NPC Indiana, a touch of class

I'm a athlete and a competitor and over here in the NPC Indiana you will experience a touch of class, not to mention good ole Mid-Western charm. The panel of judges share the same passion for the sport as you and me. They are professional and represent NPC Indiana very well. I'm very proud of all of them.

Its that time of the year again, get your posing trunks out and your stain(tan) on as its showtime..... This weekend is the Evansville Southern Indiana show. Just to refresh your memory here are the Indiana Show dates  and you can also check out npcindiana.org for the applications to the shows

Good luck to all of you. "you are all champions"-Jon Lindsay

Iron Pit Mr. Indiana, and the Bar Benders band


Way to Go Butller..Heading to the Final Four. I just love Bulldogs

Iron Pit is the Shizznet. So I was training yesterday and got to see John Mellancamps son being trainied by one of the trainers in the gym. Not to mention John's super model ex wife trains as well as the president of IU. Pretty nice if you ask me, and they know where the best gym is and its here. Seriously people this is the gym of gyms. IYou absolutly need to check it out for yourself. IT DOES NOT GET NY BETTER THAN THIS. This gym has been around a long time and instead of 24 hours its 25 hours lol. Just look at the sign if you don't believe me. It was another wonderful day in the gym yesterday and I will talk about yesterdays workout later. For now its time to brag. You know I just have to give compliemnts and kuddos. LOL. So here is Mr. Indiana form the Indiana State show back in the day. Very impressive tiny waist and an 8 pack lol. He reminds me of a buff Ken doll :) or better yet He-Man. I'm sure I may get killed for saying that but its my blog and I speak my mind ha ha. Regaurdless he looks freaking awesome. This shot was taken after his last Indiana State competition where he was 215 pds. Matt was telling me how in this picture he was remembers specifically thinking "bring on the food" LOL
Amen to that as I know many of us make a stright bee-line to the nearest restaurant after the show lol.
Here's another show shot from another show and another one with him and Pro Mike Quinn. Check out Matts color pants lol. It don't get any better than that.


 Now besides Kevin Leverone and Frank Zane (who has a band and plays harmonica). How many other bodybuilders have thier own band and get down playing around town ets. Matt has his own band called the Bar Benders. Speaking of the Bar Benders they will be playing Tuesday night at the Bears Place (DA BEARS DA BEARS DA BEARS...sorry I couldn't resist *smile)
Going back to what I was saying before I changed the subject the Bar Benders will be playing at the
Bear's Place
1316 East 3rd Street
Bloomington, IN
Tuesday, March 29th at 8:30 pm

it takes strength

Don't ask me when I took this as I can't remember lol. I'm serious. It brings back great memories and it pumps me up for the summer :) woohoo. I got some more pictures to share :), but will do that here in a sec. I started my morning by watching the black and white movie "the three musketeers", I've never seen it till now. I like it :) and yes I'm cheesy like that. Big weekend ahead of me. Between my physical assement and then our new show this weekend its jam packed. Its possible the assement may go longer than expectant too so that may be a factor. This training for me has only been the tip of the iceberg with training. Your not going to learn everything in school as its more learning on the field. My EMT training has just begun, and then the Medic training in the Fall..that is tough. Your looking at another year of training. You always here the controversy over paramedics and nurses lol.  I rode in the ambulance yesterday for my clinical which started at 8am and I stayed till 7 pm as we had patient that had to be transported to Wishard Memorial in Indianapolis as it was a MVA. It was lights and siren from Bloomington to Indy. I am amazed at how many people try to out run the ambulance or pay them no mind on the roads.  I can't even imagine how I would be driving the ambulance going down the roads with these drivers. One of the cool features on the new ambulances is the privacy window. Its a screen that pops up over your windows in the back so it blocks people from seeing in. It was another long day, but I loved every part of it. Bloomington is the first in the nation to have blue fire trucks. Powder blue I think is the color




Do you think the Holiday Razzle is me. There was a glitter magazine from the 80s i saw in the gym while I was doing cardio. Pretty cool :) as you know I LOVE the 80s.

Its funny in class or around restaurants how people talk and say or assume things. I should start my own type of national enquier. Think of it like grandma with her loud and clear "as seen on tv device"(used to hear other peoples conversations) Check out the commercial.

Anyway grandma or whoever trying to find the latest scoop just so they  have something to say LOL

As a treat meal for myself I took myself out last night solo to the restaurant Sushi bar. Awesome place for great sushi. Tell them the EMT bodybuilder tha ate up all thier sushi sent you



Well its a busy day tomorrow as I mentioned above and we have our newest show in South Bend. I'm very curious to see how that goes. We have Indiana state reps coming in for the testing on the physical assessments. The hardest out of the 7 test is trauma and medical. *whew then after that we are free lol but there's a chance it could go longer as I mentioned earlier. That could change my plans. As far as the show I am pulling for Jorge as I said in a previous blog he reminds me of someone I know with a great set of genetics and a beautiful body at such a young age. Lucky guys. Seriously not a lot of young people can pull that off but it takes so much doscipline and dedication on top of that. I know Jorge will kick ass. Can't wait for that. Best of luck to everyone

Are you still wondering about me lol. I've got the blog ready or at least I think I do ;) All week I have had brain flatuence lol. Bear with me bloggers.
