2009 IFBB NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIPS

[MuSuLPhReAk]

Good work 69C. Looking foward to the complete results tonight and the pics. I'm just really starting to get interested in the competition world and who is who. Seems the standard bodybuilder in Canada doesn't really know much about the competitors unless they are a competitor themselves. And even then it may not guarantee that they know eachother or about eachother.

Hopefully, as a community, with everyone pitching in a little, we can start changing that and bring these competitors some recognition in their own country and not needing to go to the US for it.

totally agree!!
I think the internet is helping to form a "community" of BB (fit/fig)
It's funny that I find at Novice cheering for girls from my gym... Provincials still girls from my gym (because almost all of us made it to Provincials HAHA!!!) at Nationals cheering for people from my province OR people I have made freinds with on the internet, and at an international level, any Canadian!!!

(and once again I would like to express how SHITTY it is that canada is so cheap with the procards that our amazing Canadain athletes are forced to go abroad to compete... where (at least in womens bodybuilding) they DOMINATE the sport)

Agree 1000%! Incomprehensible that Ron is not already a pro. He presents better development than some of the athletes I've seen in pro shows.

I went through the class pictures and Ron e should have been in the top 5 at least from what I saw. Given all the problems he had getting there, he competed admirably.

This is one of the deepest North Americans I've seen. And the women BBs and figure competitors were astounding on the whole. Props all around.
