Winner evaluation and gratification information

Transformation Challenge not only aims to encourage people to push boundaries and begin their fitness journeys but also intends to inculcate the fact that fitness is a journey in which one competes with his own self and not anyone else. It also stresses on building a sense of discipline, consistency, and diligence in them to achieve their fitness goals. The challenge requires contestants to share a video every week in the specified format to showcase their week-on-week progress for 12 weeks.

The participants are evaluated on multiple factors such as muscle gain, fat loss, and consistency from the past transformation challenges. A panel of judges who are experts in the domain of Fitness & Nutrition, understand the journey and have been INFS (Institute of Nutrition and Fitness Sciences) scholars themselves declared the winners for TC 15.
