Just thought I'd throw it out there, I have no idea how many people actually work out in Wisconsin so I thought I'd include Illinois too! Get it goin people.

If you are an active competitive bodybuilder male or female or female fitness or figure competitor can you pleassssssssseeeeeeeee put down your basic contact info such as what city your from, the gym you train at, the org you compete in and the division you compete in as well.

A couple close friends of mine and I are looking to start a formal WI only network/informative database for WI physique athletes. It all starts with you the WI members!

I am in Love's Park, not far from the Illinois-Wisconsin border. Intending to do my first show after the summer. My consultant has advised me to do the show in Madison, but I have other views on the matter.

Hey Josh, I have always been interested in competing although I never have, if possible I'd like to keep in touch with you as I do research as to what types of competitions are available for the area and where/when they are since I'm new to the scene. I live in Milwaukee, WI, I attend Marquette University so I train at the Rec Center here on campus.

I am stuck in the center of all the good restaurants then on top of that I work downtown where there are a ton more! Oh well... luckily I am able to skip right past them most of the time. How many people signed up for your group? Sadly, I do not fit into any of your categories.

And the group continues to grow in numbers........

This is awsome, seeing all these local or at least regional fitness/bodybuilder subculture people come out to be herd on this thread, good to know I am not alone in my pursuits!

Nice to meet you all!

**VolumeFreak** · 03-11-2009, 04:13 PM

Kaukauna Wisconsin. near appleton

**boostthis89** · 03-12-2009, 11:18 AM

I am located in Marshfield, WI..
I compete in alot of the Wisconsins Best Bench competitions that travel around the state, as well as alot of other unsanctioned events..

**oregonpanthers** · 03-13-2009, 06:58 AM

Call me crazy but this is just my nature with people.....

What would you guys and gals think about doing some kind if informal BB.COM get-together in early summer like late May? Perhaps in Milwaukee or Madison, some big city relatively close to everyone in the state? We could all hit up a gym in the area and have a kick ass workout then go out after for a early dinner at a steakhouse or something similar?

The only way we are going to foster and bolster our subculture so that it becomes more mainstream is to be seen, be involved and do this kind of stuff together. More so within our own state since we have that proximity with one another at the least.

What we all say to that?

I am all for it! I'm here in Milwaukee at Marquette University and there are tons of areas around the city we could get together at! There are several gyms and fitness clubs and we could possibly look at having some sort of cookout on the lake or something. I like the enthusiasm about the group though and keep up the hard work everyone!

**oregonpanthers** · 03-14-2009, 08:21 AM

Then the first thing is a time frame and location. I vote Milwaukee, the first weekend of May which is the 1st-3rd. Its before exams and graduations take place so that wont get in the way. We can choose a gym and food place later. Who is in on this? Lets put a deadline out by April 11th so we can plan ahead.
