We want to share your videos and expertise! Here's the deal: we will pay you in Bodybuilding.com Cyberstore credit for each video that we publish online. How much? Well, that depends on the video. For basic, quality videos, you will earn up to $25 worth of credit to use at our online store, or $10 cash, per episode. Cash payments will be paid when a minimum of $150 is reached (15 episodes).
For videos that obviously had much more time and energy put into them (and are considerably longer than the average) are going to be worth more. Based on the length and quality of the video, it could be worth $50 or $75. The maximum payout for a single video is $75 worth of Cyberstore credit.
In certain cases, we may want to put your show on a set schedule of two episodes per month, like the Shane Giese show. In this case, we would require two episodes per month, 7-20 minutes in length per episode, and you would earn $150/month*.
We will do the work for you in setting up your own section at Bodybuilding.com. All you have to do is send us your video footage! Who knows, you might even become famous around the world! And you'll definitely be shocked at the massive response you will receive from fellow viewers.
*Note: all terms are negotiable, and handled on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us for details.

Video Submission Guidelines
No plagiarism. We want your original video content (you have to film it yourself, don't just pull someone else's video off of YouTube!) We also encourage you to do research on anything you are unsure about to ensure that you're giving good, sound advice.
Supplement credit is given after the video is published, not before.
We reserve the right to publish or refuse any video.
You agree and acknowledge that your video is original and available for public viewing, and you also agree to grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license and the right to use your video anywhere on our site and/or in our advertisements.
Although we don't believe in censorship, we reserve the right to edit any video we publish. Don't use foul language in the video.
Any video which includes text of any kind must be spell-checked (and grammar-checked). Also, please use proper capitalization and punctuation (no ALL CAPS 'SHOUTING').
As long as they are all high quality, you can submit as many video episodes as you want.
Each episode needs to include a title, date, subject, and your name. This does not have to be in the video although you can if you want to (a title screen).
Acceptable Formats:
Windows Media WMV
Quicktime MOV
Flash FLV
MPEG
MP4/M4V
AVI
You should snail mail us your standard Mini-DV (not HD) tapes or a data CD/DVD. (Email us for the mailing address.)
All tapes must be NTSC, not PAL.
Fullscreen and widescreen aspect ratios are both supported.
High Definition (HD) tapes are not reliable, hence not supported.
Thanks, we look forward to hearing from you soon!
