Competition Terms and Conditions

Unless expressly stated otherwise in the Competition Rules these Terms apply to all competitions run (including, without limitation, in print, online, at events or on social media pages) by Kim Constable Ltd (a company registered in Belfast, Northern Ireland) whose registered address is Unit 1, Ground Floor, Belmont Office Park, 232-240 Belmont Road, Belfast, BT4 2AW. (“Kim Constable Ltd”) and/or any group companies wholly or partially owned by Kim Constable Ltd.
Kim Constable Ltd reserves the right to amend and update these Terms at their sole discretion from time to time and such changes will become effective as soon as they are published on the relevant site/publication.
In these Terms “Company” shall mean any employee of Kim Constable Ltd, including online coaches and moderators of the plans created by Kim Constable Ltd.

Such a decision will be final and no correspondence will be entered into about a decision regarding eligibility.
Entry
- Unless otherwise stated, entrants may make one entry to a competition; entries will only be accepted when an original entry form is used unless stated as a specific condition of the competition.

Judging and Draws

Judges will decide the top finalists announced on the date specified in the Competition Rules on social media. The winner(s) will be selected by the judges and also notified on the date specified in the Competition Rules on social media. When deciding the top finalists, judges will look for the contestants who have made the biggest overall transformation, not necessarily those who are the most “ripped” or “shredded”.

In the event one or more persons are disqualified from the top finalists, Kim Constable Ltd has the right to change the distribution of prize money.
