Special Announcement:

@radicalbodytransformations is joining the @toprosupershow!!!  On June 3rd, 2022 RBT we will be introducing a transformation event held on the Toronto Pro SuperShow stage.

Diversity of goals are welcomed and we are here to share your story!

RBT Transformation Show Rules*

 Three weeks prior to the show (deadline of May 13th, 2022) participants must pay the entrance fee of $200 CAD as well as complete an online google form providing their information.**  This form will require a brief description of what they have had to overcome as part of their transformation as well as various high resolution before pictures to be used both as part of the judging process as well as during the show, on screens when the participants walk out.  Additionally information on weight loss/gain changes will be required as part of the submission form.  There is no membership fee required such as a CPA or other membership.   


The Transformation category is not just about weight loss: it could also be for individuals overcoming anorexia/bulimia, disease, cancer, mental health disorders, and other health disorders. This event is a true celebration of a personal journey to a more healthy lifestyle.  It may also be about weight/muscle gain or simply body composition change.  We celebrate the individual and provide a platform to display themselves and their transformation.  


The date is the evening of June 3rd, 2022 as part of the Toronto Pro SuperShow approximately between 8pm and 11pm.  


There will be at least two major categories.. 1) Fit/Athletic transformation division and 2) Lifestyle transformation division.  On the submission form, participants will be asked about which category they are entering.  Depending on turn out there may be further subdivision based on if participants have competed before.  If participants have not competed before, they can enter as a “true novice”.  True novices will then be judged against each other and not have to compete with veteran competitors.  (This is to limit seasoned competitors from sand bagging and winning against true novices by simply bulking and cutting).  Along these lines the concern is not someone competing around the same time as our event at other shows or categories.  The concern is someone who is experienced in bulking and cutting in their past and using that competition experience to try and bulk and then cut to win.  So someone competing three weeks before (as an example) is still considered a novice.  The issue comes when they have cut and then bulked between competitions.    


Fit Division

The fit division is based more for the person who has generally lived a healthy lifestyle most of their life and has either a) fallen off to a degree due to circumstance and/or b) has decided to then take a more serious approach to health and fitness.  This is someone who now looks fit and maybe even has a goal of one day competing at a CPA division but this is a stepping stone for them.  The story is relevant but maybe not to the same degree as the lifestyle division but is still a factor.  This division is for the person in between a lifestyle transformation and someone ready to compete in a CPA style category.    


Lifestyle Division


The lifestyle division will be for the individual who has significantly transformed both mentally and physically.  This could be a great weight loss, and/or overcoming a serious illness, trauma or very unhealthy lifestyle choices. The story of how the individual overcame these hardships is important. This division is also for individuals who have had a great body change but could still be in the process of completing their journey.  


The divisions will also be subdivided by male and female and possibly age, depending on turn out.  We want to reward the maximum number of people possible.     


Additional Rules 

All participants must be at least 16 years of age and older, male or female. Contestants will be judged on their personal story and weight loss transformation. Weight loss can be anywhere from 10 pounds to over 100 plus pounds.  Also judged is overall body composition change.  Contestants will present themselves on stage at the live show. Contestants must submit 300 words or less write up about their personal story.  


There are two rounds.  There is a beachwear round and an evening round.  The evening round will be near the end.  


Beachwear Round: For females: 2 piece or one piece personal choice – any suit that compliments the contestant and is classy. Shoes worn must also complement the contestant's outfit.  3-5 inch heels preferred.  For males: boy short / classic physique style trunks or board shorts with bare feet, sandals, or sport shoes that also fit the attire.  


Participants before photos are shown on the big screens and we tell a bit about their story and have them come out on stage.     


Participants will be asked to the x on the stage and to do 2-3 poses of their choosing to show off their physique.  This can include bikini style poses, figure style poses, bodybuilding style poses, physique style poses or even just fun poses to show not only the body but the participant’s personality.    


Evening Round:  Stage walk. Attire for this round is any classy outfit of your choice, it can be a nice outfit, suit, dress shirt, dress.  For the men it could be dress pants with a tight shirt for example.    Semi formal evening wear is what is recommended.  


A five to nine judge panel will review photos and stories prior to the day of the show to become familiar with each competitor. On show day, competitors will have their essays read aloud by emcee (or a summary version) along with their initial pictures displayed. Competitors will be scored and placed (1st, 2nd, 3rd...) according to their photos and essays.  Entries are judged based on physical transformation over the time span, including body fat loss, muscle gained, challenges overcome and on the articulation of that transformation through the essay.  The top 3 (of each division) will come out and accept their award on competition day, while wearing their evening round attire.  


It is suggested that participants get tanning and make-up done.  We recommend Absolute Touch who will be on site for the show and doing touch ups backstage for the show.  They are the official beauty team for the event  https://www.absolute-touch.ca/services  


For photo packages, this will include candid red carpet photos as well as stage photos.  Red carpet pics are exclusive for the RBT event and will take place after the event while evening wear attire is on and after awards are given out.  Photo and video packages can be acquired here:   https://zoomimagepros.square.site/product/radcial-body-transformation/39?cs=true&cst=custom

ABOUT JAMES HERGOTT


James Hergott’s lifelong passion for storytelling, combined with his vast experience as a filmmaker, writer, director, producer, creative consultant and bodybuilder, culminated into the Radical Body Transformations documentary series and fitness/weight-loss movement. Seasons 1 and 2 have been released via Google Play, Apple TV and Amazon Prime in the US, Canada, UK, Australia and New Zealand and is now filming its third season as the RBT fitness movement gains new worldwide participants and momentum each day.


His first feature film, All That I Need, debuted at the Cannes International Film Festival in 2005 and secured a limited theatrical release with Regal Entertainment Group. The film gained critical acclaim, and symbolized the moment in which Hergott was recognized as a ‘filmmaker to watch’. The San Antonio Express News commended Hergott for ‘showcasing gumption and creative sleight of hand, sure to take him further as a director and writer’.


Off the back of his Cannes success, from 2005 to 2007 Hergott served as president of publicly traded Beverly Hills entertainment production and distribution company, Imperia Entertainment. Under James’ management, Imperia produced a number of multi-million dollar films and television entities including Say It In Russian, a film starring Academy Award winner Faye Dunaway with a budget of $5 million.


In 2008, Hergott wrote, directed and produced the MMA reality show MMA Worldwide which was distributed nationally on Mark Cuban’s HDNET (now AXS TV). Gaining an insight into the world of MMA inspired James to learn more, and to share social awareness of the sport. This brought him to Iraq, in which he produced a documentary about the first ever MMA Fights in Iraq, titled A Fight For The Troops. This documentary film was extremely successful, and James was awarded a Greywolf Medal by the US Army for his contribution to sharing valuable and engaging content that had largely been dismissed by mainstream media.


In 2010 he headed back to Canada where he wrote and executive produced a documentary feature film focused on UFC Champion, George St.Pierre, entitled, The Striking Truth, which was distributed globally.


Due to his success in film, James sought to combine his work with his passion for fitness. After winning national awards in bodybuilding for the Canadian Physique Alliance (CPA) and competing in the IFBB World Qualifiers, in 2013 James was given the opportunity to work as Business Director and Creative Consultant for the multi-award winning documentary Generation Iron. The film had become the number one sports/fitness film in the world to that point.


In 2015, James independently founded Radical Body Transformations, an inspiring documentary series. It features people from all walks of life who are on a weight loss and fitness journey to better their lives both mentally and physically and was distributed by Amazon Prime in more than 3 continents.  In 2016 he produced SWOLE distributed by VICE media.  Around this time he also went on Dragon's Den and secured a deal with a top investor.  


In 2019, Hergott joined forces with New York real estate mogul Anthony Lolli after Lolli had tremendous success with his own ultimate radical body transformation. Working as partners, the three expanded the current docudrama series into a full length feature Documentary, From Fat Lolli to 6 Pack Lolli, in addition to creating an inspiring global online fitness community and brand.  From Fat Lolli to 6 Pack Lolli quickly became the top fitness film on Amazon Prime and won film festival acclaim including the LA Documentary Film Fest for most Inspirational Documentary and 2021 Best Documentary in the Katra Film Series.


Hergott has interviewed some of the world’s most elusive and influential figures including Dr Jordan B Peterson and has appeared in global media coverage from Fox News to Costco Magazine.  He is currently casting for seasons 3 and 4 of Radical Body Transformations as the brand continues to expand and reach new heights.
