I responded to the Ad and, surprisingly, got a response three days later. I thought there would be hundreds of people interested and, since I noticed the ad three days later, I would not get any response. Anyway, it turned out the Ad was placed by Santa Monica based fitness products marketing company, BEACHBODY.
They asked me for more personal physical and lifestyle information and then I was invited for a meeting on Monday, December 13, 2010 in a Santa Monica office. There were a number of people but none of them looked extremely overweight or out of shape. Meeting was almost like an audition. It required filling questionnaire on paper followed by seeing three people in a room, in front of a camera. They took a few pictures of me without shirt and asked a few questions about my diet and why I want to participate in the program. The meeting was video taped.
The workout will start on January 10 and the program will last 90 days. Those selected will be notified. I don’t know whether I will be selected because I, although not muscular, am in a descent, active shape already and may not be a good case subject. However, if possible, I will still follow the program and report its outcome in 90 days.
The details of the Ad were as follows:
