A great day for fitness in Orlando (The Europa)
Sunday, April 19th, 2009So yesterday was the Europa fitness expo in Orlando, and what a great experience it was. A lot of fitness buffs from all ages showed up yesterday. It didn’t matter if you were two or eighty two there was something there for all yesterday. It was very well run and well organized and remined me of the Arnold Classic years ago before it became way too overcrowded( Anyone who has been to the Arnold in the last few years knows exactly what I am talking about.) There were bodybuilding stars like Marcus Hailey, Diana Cadeau, Bob Chic, and Shawn Ray just to name a few. Not to mention the Mens pro, and Fitness and Figure Pro shows that took place. The Europa also had mens, womens, fitness, and figure ameateur shows that had some pretty stiff competition. Mixed martial arts fans got treated to such guest as Matt Huges. Pro wrestling fans even had a few notable names show up.
Soon as you walked in the door you were dazzled by a display of classic and modern suped up cars. From there there were company booths everywhere, mixed martial arts,strongman competitions,powerlifting, and bodybuilding ,fitness and figure. There was even a awesome play area for the parents to bring there little ones.
Some of the noteable booths were bodybuilding.com (of course) VPX, The Beast, BSN, and Muscle Milk. If you are into free stuff this was the place to be. There were free supplements, t-shirts, hats, and tons of swag for all the swag hags. People were just walking off with bags of freebies and promotional stuff.
Hats off to Ed and Betty Pariso and eveyone who made for an awesome expo!!!
