Proud of the Boys

619 Muscle is all about reaching deep down inside, and pulling out all the stops, bringing forth the Superhero inside yourself, and letting him or her shine. That's what I believe is the most powerful part of the sport we live and breath. Here are a few videos of my "guys"
- Tomas Navarro, Arizona's Strongest Man, 2010, is shown here, deadlifting the 619 MUSCLE car - over 700lbs at the wheels, according to his trainer, coach and mentor, Donnie Rhodes of SoCal Strength;


And "Superman Mike" Nguyen, shown here, drilling on the art of posing, presenting the physique optimally for the judges, as he prepared for the 2009 NPC Border States - (Mike won his weight class in Novice, and took 2nd in the unlimited lightweights, losing a close battle to Eric Raposa, another 619 Muscle family member)


Both of these young athletes work super hard, pushing their bodies and challenging themselves to be better than they were the previous day. That's the essence of unleashing your own superhero, the essence of Hardcore, and the essence of 619 Muscle...

Go get 'em boys...I always want to remind these young guys that you never know who you touch with your energy, love and passion...Be a hero, inspire others - give, and the energy comes back around...

In Strength,

Pete C
