How about a 12 week comp? this way interest won't diminish over the year and people disappear or even forget esp the non-regulars.
I reckon one year is too long, a shorter time like 3 to 6 months would also keep people interested and motivate them to work harder
True Fluff, a year though also gives time for people to slack off and chances are most would be trying their hardest in the last few months of the comp anyway, you can achieve an impressive transformation in 6 months.I understand where your coming from but I reckon to see massive changes its gotta be 12months, if people don't have the staying power they don't deserve to win.

Bricky, how many of the 50+ entrants in this years comp do you think will post afters?
I bet less than half because interest diminished or their goals changed or they simply forgot.
12 weeks will keep the interest alive. (Hopefully)

3 months. I joined here mid year and missed the entry by months. You could have 4 smaller 12 week comps and one Big One for the best of the year.
Over one year, as previously stated the effort will only be in the last 3 months or so, the rest of the time is wasted.Thats my point, it shouldn't be easy, you might only get 10 after photos but some of those will be impressive. 12 weeks is to short 6 months at a minimum
I agree 6 months would be the minimum, but in a year you should be able to go from podgy loser to swole alpha.

"I have all year to do this, I'll train half assed for 6-7 months"
How about a vote? 3,4,6,9, or 12 months.

You won't win if you panic train for 3 months. Look at this years contenders, all going hard and looking big and lean after a solid year -

Its not supposed to be the "easy" transformation or the 12 week cut for a prize.
All you will see in 12 weeks is people doing cuts. 6 months at least lets you bulk then cut, so you can put on some mass.
I didn't realise I was out of contention....
And yes, it should definitely be a 12 month comp.
