It’s that time of year again — holidays, joy, sugar cookies, and gift-giving. We’re looking for YOU to create your 2019 holiday gift list — a product list that will help an out-of-touch shopper buy gifts for their special and significant trainee. This is the time to be specific with your ideas: 10 Items for the Retired Powerlifter Who Can’t Tie His Shoe Laces, 5 Items for the Gym Bro in a Quest for an Instagram Total, 6 Attachments to Build a Christmas Tree Back... you get the idea.
Last year, some team members joined in, too:
-
12 Gifts to Warm the Heart of Your Anti-Social Friend by Marilia Coutino -
5 Gym Rat Gifts for Less Than $20 by Skip Hill -
5 Survival Must-Haves for the Parents of a Newborn Baby by Chris Janek
Each entry needs an intro, a listing of items, an explanation for each item (why), a closing paragraph, and a 3-4 sentence bio.
Check out the four examples from last year below:
- 2018's $500-winning article:
Credit Card Swipe for These 5 Garage Gym Owner Gifts by Codey Williams -
4 Gifts You Want and 7 You Actually Need for Getting Back into Lifting by Garrett Harper -
5 Items to Make This the Fattest Chrism-ass Ever by Austin Mayfield -
7 Gifts for the Next Instafamous Powerlifter by Robert Villanova
Send your holiday gift list to
articles@elitefts.net. If your article is selected (based on cleverness, attention to detail, formatting style, creativity, good looks, PL total, etc.), you’ll be notified with a publishing date and $50. We’ll be accepting articles from now until December 15th.
After all of the Christmas gift lists are published, we'll then open a voting poll for readers and team members to choose the best list — the winner will win an additional $500!
Note: The $50 and $500 will be provided in elitefts store points. 1 point = $1. Points are redeemable upon store checkout.
