Choose Male $10K Winner

How To Vote

When casting your vote, it's important to remember that we're not rewarding the best bodies per se. We're rewarding the best transformations. Indeed, in the Lean Eating program we don't expect folks to start off looking like fitness models. Heck, we don't even expect folks to end up looking like fitness models.

Rather, we're simply looking for winners who've made the most dramatic changes in their own bodies, starting wherever they were at the beginning of the program. (And, as you'll see, folks started all over the place.) Truly, the Lean Eating Coaching Program is for men and women of all shapes and sizes. And your vote should reflect who you think created the most dramatic changes over the course of the last 6 months.

One More Note:

It was VERY DIFFICULT narrowing down this list of finalists. We originally wanted to post only 5 finalists. That was impossible. So we stretched it to 8-10.

Either way, there were at least a 2 dozen other men and women who also had amazing, jaw-dropping transformations. And, truly, every single one of them is a winner.

The all have new bodies, and a new outlook on exercise and nutrition. Something we're very proud to have helped with.

Tough choices indeed. I am really impressed with the transformations here, and from others in my group. Especially following some of them trough 6 months, it makes me happy to see all the great results!

Truly amazing

Participating in this program has truly changed the course of my life and now that this awesome journey has led me to the final I just couldn't be happier.

No matter what the result of the voting will be I've already won myself, got my health back and made some great new friends who actually invited me to San Diego.. Offer I can't refuse. So how about some group training when I come there?

Good luck to all of you! Hope to see you all in the alumni program!

We lost over 300 lbs in 6 months between us! I'm sure thousands more were lost between our LEP brothers, whose support was key to completing the program. Thank you to my coaching group for the daily support that kept me on track. Looking at these photos, there can be no doubt the program works. LEP guarantees results when you follow the program, and I can see why! Congratulations to all who finished the program, and congratulations to everyone who has made the decision to change their lives in the upcoming 2010 LEP program

One of the most common questions we get from Precision Nutrition readers is whether we can help them personally. The answer is usually no, and has been for some time. And the reason is simply that there are more people that need help than there are qualified coaches to help them.

But every now and again, we open up a few spots in our coaching programs, and we're now accepting people on the waiting list for our group coaching programs: Lean Eating for Men, and Lean Eating for Women.
