The Arnold Classic Weekend is Almost Upon Us!
Well it’s that time of year again for the Arnold Classic. I must admit I am really excited to see who’s going to rise to the top in the men’s pro bodybuilding division. Phil Heath is the favorite going into this but there are a few guys who could very well steal the show. Most notably they are Toney Freeman, Kai Greene, and Dexter Jackson. Any one of these guys could steal the show and in my opinion, if Kai Greene nails his conditioning he will be your next Arnold Classic champion.
For me, this marks my one year anniversary being a part of the supplement industry. I must say it has been a wild thus far with plenty of ups and downs. What amazes me is that last year I was just another guy walking around the Expo meeting various industry personalities and collecting samples. Fortunately, I was able to walk away from the weekend with a great opportunity with an esteemed company like Gaspari Nutrition due to a sincere interest in seeing what the “other side” of the booth was like.
It just goes to show that anything is possible this weekend. For any of you planning on attending the Arnold Classic weekend this year with hopes and dreams of getting your foot in the door with a great company or to be noticed this is your grand opportunity. I know there is still a strong desire within me as well.
I guess the moral of the story is that whether you are a bodybuilder battling out on stage under the bright lights or mere spectator this experience is all about seizing the day. Make the most of your experience and don’t be afraid to take chances whether it’s approaching your favorite bodybuilder or even living out your dream of becoming somebody in this industry. I know for myself it’s been an interesting road to travel down and it certainly will be interesting to discover where it leads this weekend and beyond.
nothing else matters
