John is a WNBF Professional bodybuilder himself, frequently asked to head judge domestic and international competitions, and host of the popular annual Northwest Royal Natural competition (of which my brother Beau and I both competed in personally back in 2019!) – also John is very well known and experienced in coaching the BIKINI category. When Jairo Chang and I were speaking last week, he recommended John for his DIVERSE EXPERIENCE having judged various tested and untested organizations.
JOHN’S UPCOMING SHOW:
September 2024

Opportunity for natural PRO CARD
About 6-8 weeks after THE OPEN NATURAL I am co-hosting with Jairo which could serve as a “warm-up” in a less-competitive environment looking into possibly kicking it into high gear to come in TOP SHAPE for John’s show 🙂
