Could someone please define the rules here. I'm confused and I don't know when or if this has started. How long does it go? Yes, I read the intro but there seems to be no organization. I'd be interested in starting. Has it started yet?

No one seems to know what the Hell is going on, so I will reiterate the rules here:
  • You can start whenever you would like. The duration of the contest is 10 weeks from your start date. The only stipulation is that you must be finished by the official end date, which I am setting at April 1st. Starting by January 21st will yield exactly 10 weeks of time to compete, so try to get your pics and measurements up by then.
  • If you start too late to finish a full 10 weeks by April 1st, then you can still enter. However, your end date is April 1st regardless. Basically, you will have less time to alter your physique if you start late.
  • There are 2 categories: lean mass gain and fat loss. Both will be judged based on objective (Body fat readings, measurements, etc.) and subjective measures (Pictures). Males and females will be judged separately.

Any other questions?

Do you like drama? Comedy? Non-stop action? Then look no further than a Life of a Father, Husband, Soldier, and Gym Rat

Or maybe you'd like to venture into Myspace?

Rocco, prostitute isn't slang for sheep anywhere outside of VA.

O.K., I"m in. I'll send pics to CP. What's the rules on measurements? Done by a gym, scouts honer? How about some guidelines. I don't know exactly how to provide this info. Flexed? Unflexed? Define waist, define thigh. Where and how to take it. BF at a gym? I'm on the road for two days. CP, direction please.

Just be honest; I don't think anyone in this contest is immature enough to cheat in a friendly contest. If you are, then I will hunt you down, take off your clothes, tie your hands and feet together, and put you in a room with topolo for 72 hours straight.

The measurements can vary, not everyone is going to have the same set of measurements. Just indicate all these things you are saying. Like make a note if the measurements are flexed or unflexed, or include both. Make a note whether your waist measurement is at the hips or the navel. Make a note where on the thigh you are measuring. That cool?

Here is what I do

Shoulders-Widest
Chest-At nipple
Biceps-largest point, unflexed
forearms-at the widest point, unflexed
Abdomen-At belly button
Waist-Where you wear your pants
Thigh-2/3 of the way up the thigh, unflexed
Calf-Largest circumference, unflexed

Skinfolds-
Chest
Abdomen
Thigh

I think that covers anything that will be considered for the contest.

10 weeks from your start date. The contest ends April 1st I believe. Me and Dale set forth some rules within the last couple of posts, scroll back and look it up to confirm.
