Community-driven online health and fitness start-up Fittr has announced a bigger and better version of its Transformation Challenge (TC) in 2021 with TC 12. The grand prize winner of the overall TC series in 2021 will take home a cash reward of Rs 1 crore. The individual winner of TC 12 and other editions of the TCs through the year stand to win cash rewards of Rs 5 lakh each. In addition to this, the first runner-up and the second runner-up will win Rs 2 lakh and Rs 1 lakh respectively. With these fitness challenges, Fittr aims to motivate people to become fit, helping the company move closer to its goal of making 50 million people fit. Starting from the first week of this month, the 12-week online fitness challenge of TC 12 will be hosted on the Fittr app. The company will be accepting entries of participants aged 18 and above from across the world, without any registration free. Jitendra Chouksey, Founder and CEO, Fittr, said, “At the beginning of each year, people embark on their health and fitness new year resolutions. However, many find it challenging to stick to these goals, as they fail to realize the importance of health and well-being. Though this has changed to a considerable extent due to the pandemic, there is still a long way to go for fitness to become an integral part of our lifestyle. This is what the transformation challenge aims to do – motivate people to rise up to the challenge and invest in their health. Transformation Challenge represents the ethos of Fittr. We strongly believe that anyone can become the best version of themselves with proper knowledge and guidance.” To inspire the Fittr community members and the participants of TC 12, Fittr has also released an anthem ‘Whatever It Takes’. The anthem was released digitally on January 1 on Fittr’s YouTube channel and other platforms. The campaign depicts the determination to embark on a fitness journey and make a change despite many challenges, especially during the lockdown. In addition to this, Fittr has unveiled a message from Bollywood actor Suneil Shetty, encouraging the members of Fittr’s online community to participate in TC 12. Chouksey said, “With Fittr’s Transformation Challenge anthem, Whatever It Takes, we want to encourage our community members and participants to make the most of their fitness journey. It is also a small token of our appreciation for the unbeatable spirit of everyone during these challenging times.” During the transformation challenge, participants are required to upload a video showcasing their transformation, every week. The idea of the transformation challenge is to compete with yourself, as each participant is evaluated based on his or her past journey. While assessing the contestants, factors such as gain in muscle mass, fat loss, and consistency from the past transformation challenges are taken into account. The one who excels in every aspect will become the winner. The grand prize will be given to the top performer across all the editions of TCs that will take place in 2021, including TC 12. This winner will be selected from the top 30 contenders through public voting on the social media channels of the company, based on their consistent performance and contribution to Fittr’s online fitness community. In addition to this, winners will also receive high-end smartwatches and sports shoes. Fittr is well-known for its exciting transformation challenges and the associated rewards, across the world. In 2020, Fittr gave a grand prize of Mahindra Thar to Akshay Gupta, a chartered accountant from Ludhiana, and a brand new Kawasaki Ninja 650 to TC 11 winner, Vihaan Rathore from Jodhpur. Fittr was started in 2014 as a WhatsApp group by JitendraChouksey and later extended its reach to Facebook. In 2018, Fittr launched a full-fledged app which serves as a one-stop solution for all health and fitness guidance-related needs. So far, Fittr has transformed over 150,000 people and 30% of its user base is global, spread across the US, UK, Australia, UAE & Canada. Growing organically, the company has been profitable since inception and secured pre-Series A funding from Sequoia Capital’s rapid scale-up program, Surge.
