This sounds so cool, hopefully some year I’ll be able to make it…

I’m really looking forward to the articles on the parts of the competition, especially if there will be some info on the fitness competitors!

there were some amazing performances at the event, especially from our guys at California Strength Academy! Caleb Ward and Jon North both made lifts to qualify for the 2010 Pan Am Games and now we have 3 guys on the USA weightlifting team. needless to say it was a great event for us, haha

thanks for the intro Pete, haha.

it really is a life changing experience if you ever get the opportunity to compete. hitting those lifts was one of my greatest accomplishments and i’d have to say that might’ve been the best day of my life. i’m really looking forward to representing the US at the Pan Am games in Guatemala in May, so hopefully you will all be following and rooting for us here at home.

I heard that it was the best day of your life because you got to meet Johnie Jackson though!

good article, thanks!

I’m glad everyone enjoyed the article. If you want to go next year, save my e-mail address and hit me up leading up to the Expo. I am quite involved in running the weightlifting portion, but if you have questions about any part of the Expo, just let me know. I’ll be more than happy to help out.

I need to make it out there for the next one. i would like to se how crazy it is. Is it worth goign to? I think that it would be a good experience especially since I find interest in the sport.

I think it’s definitely worth going to, especially if you’re interested in bodybuilding. All of the sports there are really impressive, but the Arnold truly is the holy grail of bodybuilding experiences. If you’re looking for ways to cut the bill for the weekend, look for flights early, and fly on a Wednesday, if possible. I know some people found flights for well under $200 and split the hotel room. It doesn’t need to be very expensive if you plan ahead for it.
