What is the Ultimate You challenge?

The Ultimate You is an 8-week weight loss and transformation challenge. It is a partnership between Health24 and the local online health and fitness support community Sleekgeek.  

We have combined our knowledge and expertise to bring you an 8-week transformation system to help you become the Ultimate You – whether it means losing weight, packing on muscle, or just living a healthier and happier life.


How does it work?

                                       

Easy! Once you’ve bought an entry into the challenge, you get access to a wide variety of exercise and nutrition plans along with a bunch of powerful resources to help you get from Point A to Point B over the next 8 weeks. We also provide you with the focus, support, and motivation that you need to stay on track and achieve amazing results over the next 8 weeks.

You choose what you want to focus on. Losing weight, toning up, or just learning to live a healthier life, step by step. At the end of the 8 weeks, our independent panel of judges will award some amazing prizes based on weight loss and body transformations achieved.
