Welcome to Racked Philly's search for Philadelphia's hottest trainer. We're barreling full steam ahead toward our final face-off poll on Monday, August 25. Forty-eight hours later will mark the moment we've all been waiting for: One of our finalists will officially be crowned the Hottest Trainer in Philly.

The women in this year's contest (clockwise from top left): Jessica Daley, Emily Rothrock, Rachel Rubin, Juliet Sabella

Last month, we put out an open call for Philadelphia's hottest fitness trainers. From there, our panel of experts combed through tons of shirtless, sweaty photos to select eight contestants. (We know, it was hard work.) Now, it's time to begin the voting process. Here's how it'll go down: Between now and tomorrow (Friday), we'll open two polls: one for the girls and one for the guys. One winner from both polls will progress the final face-off on Monday, and on Wednesday, August 27, one of our finalists will officially be crowned the Hottest Trainer in Philly.

First up, the women of the competition: SVU binge watcher/tiny dancer Jessica Daley, Nike hoarding girl next door Emily Rothrock, flaxen-haired kettlebell fanatic Rachel Rubin, and perky Rob Zombie fan/star spinner Juliet Sabella.

Each poll will close 48 hours after it's published, so you have until 10:45am on Saturday, August 23, to vote for your favorite. To the poll!
Update: This poll is now closed.
