Saturday March 12th – Loudoun – From 5-7PM – $50/Cash At The Door

We have 1 overall winner from Loudoun and one from OT. They are the ones whom had the highest % improvement from their initial starting point.

In case you each want to calculate your % improvement, it’s easy. Just subtract your ending bodyfat from your starting bodyfat %. Then divide that number by your starting bodyfat %. So if you started at 20% and ended at 15%, the calculation is:
(20-15) / 20 = 25% improvement

The Loudoun winner is Nate Gonzales. Nate had a 37.9% improvement from his starting point.
The OT winner is Praveen Ramlingam. Praveen had a 39.7% improvement from start.
Congrats to both of you! You each win 1 month free membership at Capital MMA & Elite Fitness!
