LTrain Brown is newest member of M2 Pro list....




Recently, top IFBB Pro Lionel Brown contracted the M2 team to help dial in his conditioning for the Feb 08 Iron man Pro competition in Pasadena, California.

The journey Lionel has traveled on has been over 2 decades of training and competition. With the dream of being an IFBB pro athlete coming to fruition at the 06 Nationals. The quest that starts with local city, state, then national level competition becomes complete when you finally reach world level. Today in the men's pro level competition circuit there are 100 top men in the world. To be there is a difficult achievement and very coveted to the few that make it.

Now...once you become a pro, there are junior and senior level pro shows. At each show a winner is selected from the top 15. As many as 30-40 men may qualify for each level, but only 1 will win this level show with a top prize of cash and points toward their standing within the IFBB. Once the athlete has competed and won a qualifying birth, he may compete at a senior level show.

The senior shows, The Arnold Classic and The Olympia are where the cream of the crop athlete's show up after qualifying in prior junior competitions. Prizes are substantial and the endorsement opportunities become the real prize. Top IFBB athletes will command 5-10k for guest appearances, up 250k for big sponsor endorsements and of course the marketing of their services in Hollywood.



So far Lionel has done very well and is among the strongest rising stars with a top 15 finish at the Atlantic Pro show this past August. What needs to happen at this stage is to present an outstanding package, "dry and ripped to shred's"! What does that mean? 2% body fat, extremly lean so that the skin around the low back, glutes and hamstrings appear paper thin.

We'll keep you posted in the coming weeks...

Mr. Fat off your back side!
