45 Year Old Wins $25,000 MaxForm Life Challenge

Don Dona BEFORE and AFTER Max Muscle Sports Nutrition

I wished Max Muscle was around when I played football in college. I would like to know what difference the supplements would have made when I was 25 years younger.

Orange, California (PRWEB) August 31, 2011

Competing in the nation's most interactive online weight loss competition, Don Dona lost more than one hundred pounds and 19% body fat to win $25,000 in Max Muscle Sports Nutrition's 2011 MaxForm Life Challenge.

Dona's story rings true for far too many Americans. At 45 years of age, he was very overweight, had Diabetes, and had high blood pressure. He wanted change, real change, and sustainable change in his health, appearance and well-being.

On December 1, 2010 Don Dona decided to publicly declare his war against his weight by entering Max Muscle Sports Nutrition's 'MaxFormation Life Challenge'...an annual national contest with a Grand Prize of $25,000.

Said Dona, "I am 45 years old and have struggled most of my adult life with weight. I have yo-yoed for years ranging from 270 to my highest known weight of 350. The reason I say highest known weight is because the scales did not go any higher. I have been married for 24 years. My wife Darla has supported me through all my weight loss struggles. We have 2 children Donnie 19 and Danielle 15.

I have been a school teacher for 24 years. I coached football for 18 of those years. The past 6 years I have been teaching P.E. I do not like being a bad example for my students. With the help of Max Muscle and my new friends at the Max Muscle Rockwall I am confident that I will change my life."

Don’s success has spawned a national awareness of Nutrition Plans and nutrition planning. Max Muscle Sports Nutrition has honored this interest with a new national 12 Week MaxForm Challenge” featuring a $5,000 Grand Prize. Don, as well as other Top Ten finalists in the 2011 $25,000 MaxForm Life Challenge, will mentor competitors online as they too transform their bodies through proper nutrition and exercise.

How amazing has his transformation been? This is Don Dona seven months later after winning the national competition, and keeping his journaling up to date for the more than 20,000 myMaxMuscle Community members online.

"A friend of mine and old coaching buddy who used to mow lawns with me called on Monday and asked If I would sod one of his customers yards for him. Russell now owns his own lawn service. I gave him some of my accounts when he first started. The yard I am soding was one of my old customers that I gave him. We soded the yard today. Mrs Jahn comes out and we start discussing how to take care of her new yard. She tells me that Don used to mow her yard several years back. We continue to discuss her lawn. When the conversation was over she asked me to tell Don hi when I see him. I look at her and said Mrs Jahn I am Don. She then said no Don the big guy that is the owner. So again I said I am Don the owner. We carried on an entire conversation and she did not even recognize me. It is still hard for me to comprehend it!"

John Hagaman, the owner of the Rockwall, Texas Max Muscle Sports Nutrition store where Don Dona first walked in the door of a Max Muscle Sports Nutrition store, has been a big fan of Don from the moment he first met him.

"When Don came in the store to talk with me I knew that I had more work cut out for me than the normal customer. Don had been given years of mis-information about dieting that I had to overcome. He had this mindset that I had to change. Within about 30 min we had him back on track and ready to do this. Don’s weight has gone up and down for many years, but Don has truly changed is entire lifestyle for the long haul."

Don's Certified Fitness Nutrition Coach (CFNC), Adam Gilbreath of the Rockwall store added more. "Don has done everything I have asked of him. He trusted me with his Nutrition Plan and supplement program. He was really committed to wanting to make the change in his life. No one deserves this more than Don!"

Thousands of competitors from around the country competed in the annual MaxFormation Life Challenge and its $25,000 Grand Prize. For the first time in more than six years, the winner was a Male. The success of this years' competition has generated a new Max Muscle Sports Nutrition competition called, "12 Week MaxFormation Challenge". Beginning September 15th, participants will strive to reach their personal goals by purchasing a personal 12 Week Nutrition Plan developed by a Max Muscle Sports Nutrition Certified Fitness Nutrition Coach (CFNC), journal their experiences weekly on their myMaxMuscle profile, and reach those goals in the 12 Week period. Every participant that reaches his or her goal, qualifies to win the $5,000 Grand Prize. The best 12 Week MaxFormation from those qualified contestants will win the $5000 cash prize!

"From September 15th through December 15th is twelve weeks and then the 2012 MaxFormation Life Challenge begins." said Sean Greene, President of Max Muscle Sports Nutrition. "Last year's champion, Don Dona, started his weight loss journey earlier in the year…in September. We only took into consideration the weight he lost from December 1st, 2010 through June 30th, 2011. We thought it would be even better to allow those additional weeks to be included in the MaxFormation Life Challenge which gave rise to the 12 Week competition. Now those individuals who want to also compete in MaxFormation 2012 will have their efforts in the 12 Week MaxFormation Challenge count as well. We're about health and fitness 12 months out of the year, and people everywhere are striving to reach their goals year round. They come to Max Muscle Sports Nutrition to reach those goals."
