I will be holding a contest for my current, new, and returning female clients.
Whoever can Squat the most, complete the most pull-ups, and Bench Press (flat bench) by April 31st, 2009 will win $200. Criteria are stated below:
1) Squat: Defined as successfully descending to a parallel position with the floor (minimum), pausing one second, then returning (pushing) to the starting position without help.
2) Pull-ups: Defined as gripping the bar with hands facing away from you. Keeping your torso straight and gently pulling yourself upwards, chin clearing the bar.
3) Bench Press: Defined as being able to lower the weight within 5.5" parallel to mid-line of the chest. Then returning (pushing) the bar back to starting position / rest.
Awarding is absolute, or by category. Squats and pull-ups are more fiscally rewarding - because they are more challenging (plus they are better for you) than the bench.
The prize breakdown:
Squat: $95
Pull-up: $65
Bench: $40
This means- you can take it all, or be the best at a certain movement and win the money for that category.
For instance: If you're a good squatter,ho-hum bench presser, and mediocre pull-upper, you can possibly win the squat portion.
However, if somebody comes along - out squats, pulls, and presses you (and everyone else) they win the entire amount.
It pays to be well rounded. Are you up for it? Whoever can Squat the most, complete the most pull-ups, and Bench Press (flat bench) by April 31st, 2009 will win $200. Criteria are stated below:
