The 20th Anniversary of the Arnold Classic is this weekend! (If you haven’t gotten your tickets yet, you’re out of luck.) This is, by far, the biggest sporting expo and sports competition event of the year.

The Arnold weekend has become an event for the entire family. Over the course of 20 years it has grown to host a variety of competitions from bodybuilding, boxing, fencing, 5K race, gymnastics, and much, much more.

With so many athletes under one roof, it’s hard not to be motivated in whatever sport or recreational activity you do. Looking at the Arnold Expo website, I came across this inspiring story from Briana Tindall, a Pro Figure athlete competing this weekend and I wanted to share:

We had an exciting weekend in Cleveland, Ohio at the 2007 NPC Natural Northern USA Drug Tested Bodybuilding & Figure Championships. What an incredible competition and exhibition the promotors, Dave Liberman and Todd Pember put on. As a Presenting Sponsor for the exhibit, we never felt more welcomed or appreciated. Fantastic job guys!
The Championships brought in over 130 competitors! A great show enter or visit if your just getting started and if you’re looking for the best new talent.

Fitness Legend, Beth Horn , jumped on the competition stage for the first time in four years earlier this month. The noise from the audience, which included myself, showed the support and admiration we all have for this stunning athlete.

The 2007 Olympia weekend in Vegas is only a few weeks away. The Pro competitors and the die hard bodybuilding and fitness enthusiast have been counting down for this weekend since last years’ competition. This is the Super Bowl of bodybuilding and fitness. With that said, we at MyBodyBeats.com are proud to say that 10 of our featured athletes…that means 10 of YOUR personal trainers are competitors in this year’s Olympia. Tell your friends….

Congratulations to MyBodyBeats.com trainer, Valerie Waugaman, who took home 1st place at this weekend’s 2007 Houston Pro Figure competition. Val was in amazing condition and in my opinion, looked more beautiful than ever. But I’ll let you be the judge. Check out this photo of her from the competition, striking one of her signature poses.

Her confidence and stage presence demands attention over anyone who competes next to her. Many of the message boards in the fitness community are stating that she will be very tough to beat at the Olympia coming up.
