Tips for taking progress pictures:
-
1
Full Body (head to toes in full frame). DO NOT take photos in mirrors. Have someone else take them or get a tripod. The more seriously you take these, the more helpful they will be to you!
-
2
Use the Same Pose. Must have front, side and rear full body pose. Do same exact pose for your before photo and your after photo. You can’t compare a relaxed pose to a flexing pose, not the same.
Front Pose: stand relaxed with arms at your sides
Side Pose: turn directly to the side with arms raise straight out in front or at your side (your choice)
Back Pose: stand relaxed with arms at your sides
*Optional: Your Best Pose: You may choose to do a flexing photo for this. Either front double bicep or back double bicep. To show off your hard work.
-
3
Take them at the same time of day. Do them first thing in the morning so you have no variables and you can really judge your progress weekly.
-
4
Take them in the same location, with same lighting, and clutter free background. Lighting I think is most important. Taking pics at the gym under fluorescent lights is going to looks very different then taking them at home in natural light. Find a nice natural light that is NOT too drastic. Natural light will give you more honest results. Find a plain blank wall in your house and always stand in the same exact location!
-
5
Wear the same outfit. I think wearing the same outfit is helpful because when your body actually starts transforming, that outfit will start fitting you different which can be great tool!
Females: bathing suit or sport bra and shorts.
Males: shirtless and shorts

Download Collage App. Compare your pictures side by side utilizing a collage app weekly to check on your progress. Put your oldest photo to the left and your newest photo to the right in the same poses to really clearly see your progress. You will need to have a collage app for the FINAL Submissions
