeks, Jodi added extra days to her training program, began training for the Tough Mudder, and added Personal Trainer Food to her nutrition program.

According to Ketchum, Jodi is 100% dedicated to reaching her goals. Her husband, George, is a huge factor in her success as well and has personally lost 80lbs in his time at Force. These two are our Power Couple. Over 130lbs were lost between the two of them, and they made incredible changes.

The energy and enthusiasm that Jodi has for training are unmatched. Jodi completes our boot camp workouts with a weight vest on to ensure she is getting the most out of the workout, and she never misses a day. She and George are a motivating force in our boot camp program and push the entire group to an entirely new level.

Before starting her transformation, Jodi weighed in at 178.8 pounds and measured at 36.5 inches around her belly. By the end of the contest, she finished at 146.4 pounds and 29.25 inches for a grand total of 32.4 pounds and 7.25 inches lost!

When Jodi was asked the difference between this contest and other programs she had participated in, she replied, Personal Trainer Food! Using Personal Trainer Foods gave the contest a new spin to my approach. It made the process easy by not having to think about my meals. The food was always ready, making it simple. There was no guess work involved.

I don’t think it would have been possible to achieve the results without Personal Trainer Food, the Force Fitness team of coaches and administrative staff, my fellow boot campers, and my husband and committed boot camp comrade George.

Congratulations, Jodi Trippany!
