Thanks to everyone who submitted their pictures for our first Photo Contest! We had some great entries, and it was hard to select only three. We’re looking forward to seeing the submissions for next month’s photos (more details below)! Here’s a quick recap of June’s contest, for any readers who missed it:

For our first contest, readers submitted photos of the CrossFit Regionals at the Breaking Muscle Pinterest page. We selected three winning photos, and the photographers will receive a free tub of Perfect Blocks meal replacement powder!

This month’s winning photos were taken by Brian Sullivan and Carlos Tapia. Here are the three winning photos, in order from first place to third:

1st PLACE: “Azadeh Sealing the Deal” by Brian Sullivan

2nd PLACE: “Noah Ohlsen – Southest Regionals,” by Carlos Tapia

3rd PLACE: “Krissi Brown” by Carlos Tapia

The theme for this month’s contest is “Kettlebell Fever.” Who better to sponsor this contest than the kettlebell queen herself, Lauren Brooks of On the Edge Fitness! Lauren is an RKC Team Leader and has years of experience training clients with kettlebells. If you love kettlebells and aren’t familiar with her website and products, be sure to check it out.

Here’s how to enter:

  1. Head over to the “August Photo Contest: Kettlebell Fever” board on our Pinterest page and follow us. (If you already have, you can skip this step.) Give us about 24 hours to follow you back and add you as a contributor on the photo contest board.
  2. Start pinning! The deadline for submissions is August 23. You can pin as many photos as you like on the photo contest board, as long as they are your own photos of you or someone else training with kettlebells.
  3. Check the Breaking Muscle main page on September 1st to find out if you’ve won. We’ll select three winners, and each one will receive a prize from Lauren Brooks:

1st PLACE: Kettlebell Lightning DVD.

  • 2nd PLACE:  Kettlebells For Women book
  • 3rd PLACE: The Ultimate Body Sculpt and Conditioning With Kettlebells DVD, Volume 1.

IMPORTANT NOTE: By submitting your photos, you grant breakingmuscle.com the right to publish, distribute, archive, and otherwise use the photograph, in whole or in part, in print, electronic, or any other media and for promotional purposes related to the breakingmuscle.com’s products and services. In addition, you represent that you have the right to authorize breakingmuscle.com to use the photograph you are submitting.
