Just One more Comp

By Maria Dunlop

The End of the Competitive Year but one more competition to attend and support and keep Bodybuilding alive and kicking in Taranaki.

Mike and Nina's INBA Taranaki Competition was held on Saturday the 7th November.

This was a One Show Format kick starting on time at 5.30pm.

It was really enjoyable to go on for Compulsories and then straight back out for Routines and then Prize Giving. The Audience also enjoyed this format better and really showed their appreciation for the atheletes by lots of yelling, clapping, shouting etc.

The competitors back stage were having a lovely time, very friendly, and we all agreed that the audience was amazing, what a lot of noise they made, it was so energizing and made everyone buzz.

There was between 25-30 competitors  I think. The Ladies out numbered the Men and the standard of physique on stage was brilliant.

International figure competitors to National Title Holders.

 Team Taranaki was Represented by The Gorgeous Farah Deobhakta who won Senior figure and Overall, Paul Adams who won Masters Men, Trisha Legg who placed 2nd to Farah in Senior Figure and myself who placed 2nd next to the amazing International Figure competitor Janine Haywood.

Another Amazing Team Taranaki Member Karl Cook was the Guest Poser. The Audience really appreciated his "All Natural Body", and yet again he did us Proud.

Another Physique that blew everyone away in the Audience was Aaron Noble. Aaron's posing and presentation was faultless. 

The Venue was Terrific, The Old Kings Theatre on Broadway. The Stage is not raised so you are looking out at the same level as the judges and then the audience fans up from there, An original old picture theatre. The sound system was excellent and the competitors music just filled the threatre and added to the energy.

 A great way to end  2009, Im so glad I made the effort to compete in this Show. I hope, along with all the other competitors, that this show will become an Annual Event.  

So a big Congratulations to Mike and Nina Ryan for running it. Well Done.

And Welcome to your very handsome new little son Sean.
