July 1st to October 1st - Body Transformation Outline

This challenge was originally created for 10th Planet Austin members, but after hearing from people throughout the Austin martial arts community, we decided to open it up to everyone.


Our goal isn't simply to see who can lose the most weight. It's to create better habits and build a healthier community.


To help with that, we'll be creating an accountability group through email to start, with the possibility of moving to another platform as the challenge grows. Throughout the 90 days, we'll share ideas, discuss habits we're working on, encourage one another, and celebrate progress along the way.

Please send an email to zack@10patx.com if you’d like to be involved.


We will be creating an accountability group on the platform where the most people are engaged, likely Instagram.


If doing this at home, all you need to do is take a before picture for yourself (front, side, and back if you can) and get your starting weight.


The challenge began July 1st! But we will be taking entries through Sunday, July 5th.


Frankly, it’s up to you. We just want you involved if you’re motivated to make a change.


Martial arts training will be the foundation of the challenge, but transformation doesn't happen on the mats alone. We'll also be focusing on habits such as increasing daily steps, improving nutrition, prioritizing sleep, and adding strength and conditioning where appropriate.


The challenge is proudly sponsored by Orange Standard and Guerrilla Grocers, whose support allows us to reward consistency throughout the challenge.

At the end of the challenge, our management team will review each participant's overall transformation—not just physical results, but consistency, effort, and commitment. We'll also invite the @10PATX community to help celebrate the finalists as we determine the recipient of the grand cash prize.


More than anything, we hope this challenge helps people become healthier, more disciplined, and more connected to the community around them.


The finish line is October 1. Let's see what's possible in 90 days.
