A bodybuilder may say: "Arnold"

 

A figure girl may say: "Monica Brant" 

 

A fitness model may say: "Lindsay Messina" 

 

But what is it that makes you think of certain fitness 

people? Is it that they have been on covers of magazines? 

You see them in videos? How many have you met? 

 

I would guess as a competitive fitness person you may 

think of people who you would like to follow in their 

footsteps. But when it comes to mainstream fitness celebrities 

then it is different who you think of? 

 

If somebody says Jack LaLanne you may think 

the person saying it is kinda old?  Only because that 

is an older generation who watched his TV show. 

 

Ok, when I say the name Jillian Michaels people always 

get mad at me - but you have to admit she is a huge name and 

people know who she is! 

 

Which leads me into where I'm going with this question. 

 

Tony Horton the creator of P90X came to our show last year 

and he tore in up. He had so many people doing his workout that 

the normal Fitness Atlantic crowd was amazed at his draw and the 

massive group of people participating in his workout. 

Thing is for a guy that is 53 years old and has P90X commercials 

running all day long people really don't get tired of this guy. Because 

he really is the real deal. 

 

And with P90X 2 about to be launched it is really great that he 

is coming back to Fitness Atlantic again. 

 

 

Check out the program from last year's Ripped and Ready

Tony will be doing two workouts this April 14th and then he will 

be on stage for the finals for a special part of the show!

 

I'm really excited to have this type of tie-in with Fitness Atlantic!

 

To have someone with this popularity and draw to be connected with 

Fitness Atlantic helps us take the show to the next level. 

 

If you have never been able to meet Tony Horton in person you will 

this year because he will be there all day.

I hope you get to meet Tony because he is a awesome person. 

 

Regardless what type of fitness you train for if it is bikini, 

figure, model, or bodybuilding you can appreciate what he 

does and the energy he brings. Especially if you do personal 

training. 

 

You really should meet him because he is high-energy, incredible 

personality, and a big inspiration to anyone in fitness.
