12/18/2011 update: T-Shirts and other apparel now available! Go to: BrinkZone Apparel Page
People have asked me about BrinkZone T shirts for years, and I’ve finally gotten off my butt to make it happen. Below are the designs/colors I’m considering. However, what I need to really make them a “must have” T shirts is a great motto- and or artwork – for the back of the T Shirt. 😉
So, I’m going to have a contest! Submit the motto and or artwork you think best represents what the BrinkZone is about, and you will win a free T shirt and free access to either my Body Building Revealed or Fat Loss Revealed Programs!
I’m going to run this contest from Sept. 5th to Oct 5th, and then I’ll choose my favorite of what is submitted for a motto and or artwork, and the shirt will be available shortly after that!
What am I looking for? Anything you feel would best represent the spirit, style, tone of the BrinkZone web site. It can be funny, serious, ironic, I don’t care.
If I don’t feel anything submitted fits the bill by Oct 5th, I’ll use my own ideas…
Interesting factoid: that’s exactly how this site was come to be called The BrinkZone. I did a contest for the best name for a web site, and BrinkZone was my favorite. Can’t recall what the prize was, but it was a fun contest. In fact, the responses came mostly by letter to my PO Box at the time, as few people had email and the contest was mentioned in my monthly column in MuscleMag International at the time. Talk about “back in the day” memory flashback!
OK, submit your ideas for a cool/funny/crazy motto (and or artwork) you think would be fitting for the BrinkZone T Shirts.
If not, would you be interested in a shirt once available? What’s your favorite color/design of those below?
Let me know!

All Science, No Bull
I like that! On the list for sure.
“Get Smarter or Get Left Behind”
I like that one! Funny 🙂
On the BRINK of final fitness ZONE.
Where strength training, sensible diet, and science collide.
Good one Jen! 🙂
Will,
I like the design with the small logo over the left pec. I prefer the gray to the orange, but if I were you, I’d offer a variety of colors for the shirt itself.
As for the motto, here’s a couple of ideas:
1. “Awesomeness is a Way of Life”
2. “Body by Brains”
3. “The Science of Muscle”
“Training with the mind, body, and heart of a champion.”
…or the black shirt with large, centered logo.
On the Brink of success.
Just apply it.
please keep working like u are doing
Strength Revealed
I like the black one, but i’m partial to black.

“Brinkzone logo”
Take it to the BRINKZONE
Hi Will, black looks good the first design is also very eye catching.
Thought for the back what about “It’s the BiZ!!”
” Go Big”
Therefore tying your front design with the back, plus it is what I think of your website.
Thanks

another poss idea.
sorry the words of S.W.A.T running down should read
Strength, willpower, attitude, trained.
The first orange one looks best to me. What about “In The Brinkzone,” “Brinkbuilding,” “Built By Brink,” “Build With Brink,” “Brink It Out,” “On The Brink Side,” “Secure Your Build With Brink,” “Brink Or Bust,” “Brink And Act,” “Brink And Bulge,” “Brink And Build,” “Eat, Sleep, And Train With Brink,” or “Don’t Brink Alone” ? You can see I’m really overBrinking here. Hope you weren’t teased over your last name when you were a kid. Anyways, if you don’t hate me know…..
Oh man, this competition is heating up!
Back in the day when I had a private training biz, my shirts/cards said “Body By Brink”
Too simple for the BrinkZone I think 🙂
Check out The Brinkzone for what’s up with your supp.
Correction. Prefer first black T-shirt.
I may not be taking this contest that seriously, but what do you really want to convey with your motto?
See my description above regarding what I’m looking for. 🙂
If it’s on, it’s on the BrinkZone.
or
I’ll see you, on the BrinkZone.
or
Brink it first, on the BrinkZone
or just
Brink it
I think you should start over.
How about, “I’m on the Brink of greatness!”
“BRINKING Fun to Fitness!” Accompanied by Pic of Technicolor balloon attached to dumbbells – that’s my idea.
Have a nice day,
Jay
sick and tired of the BS
then log on to B.Z. (brinkzone.com)
to get the real facts on fitness and bodybuilding
FRONT: BRINKZONE
BACK: BREAKING IT ALL DOWN FOR YOU.
Will breaking through a brick wall with a sledgehammer, prowler, ect…
Drink the Brink.
Educating your brain to grow your body.
Forget the BULL – Get in the ZONE
I like the black shirts best.
Pure science for your fitness goals
Science to attain/achieve optimal body composition
I like all of them.
What about having a flexed arm with either Built the Brink Way or The only way is the Brink Way?
Maybe someone has already come up with idea.
Sorry I have left the females out. Maybe the arm flexed should be one of a male and one of a female with their arms crossed over each another. This shows that building muscle is just not for men only.
You can get a Public Domain images and use basic edit to give you the image. There are a lot out there which will not cost to use, I do it all the time.
I like the orange and the black with the small circle. I like either color.
Orange is one of the least flattering colours to skin tones also it’s not very popular with guys, how about grey or blue instead?
Hi Will,
You should offer at least 4 colors. Black, Blue, Orange, Yellow. That should work with any skin color.
Small logo on the breast is good.
On the back, or down a sleeve,,’There’s no BS in Brinkzone’.
Company I will probably use will offer a large selection of colors, so we should not be limited to the two above.
Some great ideas here folks!!! 🙂

mr. will please write motive for egs. for good health for solid body on tee shirt i mean salogan
Dear will,
I’ll buy every product you sell. On this occasion I want to thank you for the wonderful products you offer eg BBR and FLR on all add various types. I am lucky that I had the opportunity to purchase it. Most people pay their money and invest the compensation would be appropriate for the investment. In this case the consideration is above and beyond all proportion. And what’s more I wish you could add more shows with her Frotzidora from there today. And I mean more in other areas. Such as: How to develop the flexibility of the body. Or How to treat back pain and what causes them. On any product that will be I will the first to purchase.
How about — “Brain vs Pain” ?
Brink Through All the Hype and BS
or
Brink the facts back to fitness
or
Fitness + Science = BrinkZone
Some GREAT ideas coming in! Keep them coming folks! 🙂
How about “No brain, no gain”
I like both the black and the orange, but think the small BZ logo on the orange t-shirt would look better with the third colour (like the black one has), i.e. try making the ‘B’ and the ‘Z’ black. Having said that I like the small logo on the black shirt, but the bigger one on the black! I don’t know why that is!
Build muscle, lose fat, the Brink Zone will teach you that
The smart way to lose weight
The sure way to gain strength
Will Brink will do the trick!
—
Pack the muscle, burn the fat,
The Brink Zone will help a TON

A couple of silly ideas 🙂
Complete Muscle Fitness or Complete Muscle Science.
As for the Tee, either Black lettering on white or vice versa, both make striking combination.Cheers Gregh
how bout the small bz logo on front corner of chest and in the back a big bs crossed out like a no parking sign and circling around it the words combatant in the world of fitness since-yr or the no#1 science based performance resource I’d rock that
I love the first black t shirt. How about Brink Up! You Are On The Brink Of Something Special! I Am On The Brink….Of Something! You Are Entering…The Brink Zone!
I love the articles. Keep up the good work.
Motto for shirt: My ex-wife got a million bucks. I got this great shirt. Nuff said.
Another slogan “Muscles by Science”
Think Brink – perfect performance with the reliance of science
I like it! See above idea I have.
Liking the suggested logo
I like the smaller logo on the dark shirt.
“Cutting through the crap”
or
“Great Taste Less Crap”
“You’re never alone in the ZONE” !
will for your t shirt contest truth justice and the american way
hell yea i will buy a couple t-shirts black no orange…………..unless you are soo proud of them that you put a crazy high price on them…………………take it to the brink
Folks, see above! I think that covers the spirit of the BrinkZone in an easy to understand and (hopefully!) humorous fashion! What say you??!! 🙂
Looks great! Short and sharp. Will also get those people who are unfamiliar with the term “bro science”, asking questions.
Hi Will,
Whatever T-shirt wins, will you make sure there are women’s sizes and styles available? Us girls appreciate it!
Thanks!
Amy
What about the girls? It’s got to be cute, right? How about something tight/fitted with capped sleeves? I like the logo in general, has a euro-hip feel, but the color and style HAS to be appealing to fit females if you want the advertising to work 🙂
That’s my .02 anyway!
Thanks for a great blog. I only read/watch this and Tom Venuto’s stuff and appreciate the science and real life (in-vitro and in-vivo) information.
Here’s my girlie (hey, and that’s not a bad thing!) shot at a free program (I already have BBR, so I need the fat loss one!)
1)All the goodness minus the Flab
2) the Science of Living Lean and Looking Great
3) Fit For Real
people will think what is BrinkZone.black is good
Have we had a winner?
Good Q, and thanx for asking. I have been out of the country for a few weeks, so had to put this one one hold for a few. I have the design and logo I plan to use and will have that info up asap.
Some GREAT and funny suggestions, but I think I’ll go with something more generic which spells out what the BrinkZone is about. Something like:
“Where the science of health, performance, and bodybuilding lives” under the No Bro Science logo
Well I’m not sure if you’re still collecting ideas or not, but I had a thought late last night (must’ve been something I ate)! I thought that most people know the program Myth busters, and you are really the “myth buster” on fat loss and gaining lean muscle. So thought it would be good to use “myth buster” in some kind of catchy phrase. Fat loss & body building myth-buster.
Body under construction – mind on a mission!
ultimate nutrition at its best
Hey Will, Just wondering if your T shirts are available yet or if you have even decided on a final design? I am 6 months into changing my life by changing the way I eat, live and workout! I am 35 and All my life have been plagued by being skinny. No matter how hard I would work it wouldn’t show. It took me years and a lot of motivation to finally figure out what properly works cause there is alot of crap info out there! I am a Mobile heavy duty mechanic and was having trouble lifting at work and even struggling at times lifting my 65 pound five year old. I decided to finally make a change for the better changing the way I think about life and setting goals on my workouts. Then I stumbled upon your site one day and absolutely loved your creatine reports! I try to follow your site as much as I can because I feel you offer very useful info. I would love to have a shirt please let me know on their progress!
Tom Gretchen
Tom, T-shirts are in progress actually, so good timing to ask. I hope to have them for sale in a week or two at most. Will be offering several designs and shirts. Stay tuned! 🙂
