8 Week Transformation Challenge WINNER – 2024

LK Fitness hosted the 8 Week Transformation Challenge that inspired women from all walks of life to take on the challenge to lose weight, become fitter, healthier and transform their bodies in just 8 weeks.

The challenge was about body transformation and NOT just weight loss – and we were looking for changes in body shape, muscle definition, and weight/fat loss.

WINNER – Lurinda Swart, aged 47, has achieved remarkable results in just 8 weeks. While not having a significant amount of weight to lose initially, she has undergone an impressive body transformation during this time. Out of our panel of 35 judges, Lurinda received the highest number of votes, earning her prizes worth R45,000. Her journey has served as an inspiration to many, showcasing the tangible rewards of dedication to a well-structured exercise and meal plan. Congratulations, Lurinda, your transformation is truly inspiring. Delve into her story below:

Lurinda’s story

“I am 47 years old and have gone through a health ‘dip.’ My thyroid was underactive, resulting in hormone imbalances and low cortisol levels, along with low iron levels. I had no energy to follow an exercise program. My health improved to such an extent in 2023 with homeopathic medicine that I decided to take on the LK Fitness 8-week challenge on the app in January 2024.

I challenged myself and enrolled. I followed the low G.I. eating plan along with daily exercise and extra challenges. My goal was to strengthen and define my muscles. The exercises became more enjoyable for me because there is a variety of exercises, from Blitz programs for busy days to long cardio sessions for fat burn. The comprehensive exercise and eating plans are so convenient, all under one roof on the LK Fitness App. By week 6 of the challenge, I did experience a setback and considered throwing in the towel. I had to have a serious talk with myself, telling myself to ‘stay in your lane,’ not to compare my progress with others. That was my turning point and motivation. From the beginning of the challenge, I told myself that I am doing this for myself, and if I win, the prizes will just be a BIG bonus! My muffin-top disappeared! This is the beginning of a new lifestyle for me, one that I want to continue building on. Thank you Linda Kriel and your team for an excellent app, I will definitely continue to follow the programs and eating plans on the app!” – Lurinda Swart
