How to get Sponsored?

[mrjabruce]

Hello everyone! Like many of you I have been exercising, dieting, and the whole enchilada! A big congratulations to everyone who is reaching their goals. I have reached many of my goals, but some I am still working towards. Hence the title of this thread.

I wonder where do I get started? Who here is sponsored and wouldn't mind adding a few pearls of wisdom? Some specific questions I am wondering about (and are they even pertinent to getting a sponsorship) are:

-What body fat percentage should I aim for?
-What companies are looking to sponsor people?
-Can I make it in this industry given my weight, muscularity, etc.

Any help in the right direction would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

P.S. I am looking to get sponsored by a supplement company, but I am not averse to getting sponsored by a clothing line or other similar markets.

I suggest you juice a little and then apply for a sponsorship at a supp company saying you are natty. Then proceed to use their products and tell people that you are jacked because of said companies products.

free supps=profit

you're a software engineer and yet dumb enough to think that a company is going to sponsor a guy who weighs 150lbs with 13 inch arms. this does not compute.

sorry for using the term dumb, i just couldnt think of a substitute that was less grating and still got my point across.

I didn't take any offense at all . You are right, while I may not be good enough to get sponsored today, I would like to be eventually. That is what this thread is all about, how to go from where I am now, to a place where it would be much easier to get sponsored (I hope that makes sense). Also, I believe if people who are sponsored help and give their opinions, this post could help others who want to get sponsored also.

Oh, and if this isn't the best place to post this question, where should I post it?
