Story & Photographs Courtesy Of Rob Rosetti (Fit Girl Magazine)
The first weekend in May is always special to NPC Athletes. The NPC elite flock to the city of Pittsburgh to compete in President Jim Manion's NPC Pittsburgh Championships. It truly is a show where future champions are made. In 2009 in the inaugural Bikini event, Jaime Baird took the title and Andria Watson captured the Figure Division & Elizabeth Earhart won the Masters Figure title, Last year, two unknowns, Vanessa Campbell (Bikini) & Kristen Nagrani (Figure) took the titles. In 2011, someone will seize the opportunity and own the day.

London England: The Journey to the British Grand Prix with Extreme Nutrition: Part 1
Better late than never? Please forgive me on the tardiness of the article. I've had a very hectic travel schedule lately and between bookings, I've gotten right back on a plane to visit my mom who has cancer, so I haven't had much down time lately.
Great Britain has castles; red double decker buses, the Queen and Led Zepplin...but they don't have The Arnold Fitness Expo...until now.
Sort of.
A couple of bodybuilders decided to promote their version and called it the British Grand Prix this year. I was invited over by my old Scottish friends Doug & Jo who own Extreme Nutrition.
