2011 Arnold Amateur Canadian Athletes - The Men

With just a few days out from the Arnold Sports Festival, it would be a good time to do a quick presentation of the amateur competitors who are trying to get a pro card.

We'll start off with Zaid Adamo of Grand Falls, Windsor. He competed in the 2010 CBBF Canadian National Bodybuilding Championships and came in 1st. Before that he competed in the 2009 NLABBA Provincial Bodybuilding & Figure Championships which he also placed 1st and came away with the overall title.

Next we move into the Welterweight division where Jamie Bonaccorso will attempt to take the 1st spot. He dominated the Ontario Physique Association Welterweight Division when he first started off and is now coming in the top 5 at National level shows whether in Canada or the US. Expect to see him place well.

There are no more male competitors from Canada until we get to the Super Heavyweight division. Here we have a popular Antoine Vaillant sponsored by Universal Nutrition who hopes to get that pro card that many believe he has the potential for. But this is a deep division with tough competition. A good luck goes out to Antoine as he will need to be perfect that day to have a chance to walk away with the win.

In the Classical Bodybuilding division, we have Mark Anthony Wingson from Oakville, ON that will be representing Canada. Expect lean defined muscles in this division and Mark should place high as he's always in good condition.
