    • 5:00 pm-7:00 pm (by appointment only)

    Initial weigh-in will include height, weight, body fat analysis and pictures.

    Girth Measurements only taken by a personal trainer (contact trainer to set up time). Weight recorded in whole pounds. If you cannot make any of these times for your initial weigh- in, call Main St. Gym to schedule your weigh-in time.

  2. Weekly weigh-ins will be offered at any time. Just ask a staff member to assist you. Mandatory weighs in end of week 4 (Sept 24th) to end of week 8. Final weigh in will be November 19th.

    Weekly weigh ins are optional, but are a good tool for you to see where you are ,provide you with some incentive and motivation to keep going and discuss your strategies with the fitness staff. Initial & final weigh ins are mandatory.

    (If a contestant does not weigh in during mandatory weigh-ins the last recorded body weight will be used to determine team standings.)

    Participants must weigh in with the following attire each time: shorts/shirt. If you choose to have your information featured as part of the contest, you must be weighed by the Main St. Gym staff. You may have time to discuss your week with the staff or via emailing the trainers, but if you would like detailed, personal fitness information, please take advantage of purchasing personal training & nutrition services at a discount rate (available for Biggest Loser participants only).

  3. The final weigh-in is required and will be held on Friday, Nov 19th during the following times:

    • 5:00 am to 7:00 pm

    If you cannot make any of these times for your final weigh-in, call Main St. Gym to schedule your weigh-in time.

  4. The Biggest Loser prize will be awarded to the team with the greatest percentage of weight loss, not necessarily the team who loses the most weight in pounds. For example, Joe weighs 190 lbs at the beginning of the contest and he losses 20 lbs for an ending weight of 170 lbs. So Joe has loss 10.5% of his body weight. Bob weighs 250 lbs and losses 25 lbs for an ending weight of 225 lbs, so Bob has loss 10% of his body weight. Joe will win with a greater percentage of weight loss. In the event of a tie, the tied team winner’s names will be drawn randomly to determine the Grand Prize winner.
