hey i am from edmonton happy new year. Looks like we are the only two from Edmonton as far as i have seen so far.
Peace

I'm in Calgary. Are you competing?

[sassi101]

I was working towards it this year. BUT ... I was recently in a car accident. T-boned by a yukon while in a sunfire. I am 5'9" and about 15% body fat. I am in "active" physio. though and they said next year for sure. Trying to be positive here...
Competing costs so much. Have you competed??? if so, how did you get the funds/sponsors?

I want to compete in physique/fitness ... so the dance and choregraphy play a big part ... :)

I'm going for the women's bodybuilding in the SOuthern AB one this June. It is my first competition so I'm not really sure how everything will work out. Yeah it is very expensive, but I'm working with Brian & Donna Logue so hopefully they can tell me what I need to do.

Have you competed before? ****ty about the car accident. I was rear-ended about 4 months ago but it wasn't as bad as the first 3 accidents haha. (all not my fault, for the record). Take it easy & don't rush into anything.

I'm totally not a fitness person so I think I'll stick to figure after this one.

I'm from Saint John, New Brunswick. My girlfriend is moving out to Edmonton next week. Does anybody know the employment situation in the gyms out in Edmonton. I'm a natural bodybuilder looking for employment. I have looked into going to NAIT for the Personal Fitness Trainer program. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Ripped at 176 lbs. (last summer)
Off season weight 204 lbs. (now)

[Slider59]

I'm from Edmonton as well.
Really old thread, so might not be anybody around.

[NatPaq]

I'm in Edmonton too :) I just finished my last class for my personal training certification through canfit pro. I'm also looking to compete next fall and I'm looking for info on trainers.

[Kevan]

nice to meet everyone, if you need info on personal trainers, I have a friend that competed and took the alberta title in her weight catagory, also finished 3rd in nationals.

[Fukes12]

Im not officially an Edmontonian, but i may as well be, so ill tag onto this thread. Nice to meet everyone.

Kevan, im curious about the personal trainer you know, it sounds like it could be the same person that i use as a personal trainer.

Hey guys haven't seen this thread before, Nice to see more e-town folks around.. Don't know if anyone still checks this one but feel free to PM me.

[CJWells]

im from Calgary, but I can respond to the cost to compete. Really it all depends on quantity of food on the diet, length of diet, coaching (if have one) costs, if your gonna be taking any "assistance", quality and "bling" on your posing suits, showtime esthetics (dream tan, protan, muscle sheen etc) as well any additionals (tanning, hair removal, make up, hair etc..).

For the abba your looking at $50.00 for membership dues as well as $75.00 (or $100.00 for late entry) on contest entry fees.

Hope this helps :)

[norinicole]

Wow. Strong thread revival.

I'm from E-town as well.

Nat-Paq...are you competing in the Fall Classic? Maybe I'll see you on stage! :)
