4TH PLACE
There was a tie of three people all in 4th place; Nolene, Bernadette and Kelly. They all dropped a total of 49% body fat.

Nolene  Ashfield:  Sne of Joanne’s clients. She started at 38% body fat and dropped a total of 15% fat. Joanne says, if it was not for her having to go in for an operation one month into the challenge, she is confident that she would have lost a lot more, she had the focus and discipline to do it.

Walter Scholz: Started with 15% body fat and came down to 9%, his main aim was to change that photo on the website.. and I think from that perspective, he definitely won.

Leechen Engelbrecht:  Started at 26.5% body fat and is now down to, 18%, a total of 6kg loss. She had to do it all on her own as she is from Johies

Kelly White: she started at 32% body fat and came all the way down to 18%, total of 8cm lost just around her hips and 10cm around her waist, she now has her goal set for her wedding and then next year Ms Bikini

Charmaine Claassen:  One of last years contestants, she needed to go the next step, started at 20%, and dropped down now to 16%, for a women to go down below 20% is really hard work, but with enough determination and will power, anyone can do it

Madelein Meyer: Started at 30% and managed to get down to 23%, so a total of 8% lost . She is ready to do the next challenge and will not give up trying till she is where she wants to be

Dylan Pietersen:  One of our contestants last year. At one point work and home just got to much, he wanted to pull out, but he stuck it through and did far better than last year, total of 8kg of fat was lost, 15cm on his waist over the 6 month period

Bernie Allen: One of Mariska’s clients, she started at 33% and came down now to  20%, lost a total of 20 pounds of body fat

Kim Banwell:  She worked really hard, started at 35% body fat and with the help of Mariska came all the way down to 24%, in weight she lost a total of 24kg of body fat

Bernie Manzoni: Even though he did not have much to loose, the percentage of fat he lost was still almost 40% because it works on the total fat you start with and % of that you manage to loose

Karen van der Merwe: Started at 30% body fat and dropped a total of  10kg and all the way down to 24% . She also has set her mid on doing the 35+ next year, so won’t be giving up after this

Mariana Myburgh:  She did it on her own in George very quietly. Started at 76.4kg and ended on 63.6, so lost a total of 13kg of body fat.

THE CHALLENGE IS BACK!

Yes, the Fitness challenge is!

Again we are looking for the person that is up for the 6 month challenge, starting now the middle for February and the Grand Finale / Prize giving will be on the night of the Fitness Pageant, the 15th of August, at the Grand Arena, Grand West. We will be doing the Challenge, prize giving from 6pm till 7pm so that the Pageant itself does not get too long. 

R10 000 cash up for grabs to the person that can lose the biggest percentage body fat, so any person has a chance because it is not about percentage body fat you start with, but the total amount that you manage to lose by then. We are also looking for the Biggest Transformer, the person that can add the biggest percentage muscle gained in that period.
 
If any of you want to do the challenge and need to do it via correspondence, the entry fees is R1000 once off. If you are in Cape Town you can come to our offices here in Durbanvllle, send us an e-mail to set up the appointment.

For the first timers, the price is R350 and R150 for all follow-ups thereafter.  We also need all starting photos in by the middle of the month. Ladies, please take photographs wearing your bikinis, it just makes such a huge difference as to how you see yourself, if not in bikini, then at least in a crop-top and tights. Guys, we need you in shorts and no top.
