Toronto, ON (PRWEB) May 20, 2009 - BodyProud.org is the prime stop for friendship, encouragement, and networking for personal trainers, bikini models, bodybuilders and fitness professionals. Launched by the organizers of the fast-growing FAME World Tour, BodyProud.org tells about the human side of fitness - not just long hours, grueling training regimens, and diet discipline, but the inspiring personal stories of mental and physical transformation that make each member a shining example for everyone. .“We have put together FAME World Tour events for a very long time and we knew that each competitor brings a compelling personal story and shows how people with determination and goals achieve the very best. BodyProud.org highlights those stories in a fun and interactive way,” said Jeffrey Kippel co-founder of BodyProud.org.
BodyProud.org presents social networking for the physically fit, a Facebook or MySpace like interface through which people can trade training tips, find workout partners, post personal training openings, share personal growth and transformation or relive experiences from recent FAME events. Members can complete a profile, post pictures, maintain a blog and integrate with Twitter and YouTube. Individual profile pages show how each member has embraced a Body Proud lifestyle. The site is quickly catching on. It’s currently in the top 140,000 of all Web sites in the world according to Alexa.Body Proud is both a noun describing the hot new community and a verb capturing each individual’s motivation for embracing health and fitness to enhance their quality of life.. I am Body Proud is a bold declaration of drive and determination to make being their best priority one.
“Body Proud members are on a journey for self-improvement. FAME lets each emphasize the vital mind-body connection driving transformations,” said Mindy Blackstien, co founder of Body Proud.
Community member Alec Dewdney and Body Proud were recently featured on one of Canada’s most respected newscasts, CTV News with Lloyd Robertson. Competing in Ontario FAME as a super grandmaster, he took to bodybuilding so he could build strength as he got older. Sue, his wife, suffers from MS and the strength he builds is not only for self-improvement, but means he can bring his wife along on business trips.“Each BodyProud.org member has a remarkable personal story and is available to media outlets for interviews,” Kippel said. “Every individual’s story is a testament to the power of determination and commitment and proves that anyone, regardless of background, can achieve their most desired Body Proud physique.”
This June, many journeys that began on Body Proud and continued through the FAME World Tour, will culminate in the FAME World Championships, a three day celebration of the best FAME can offer. The best from around the world will converge on Montreal to compete in 11 categories, including fitness model, bodybuilding, bikini model and physically challenged competitors. Get FAME World Championships tickets to attend this celebration of both the human body and the human spirit.“The FAME World Championships attracts Body Proud individuals from all areas of the world who wish to showcase their physique and compete for elaborate trips, magazine photo shoots, cash and exposure,” said Blackstien . “It’s really inspiring for people to come out to see the actual, real people that they interact with on BodyProud.org; it demonstrates that fitness goals are readily achieved everyday by people just like you.
“When an athlete hears applause or has the audience support they immediately take in that positive energy and it actually improve their performance. Buying a ticket for the FAME World Championships is a great way to support Body Proud Community members,” Blackstien said.
