I went to the finals of the Kina Elyassi NPC East Coast show in DC tonight as a spectator and student.  It was a great show and I learned a lot in order to help me prep for my first show which will be sometime next year.  The dude who won the overall surprised me very much as he looked much bigger than a bantamweight, and while he had size and definition, his pecs lagged a great deal and were overshadowed by the rest of his physique.  But the quality of all the competitors was phenomenal, and their dedication was displayed with each pose.   I have a lot of work to do in the meantime! 

Normally, I only write about stuff relevant to my training, nutrition, etc. here, but last night at the gym, the networks were tuned into the Democratic primary results.  I stayed up pretty late watching the coverage and commentary.  It’s such a historic moment that Obama is now the first Black presidential nominee of a major party.  Who would have thought that he would have came of nowhere and defeat a former first lady and one of the most powerful people in the party?  Heck, he has made history even if he doesn’t win in November.  But I hope he does!
