The Winter Challenge is so fun! It is everything I LOVE! Connection, collaboration, teamwork, extra workouts, healthy food, extra protein, leadership, and getting better together.
Thank you to ALL that participated, helped with party prep (Johonna, Meg & Kristen).
A HUGE thank you to Lisa Peters with Elegant Embroidery for the custom designed water bottles and championship gear!
The Faceoff and medal placing help (Jodi) and the calculations (Poor Andrew).
The BIGGEST thanks to the Captains for their heart centered leadership, Therese Barnes for all the scheduling and Scott Sikes for the 1000 + photos.
It took me a month to say this but...WHEN CAN WE DO THIS AGAIN???

WRAP UP
How do you summarize six weeks of teamwork, connection, personal growth, epic leadership, community service, and body recomp?
The KBC Winter Challenge is NOT your typical weight loss contest. Rather than only aiming for weight loss, we focus on body composition, decreasing body fat while simultaneously increasing muscle mass.
The average body fat of the 120 males and females that started this challenge was 31.4%.
The average body fat when they finished was 28.5%.
The average skeletal muscle mass of the 120 males and females that started this challenge was 64.5.
The average skeletal muscle mass when they finished was 64.7!!!!
The average weight of the 120 males and females that started this challenge was 169 pounds.
The average weight when they finished was 162 pounds.
Losing weight, gaining muscle, and losing fat are the secret sauce to sustainable change!!!!
That is the numbers part now for the real meaning behind the KBC Winter Challenge.
During the Winter Challenge, I watch people of all ages and backgrounds step up to be a better version of themselves. From age 17 to 65, goal-minded people take themselves outside their comfort zone, cheer for each other and make time for what's most important in life, health, and happiness.
I am so proud of everyBODY that participated and am elated to say that after 14 years of this competition, we keep evolving and improving.
Stay tuned for the individual standouts, and with all my heart, I want to say THANK YOU, KBC!!
Ps, I know what you are thinking! Will they keep it off? Fifty-five people have signed up for a one-year accountability program with monthly inbody, accountability, coaching, and support!

Team All Stars
Kiss
Heather and I would like to nominate Wendi Kaplan. She has been such an impactful presence since the beginning. So involved on social media with support and positivity. She has also worked through injury. ❤️
Legends
Kim Bielecki Each week it seemed we learned of another obstacle Kim was quietly facing. She had a mountain of legitimate excuses, but she used NONE of them. She was all in just like she said she’d be.
Nora Thapa is a catalyst for growth—she has an honest, vulnerable, witty way of acknowledging hard things but making them feel easy or even fun. The number of times DIFFERENT women posted they were “channeling their inner Nora” or “following Nora’s lead” is impressive.
More than anything else, both of these women are quiet, busy bees doing the hard work few get to see and I want to see them standing alone and applauded by this whole community!
TKO
Nicole Foley has been a tremendous asset to the TKOs team this year. Her daily dedication to KBC classes and tightening up her nutrition. As a recent college graduate , life presents you with all types of challenges, however Nicole made daily choices to create and form a healthy lifestyle filled with fitness. She showed up, she worked hard, and she GOT BETTER! She rocked her INBODY! And we could not be any prouder of her! Nicole Foley is a TOTAL KNOCKOUT ❤️👊🏼🥊
Meredith Banas is an incredible athlete and stands out year after year especially during the winter challenge. She’s brings so much energy and support to our team and leads not only by being a great teammate but also by example. Her results speak for themselves. She absolutely crushed this winter contest and we are so proud to have her on our team and call her a dear friend. Meredith is a TOTAL KNOCKOUT.”

AFNQ
Courtney Jones showed incredible strength, grace and commitment through unimaginable circumstances. Even when it got really hard, she dug deep, locked in and crushed her contest. She was a major galvanizing source of our team bond.
Pat McNanley took a risk coming into the KBC contest fold blind knowing only a couple folks and fit right in with the philosophy, the team, dude camp and totally rose to the occasion as a strong team contributor. He will stay committed via the DW through the remainder of 2023 and serves as inspiration for other dudes to connect into the KBC community.
Usual Suspects
Tara is our quiet teammate who listens and watches everything around her, but stands out and has much to say. She exudes confidence, strength, and determination along with thoughtfulness, kindness, and loyalty.
To know her is to love her.
We are thankful for her friendship and support, and so happy she’s part of our team! We also nominate her to be captain next year! 🤣🤣

A direct and compelling headline

Rookie Captains Ben & Trung led with passion and heart! AFNQ brought SO much to this Challenge. They also came in 1st place for Faceoffs!

TKO pulled numbers I did not think possible. Team Kiss was the most spirited and happy team ever seen, also led by rookie captains Heather & Lori!

Check out the party pictures if you want to see how great this team is. The Usual Suspects are great ALL YEAR, some for 14 years!! They are ambassadors for aging backwards and KBC!

 |
The best crew of leaders KBC has ever seen. Positive, encouraging, engaged, organized and heart centered. The 2023 CAPTAINS have earned their angel wings, jello shots and pizza!

Another shout out to this guy, Andrew is a good sport and always supports my mission and my unrealistic expectations of what I can get done.
