Thank you everyone for making it out to the Primal Challenge Finale on Saturday.  It was great getting the chance to talk to all of you outside of our regular class times.  Thank you for bringing your family and friends along to share in the excitement and see what G7 is all about.

At the finale party, we premiered our new transforMISSION video and announced the winners of the challenge as well as some new programs that we will be starting in March.  In the coming days, we’ll be posting some before and after photos and announcing our new programs here on the site. 

Our new ”transforMISSION” video

After some tough decision making, we were finally able to choose a winner.  The G7 Athletics Primal Challenge winner is Connie Saenz, G7 Athletics member since July 2009.  Connie worked hard for 7 weeks to improve her nutrition and saw amazing results in the process.  In addition to improving her nutrition and jumpstarting a healthier lifestyle, she even shed some inches.  Connie lost 3 inches around her abdomen alone and dropped from a size 4 to a size 0!  Congratulations, Connie!

Three honorable mentions have also been awarded to G7 Athletes, Maricela Quintanilla, Selina Sanchez, and Chavi Maxwell.  These 3 individuals put tremendous effort into improving their nutrition and saw significant results as well.  All of your efforts have inspired everyone at G7 to continue to work towards living a healthier lifestyle.  Congratulations!

Special thanks to Natural Health and Sports Massage of  Laredo for donating a sports massage to the grand prize winner.  Thank you again to everyone who participated in the challenge, attended the party, brought food, or simply showed moral support to our participants throughout the 7 weeks.  Let’s keep working together towards becoming healthier and more fit!  See you at G7!
