Yeah, It's a Gimmick, But...

When it comes to getting in the best shape of your life, sometimes all it takes is a big juicy "carrot" (a giant reward) to really get your motivational juices flowing again.

Here's a perfect example...

Tom Venuto and the guys over at the "Burn The Fat" websites have launched what they are calling "the world's first body composition transformation contest."

They're giving away a CRAZY reward to the winners...

They're sending the winners to one of the world's most luxurious resorts in Maui - The 5-Star Four Seasons on Wailea beach.

I saw the photos of this place, and I have to admit, even I am tempted to enter this contest!

I mean c'mon...who doesn't wanna go to Hawaii?

Really. Get in shape. Go to maui.

Of course, there may be a few thousand other people who want that vacation too, but that's the fun of it - this is a body transformation competition.

This one is very different from most fitness contests these days. It's definitely NOT like the "biggest loser" because it's NOT a wt. loss contest.

In "wt loss" contests, people are rewarded even if they avoid weight training, lose muscle, drop buckets of water weight or even cheat by taking laxatives or diuretics... It's all about the almighty scale.

As tom wrote on one of his recent blog posts, "Hmpf! Big deal! I know wrestlers who can sweat out 20 pounds overnight!"

When you accept this challenge and enter the Burn the Fat contest, you will not only take before and after pictures, you will also measure your body fat percentage so you can be judged visually and numerically on your improvement in body composition.

Great idea!

You can see more about the contest judging criteria and rules here:

But in a nutshell, here's how it works:

When you purchase the Burn the Fat, feed the Muscle ebook, known by many as "the fat loss bible" - you get automatic entry in the contest. not just this contest, but every burn the fat challenge in the future... forever.

You can also get entered in the contest by getting a membership to the Burn the Fat Inner Circle - the private members-only motivation and support community where the contest is being held.

That's good for people who want extra support and accountability.

This contest is held only twice a year and the current Burn the Fat challenge - the summer "BIG BURN" challenge as they're calling it, is open for registration until Sunday, May 30th.

After that, the gates close until the next summer contest a year from now.

All of the contest details, including information about the grand prize trip for two to Maui (you gotta see this place), have been posted here:

Now is a trip like this a gimmick to sell stuff? Well...uhhh...yeah. Duh.

But look at it this way - you enter the contest, and have a chance at winning a badass trip. (And who couldn't use a free vacation...esp a badass one like this?)

Even if you don't win...well...you're still in the best shape you've likely been in, in...well...who knows how long.

Sounds win-win to me.
