Commencing on Monday, October 2nd, and spanning over 6 weeks, the challenge centred on fat loss, with participants' body fat changes tracked through TANITA's professional body composition analyzers.
This initiative has been strategically developed to promote active participation in the broader Independent Gyms community, showing the transformation impact of the challenges that promote the accountability of gym members.
11 gyms joined the challenge, along with 50 participants. The victorious gym won a one-year complimentary membership to the Independent Gyms Network, while the participant exhibiting the most remarkable reduction in body fat received a cutting-edge TANITA RD-953 body composition scale.
Winning Gym: Elements Health & Wellbeing, Stafford
Elements Health & Wellbeing, based in Stafford, emerged triumphant as the First Body Transformation Challenge winners. Their dedicated members collectively shed an impressive 20.3 kilograms of body fat during the challenge period. Led by Carl Davies, this facility is renowned for its holistic training approach, diverse equipment offerings, and comprehensive services, making it a must-visit destination for health & fitness enthusiasts in the Staffordshire region. Expressing his enthusiasm for the TANITA x Independent Gyms Network challenge, Carl Davies emphasised effectiveness in promoting member accountability. The clear goal set within a limited timeframe motivated participants, resulting in remarkable transformations and elevated member satisfaction.
Individual Winner: Amy Hall, NG2 Fitness
Amy Hall, from NG2 Fitness in Stoke on Trent, emerged as the individual victor, shedding an impressive 5.4 kilograms of body fat throughout the transformation challenge. For Amy, the challenge catalysed the implementation of substantial lifestyle changes, exercising with consistency and intensity than ever before and controlling her nutrition to be able to sustain this. Despite maintaining an active lifestyle, Amy grappled with weight issues post-lockdown and experimented with various short-term solutions. Working closely with Nick, the owner of NG2 Fitness, reignited her determination to pursue a sustained path toward improved health.
Regular progress checks with Nick using the TANITA MC-580 highlighted the results of Amy's consistent efforts, offering the motivation needed to stay committed to her transformation journey. Amy's progress is a clear demonstration of dedication and determination, earning recognition from both Nick and the TANITA team.
TANITA would like to thank all the gyms that took part and congratulate all members who took on the challenge. Building upon the success of this transformative challenge, TANITA and the Independent Gyms Network are excited to announce their collaboration for a Summer Body Transformation event next year.
