BTI #369: Magazine Cover Contests

It was 2017 when I received the biggest news I had ever received in my entire career. For the 15 years prior to that moment, I had photographed countless fitness talents for countless fitness magazine covers. Sadly, never having the opportunity to reach my own lifelong dream of me being on a cover. That changed when I received the offer to not only photograph, but to personally be honored to appear on the cover of Gainz Magazine. I had been training for two and a half hours a day. 6 days a week, for the past 5 months to get my body to a place where it could be photographed and properly photoshopped. My meal plan consisted exclusively of tilapia and asparagus. I had never felt more humbled that the editors entrusted me to photograph myself as a rising fitness talent. Did I mention this all happened on April 1, 2017. This was one of my most effective April fools jokes I had ever done. I received hundreds of congratulating comments for all my hard work on the fake post I created. Today, we are discussing magazine cover contents. "You are already worthy of media features, but you do not need media features to be worthy." IN THIS EPISODE What it really takes to win a cover contest. Reading the fine print. Is there really a print edition? "Special" print edition. What you can and can't say when you win. The effort that goes into participating in these contents. Taking the same energy to actually earn a magazine feature.
