Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic

Hi all! I attended the Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic this weekend & WOW! Talk about motivating. It was just the nudge I needed to fully embrace this weight loss/fitness thing that I have been struggling with my whole adult life! That's how I came across My Fitness Pal. I was just curious if anyone else has ever attended?

Oh it was so eye opening! It's a fitness convention in Columbus, O. that is held every March. They have competitions in every area you can think of...karate, fencing, hockey, body building, track & field, weight lifting, dancing, etc. We were surrounded by healthy, motivated people. At first I felt a bit intimidated but it didnt take long & I thinking to myself...I want this:)

I was there on Saturday! I just watched the CrossFit competitions in one of the ballrooms. We tried to walk around the massive vendor room where companies were giving away tons of protein products for free if you were willing to wait in mile-long lines. I'm not good with crowds and wasn't willing to go through all of that for a week's worth of protein supplements. There were so many people and, yes, it was very interesting!
