Here are some pics my friends took from the Battle of Blacksburg on the 29th... limited... but enough to give ya an idea of how competitive the show was... click browse albums at the bottom left to check out the different classes and categories (ps. definitely not professional shots)
Battle of Blacksburg

J thanks for the pics - I was in the front row watching this show. I have to say it was one of the most competitive shows I've seen - congratulations I thought you looked great, lean, lean, lean you are!

Full contest results should be up by the end of today:

OCB Battle of Blacksburg

I had the pleasure of being one of the judges at this show. Jason did a great job! His conditioning was outstanding, he looked better on stage than in these pictures, and as you can tell he looks pretty darn good in the pictures.

He has one of those physiques that really jumps to life when he flexs a muscle group and he did a good job with posing. His two first place wins in the Novice and Open lightweight classes were well deserved.

I think that this was only his second show! Keep up the good work J.

I get the feeling that Aram was behind the scenes helping this young man make the most of his efforts!

Thanks again MadDog... and yeah you're definitely right about Aram... his advice definitely got me going in the right direction... i wouldnt have come in nearly as well as i did without it!!
