Crushing it with 3 Natural Pros!

Crushing it with 3 Natural Pros!  Paul Tomko, Luke Ehlis and Scott Kluth

Tara and I just got back from a quick trip to Seattle, where we hit the town and enjoy some great food from Whole Foods.  I probably enjoyed that a little too much, but oh well.  I made up for it on Saturday.  I was able to meet up with NGA Pro Paul Tomko and WNBF Pro Scott Kluth to watch the prejudging of the 2011 NPC Iron Mountain, then headed into Golds to train some arms.  It was technically an off day for me, but I ended up following along and putting in some work.  This by far is one of the best parts of the sport, just hanging out with some friends and killing some weight.  Here are a few highlights from Saturday.

Today I went in for some legs and had a great one.  Here's how it went.....

*Warm-ups excluded

Front Squats (with Bands)- 3x12@315 / 2x8@385
Narrow Leg press- 1x25 / 2x30
Step-ups- 3x8
Leg extensions- 2x10 / 1x10*6*8

The 2011 NANBF Washington State Natural Weekend

Breaking in the downtown Seattle Golds

This weekend Ty and I made a quick trip over to watch the 2011 NANBF Washington State Natural held at the Moore theater in downtown Seattle.  The show was awesome and is growing bigger and bigger every year.  This year had some amazing physiques and we left more inspired than ever!  Congrats to everyone who competed and to Kevin and Denise James for running another excellent show!  I already can't wait for next year!

After the morning show Ty and I were able to meet up with WNBF Pro Scott Kluth, NGA Pro Paul Tomko, Natural Competitor Tony Quincy, NPC Natural Champion Ken Ralston and Washington State Deadlift record holding powerlifter Caleb Ralston for an EPIC Back workout.   We strolled through downtown Seattle and broke in the Golds Gym.  This is why I love this sport and here's how it went down.....



I had a blast getting to know everyone a little better and I can't wait to do it again!!!
