Just 23 years old, Aaron Hall has already achieved a classic physique shape. He last competed at '10 MM America but lost the Junior Division because his condition was off. Now the 5'9", 210 lbs. personal trainer hopes to bring a winning package to MM Universe in Miami.

At 6'8", 260 lbs., former Colorado basketball player and WWE wrestler Aaron Reed captures everyone attention wherever he goes. The Florida personal trainer has expanded his domain into publishing with his new e-book, "A Super Natural Lifestyle - Manipulating Foods for an Unfair Advantage."  Since leaving professional wrestling, Aaron has been pounding weights and has competed in a few bodybuilding competitions and is now training for MM Universe in Miami. He says, "I love getting pumped! It is the best feeling in the world. It gets me high. I get so use to feeling it all the time when I miss a day of training I feel like I am missing something. I know that when I get pumped it is at that time I am able to shape my body like a sculpture or and artist. My physique is my life's work. I think about it all the time." "I stand over six and half feet tall and I feel I am able to exhibit how great a man of large stature can look from an aesthetic perspective. Working so hard to be my best I have realized there is nothing more aesthetically pleasing than the NATURAL body and all of its grace when it’s in top physical shape." More news about Aaron as he trains for the MM Universe including his training and nutrition regimen. In meantime, check out his e-book on-line.

US Military Academy Cadet Luke Pittman is competition dieting for the first time. The 22 year old West Point senior will be on the Musclemania® New England stage at Foxwoods Resort Casino. Luke has a rich athletic background in track & field but was always a recreational bodybuilder. His father competed in the Teenage Mr. America in the 1960's and encouraged his son to weight train. At 5'9", 185 lbs., Luke trains through the stress of his West Point education and military rigors. He explains, "While being so stressed and challenged (often times sleeping less than 4 hours a night due to mandatory requirements of the academy), I still treat my body right and train like crazy." Luke will attend medical school upon graduation and eventual a US Army physician. You can watch Luke and all of the Musclemania competitors LIVE at www.musclemania.tv on April 28.

Training for his very first competition, Slovenia Ben Radic says he's learning how to adjust his diet. "My weight is around 106 kg. (233 lbs.) around 6-8% body fat. But, I think is just a lot of water," he says. "I'm not salting my food and I'm cycling with carbs that contains potassium." At 5'10", Ben has always been  an athlete including competitive judo, volleyball and tennis. So, discipline will not be a problem as he prepares for MM Europe in October.

Another message from MM Pro Gerald Pangan just in from his training grounds in Kuwait. The 5'4", '09 MM World Champion is shown here with training partner Rodel Sauza measuring his body fat at 6.3% at 90 kgs.!

MM Pro Gerald Pangan shook up the natural bodybuilding scene by winning the '09 MM World Championships. Then, last year he narrowly lost the MM Universe Pro LW Class to Dewayne Malone. Since then, Gerald has been pounding the weights and is preparing for a rematch at the Miami show in June. He just sent this update:

"Here I am training in the best gym in Kuwait "Oxygen Fitness Center". With all the machines they have here, I can maximize my gains and total development. Really, the equipment is like at no other gym around the world where I have traveled, even in the US. Definitely, there's enough weights for me to train for the Universe and bring home the Lightweight title as MM Pro."

Mixing a unique blend of beauty and muscularity, Jenny Gaidoukevitch brings a special class of ladies on the Musclemania® stage. The Belarus native is always a Top 5 Finalist. Jenny started to train in 1998 with a motivation that stemmed from a personal dissatisfaction with her looks. "I used to be  really fat," she explains. "I had two children and did not having exercised at all. My lifestyle was sedentary - working as a software engineer and playing piano as a hobby. Then, at age 29, I turned to weight training and lost more than 20 kg. (44 lbs.). I went to the best trainers and sport clubs in Holland to learn as much as possible about training, fitness, fighting and bodybuilding. And I completed my certification as a personal trainer. Then I opened my own sport club - www.sunnysport.nl. Late in 2007, I began competing, appearing in more then 15 bodybuilding and figure shows in the last couple of years." "Now I am doing a lot of weight training and I train many other people from professional athletes to businessmen and house wives, helping them to achieve their goals from improving competition results, to just getting fit and figure correction. I also train at Amsterdam's best kickboxing school, Vos Gym. It's very handy to be strong if you like fighting! :) In general, a strong body gives you a strong mind - handy for whatever you do in life!" Currently, Jenny is training for MM Universe in Miami and MM Europe in Paris.
