I would love this opertunity. I am a Drill Sergeant in the US Army and I often work from 0400 in the morning to 2230 at night. It leave very little time for training.

[Greater Deity]

I would like a chance too. I work in Telecommunications and Networking at Stephen F. Austin State University, as a student and a Network Security Specialist. Somehow, I manage to keep fit, sitting in my office for 6 hours a day. I suppose the whey really does help... or I don't remember now.

I'm rambling; I'll STFU. Thanks! Will edit this and post pictures later.

i'm interested. i'm a full time grad student studying for my doctorate in physical therapy, mba, cscs, and a few other things, while working a part-time 20 hr a week job. my interest in lifting began during my recovery from a traumatic brain injury.

Hi-
Work 60+ hours a week, as a high school math teacher and head of my high school's math department.
I do compete in fitness, but this is just a hobby, and have a bit of fun to get out my small town and travel a bit.
Had a baby back in May of 2006, and put on 50lbs in the process. Managed to get most of it off, and compete again 6 months later.
I do all my own training, diet, choreoography, and music. I used to do my own costumes and sewing as well, but since the little guy I now purchase my suits and costumes.
BB.com has been a source of info, when I needed guidance in my training/diet. I refer many of my friends to BB.com as there is just so much info! I love the contest coverage you have, especially now that you have added video. As a teacher, I am limited to travelling only certain times of the year, and love that you show the olympia, arnold and various other pro shows that I might not get to see.

Here are some pics:

Each morning, I wake, prepare my meals, pack my cooler, fill my water jug, and head to the station. I'm a City Transit Bus Driver! I complete my 9 hr shift, eat my meals on the bus, take my pee breaks at Tim Hortons (if time allows) and while dieting and water loading it becomes a test of strengt of character and will. After work, I go straight to gym for my workout... it's all in a days work!! It all must be done!

BB.com is the only industry website I visit. It's the number 1 source of information and shopping on the internet.

Hi I am a full time database manager. However, I am a certified personal trainer as well, but I'm only able to work with 2 individuals. I would love to quit my day job and focus soley on fitness industry and work full time in a gym, but I have not as of yet, made it to that point. Aside from being a database manager, I am a professional natural figure competitor.

My days are pretty routine and gets more challenging when preparing for a contest..but here's a typical run down:
Fix breakfast
Eat
Shower
Get dressed for work
Work for 8 hours
Weight training
Meet my clients (2 days a week)
Drive home
Wash containers
Get food ready for next day
Pack gym bag
Shower
Eat last meal
Go to bed

Press stop: rewind: play..................

I must say bodybuilding.com has offered a wealth of information. It has truely been like wal-mart; a one stop shop. The articles are wonderful and very informative. It certaintly provided me a starting point when I decided to compete. The one site that was easy to navigate and has an array of topics including a very impressive forum.

I am a loyal customer and appreciate bodybuilding.com for offering such great material as well as superior customer service.

I feel so proud to wear the bodybuilding.com t-shirts and when discussing suppliments to others, I promote your site and have lead several people to the site for the articles and for ordering suppliments at the best rates ever!

I would love to be a part of bodybuilding.com. Even if not, it has been a pleasure for me to extend my gratitude for offering such a great site and contest. I wish everyone who is partaking in this venture the best.

Kind regards and best wishes for the new year!

Can I just ad my 2 cents here to those posting as to what I think BB are REALLY looking for?


1 - Any good looking model type male/female (You need that men?s fitness/ladies model face)

2 Someone who has not preferably competed for a show but has the potential to do so (Not heavy weight though)

3 A mature looking male. You can be young but you better have that chiselled mature/cute looking face. Think Brad Pitt in his mids 20's to late 30's

4 An attractive lady who is not too shredding but has a very toned body. 2 - 4 pack welcome. Oh a killer smile would go down well

[musclefyr]

Thanks for offering such a great opportunity to all the "folks" in the BB.com community.
I'm a full-time firefighter/paramedic in Las Vegas. I have worked for Clark County FD for almost 16 yrs now. I am a single mother of two, and a grandmother. I train to stay in shape and strong for my job, and I also compete.
I have utilized BB.com for many years to purchase my supplements online. I am a member of BodySpace and really enjoy the interaction with everyone on the site. I stay motivated and excited about my sport by communicating with others on the site, and by reading the articles you offer.

Thanks for your time,

i'm interested, definately. I joined bb.com in 2005 when i started lifting as a means to overcome an eating disorder. When I started, i was 97 lbs. I'm now at 126 with approx. 16% bf. I work full-time, go to school full-time, and still manage to make room for sleeping, working out, studying, and spending time with my family and fiance. I'm a very down-to-earth, realistic, disciplined and motivated individual and I'd love to represent Bodybuilding.com, a company that has yet to let me down.

[Mike Duffy]

Def interested here, have been a flooring installer( install carpet, hardwood, vinyl, ceramic) for the last 20 yrs working six days a week. And as if that doesn't keep me busy enough I have four children and still train 4-5 days a week. Training increases when I am in contest prep mode.

[add46.88]

I would be interested. I'm hoping to compete bb next year and also do fitness modelling.Wow looks like this is very popular with so many possible candidates ...oh well if you don't enter I'll never have a chance

Let me start by saying I used to do track field during my junior years and was pretty successful and travelled all around Europe competing for my country. It wasn't until last year when my running career came to a halt. I unfortunately picked up a persistent groin injury which forced me to stop.

After that my life just became normal. I learned a carpentry trade and worked with my dad most days. I started to miss being competitive and needed something in my life to aim for. My best friend was always into bodybuilding and he decided to purchase gym equipment for his garage. He has always encouraged me to get into bodybuilding and now that my running was finished I had no excuses.

As I got more involved in the bodybuilding world I then stumbled across this great website.I educated myself on all the nutrition side of things. Now I have my own bodyspace page so I can let others know how I'm progressing which certainly keeps me motivated. The support from other members on here is overwhelming and any positive comment gives you that much needed confidence boost.

Currently I'm very happy with my progress and packing on muscle and size fast! I have plans to do my first bb comp early spring. But recently I have been contacted by many fitness modelling agencies who would like to work with me. So 2008 could be a very exciting year for me

[spirit3530]

You know some off the best people to be in these ads would be bb.com forum members that have had a journal on here that have made a transformation over the years. I just remember when i was lurking in 04 and some of the guys i saw then inspired me. Hell i know i`m not the biggest or baddest on this site but the knowledge i have learned by being exposed to bb.com has shaped my physique to where it is now. I even got the confidence to compete last october and won my novice class. I plan to compete and win Nga Mr UTAH. My small gains each month inspired my co workers (Air Force, hooah) to clean up their act and get in shape. One person qualifed and competed in the Air Force Marathon after training 8 months with me. Another is competing in a bodybuilding show. Many others have lost weight or just adopted better eating habits. All of us are a testament to the exposure of information discussed here and i am glad i had the opportunity to say all of this.

Thanks
Sage

[tclary]

I don't know if this is still an open opportunity but if so count me in for consideration.

[jpula]

I'd definitely be interested. I'm currently a student at the University of North Dakota with a major in Mechanical Engineering. Sometime in the coming weeks I'll be the transformation of the week, and I feel that bodybuilding.com helped me see this happen.

[sgttuff13]

I would definitely be intersested. I think it would be a grewat way to keep my self motivated and pushing torwards my goals. I might not have a huge build like others but I do have the drive and dedication needed tomake it.

[Acman23]

Amazing Opportunity!

I am a full time Graduate Student working on my masters degree in Organizational Leadership, while working full-time as an Assistant Manager at Under Armour retail store, to pay my way through school. My days are pretty busy between working, classes and school work, but I make as much time as I can to train at least 5 days.

I began weight training in 2003 in order to gain weight for the college wrestling team. I only weighed 110lbs and I am 5'3 and I needed to gain weight to be able wrestle at the 125lb weight class. It was bad enough I was the shorter guy but being only 110lbs was not something that was helping me out.

As I researched and got help from sources such as bodybuilding.com, I was able to gain the weight I needed and decided to take my love of weight training to the bodybuilding stage instead of returning to the wrestling mat.

I have been competing for a little over two years and have been very sucessful. I became a Natural Professional in my 2nd year of competing.

I want to thank bodybuilding.com for helping me achieve my goals and get to where I am now! I would appreciate this opportunity.

[dgb11003]

This sounds like a great opportunity:

I am an average 23 year old who after breaking up with my gf, decided I needed to get back in shape. I work at an Advertising Firm in Manhattan and live in my own apartment in Queens. I have never done any competitions nor do I feel I want too...my drive is just getting the best potential out of myself that I can as a normal person....self satisfaction is my only goal.

And here's a relaxed pic of me just playing some beer pong with some friends:
