Mike Horn’s BodyBlog

Happy to say I wil be the guest poser for the 2008 NPC Jr USA May 17 in Charleston, SC.  I won the overall last year and went on to earn my pro card.  I look forward to seeing everyone there .  I will be making appearnces this year in AL, FL, GA, and more.  For a complete schedule go to MikeJanHorn.com and email me.

Sat. oct. 20th here in Mobile we had a great group of competitors show up to better theirselves. We had beginners that have never competed and advanced that have placed as high as 2nd in the USA and overall in Alabama state Championships. It is always a great motivator to see other competitors and hear what their doing. You always learn when competitors come together. This Sat. was no different we went thru dieting, supplements, posing, presentation, color, etc… THE BEST PART WAS THE NEW RESEARCH THAT HAS JUST COME OUT ON HOW TO BRING UP YOUR WEAKEST BODYPART IN THREE WEEKS! We took all the competitors thru one bodypart that we thought needed the most work (however, they all looked good) and blitzed it. The workout actually creates additional mitochondria within a muscle (John Parrillo did 5 yrs. of research proving this technique). We know 08′ will be a better year for all the competitors that came. They are all better competitors after this weekend and it will be rewarding watching them compete at another level. I know at least 2 of the competitors that attended will go pro in 08′.  That will make 7 competitors we have helped to the pro ranks not including myself. Look forward to our next camp Nov. 10th at CLUB BOOM in Datona Beach FL.

OCT. 25 IN WEST PALM BEACH I MADE A GUEST APPEARENCE AT THE FLORDIA GOLD CUP BODYBUILDING CHAMPIONSHIPS AND ZENA COLLINS FIGURE CHAMPIONSHIPS. IT WAS A GREAT SHOW AND MANY PROS SHOWED UP INCLUDING TONY FREEMAN, MARCUS HALEY, CHRISTINA WAN, TERA SCOTTI, KRISTEN NICEWARNER, OF COURSE ZENA COLLINS. MY WIFE JAN HORN WORKED THE BOOTH WITH ME AS WE GAVE OUT THE NEW ISSUE OF THE NPC NEWS MAGAZINE WHERE I HAVE SEVERAL PAGES OF MYSELF INSIDE INCLUDING A FULL PAGE OVERALL PICTURE.

PETER POTTER LOOKED BETTER THAN EVER AND ALWAYS BUSY RUNNING THE SHOW. WE MET THE SOUTH FLORDIA JUDGES . THEY WERE ALL EXPERIENCED JUDGES AND ALL LOOKED VERY PROFESSIONAL WITH MATCHING NAVY BLAZERS WITH A CREST ON THE CHEST. FRANK DALTO WAS A VERY BUSY PERSON AS WELL SAT.
