REAL World Tour - Cancellation of November 2010 event

HOUSTON, TX - Oct 6, 2010

Through a series of unfortunate events, we will be cancelling the REALvolution 2010 event planned for November 6th, 2010.

In recent weeks, we have had two of our major sponsors withdraw their financial support due to the current economic situation. They will remain unnamed, but know they fully support REAL and all our efforts and will be sponsoring future events as the market turns towards a positive direction.
We are all very sorry for the inconvenience and please know that this decision does not come without deep sadness on our end. We will move forward with the same dignity, perseverance and dedication to our athletes, vendors and industry the way we have in the past.

We pride ourselves with being direct and forward with our communications and to do the best we can for ALL our athletes. With this in mind, we have developed the best resolution for this unfortunate situation:


For EVERY registered athlete, we will provide:

A full refund of all monies spent towards the REALvolution

Send a gift bag full of things from our various sponsors (min $100 value)

Free entry to any future REAL event

Award a partial cash sponsorship to that REAL event to assist in compensation for travel

Award free competition tanning through Liquid Sun Rayz at their next REAL event

Hold two free VIP tickets for the athlete's spectators at their next REAL event

We send our apologies to those prepping for this event, and even to those who are prepping but did not register. This is unfortunate and we have extended what we can to remedy the situation. Please feel free to contact the REAL team with any questions regarding this matter.

We do have two amazing events already planned and fully paid for in the beginning of 2011. The REAL Deep South will be held in April and the Lone Star Weekend will be held in Houston in August. Both will host all our fantastic divisions of Bodybuilding, Figure, Fitness Models and REAL Beauty as well as our REAL Deal Challenge.

Thank you all for your support and keep an eye out for REAL TV, REAL athlete series and so much more just around the corner!

REAL Entertainment Athletes Leaders (REAL) is based out of Houston, TX. Formed by longtime fitness professionals and athletes, Jason C Powell & Kai Powell, REAL provides educational seminars, speaking engagements and mentoring programs regarding drug-free fitness and athletics.

The Rachel McLish Beauty and Fitness Festival - October 7th-10th

Rachel McLish, America’s preeminent fitness icon, World Champion bodybuilder, actor, body wear designer, and best-selling author, is preparing to launch the world’s premier beauty and fitness event staged at the Mirage Casino-Hotel in Las Vegas, Columbus Day Weekend, October 7th-10th, 2010…The Rachel McLish Beauty and Fitness Festival.

The Festival will include an expo, a symposium, seminars, a 5K for charity, parties, receptions, celebrities, entertainment, and the event highlight… The Rachel Challenge, an amazing opportunity for fit, beautiful women to break into the entertainment industry. Do you have what it takes to win a part in a movie? That’s The Rachel Challenge!

The Rachel Challenge

The Rachel Challenge is a unique expression of physical excellence and beauty. To be the winner of the Rachel Challenge means that you have embraced a fitness lifestyle that is reflected in your entire essence. Your health, your vibrancy, your attitude, your posture, your walk, your demeanor, your manner of speaking, and your figure will determine your overall fitness beauty and perhaps that indefinable quality that all stars have…charisma.

The Rachel Challenge is not a physique contest. There is no title to be won. There is no organization to join, or be a member of. It is an open invitation to challenge the ‘best of the best’ of fitness buffs, athletes, models, dancers, personal trainers, and instructors across America. The Challenge is not exclusively about how defined, sexy, or muscular you are. The Challenge is to express how your fitness philosophy/regimen is superior by evidence of your physical presence; while part two of the Challenge will involve taking a screen test that will be evaluated by entertainment industry professionals.

If you are passionate about your fitness lifestyle, here is your opportunity to show the world, on stage, at the Mirage Casino-Hotel in Las Vegas why you should be the one to walk away with $25,000.00 and a chance for a part in a movie or television series.

Bodybuilding contest planned for Sportex

International sports and leisure industry exhibition to showcase the ultimate in personal fitness levels through competition

Healthy business will be literally rippling its muscles at this year’s Sportex Middle East exhibition, as the trade show plays host to its fourth annual bodybuilding championship.

This year’s event, set to take place in December, will see increased competition, as the Emirates Bodybuilding Federation (EBBF) adds a third category to the fitness contest, encouraging athletes to enter for the 80kg,80-90kg and 90+kg categories.


Timed to coincide with National Day celebrations across the UAE, December 6th will see athletes from across the GCC and beyond weighing in in readiness for a tough show of strength. December 7th will see muscles flexed as competitors go head to head to win cash prizes, medals and the coveted Sportex cup.

“The Sportex Bodybuilding Competition has fast become one of the prize events in the Middle East’s annual sporting calendar, attracting athletes from across the region keen to show off their physical prowess,” said Abdul Rehman Falaknaz, President of IEC.

“With the new 90+kg category we expect to see an even higher level of entries and look forward to an impressive show of strength,” he added.

Would-be competitors need to contact the EBBF to enter the competition.
Last year’s contest saw strong participation, with athletes from the UAE, Egypt, Iran, Bahrain, Syria, Lebanon and Saudi Arabia.


The winner of the under-80kg category was Humaid Reda from Al Ein Classic Gym in Iran. The winner of the over-80kg category was Zaher Makhl from Lebanon’s Unifit Gym.
The 2008 edition of the Sportex Middle East exhibition, held in early November at Dubai World Trade Centre, was the most successful event in the event’s six-year history. More than 3,250 trade visitors attended the event, which was endorsed by Dubai Sports Council and presented by Dubai Sports City.


Some 79 companies exhibited at Sportex 2008 showcasing the very latest in sports, fitness, health, outdoor and stadium equipment.

Sportex is supported by the World Federation of the Sporting Goods Industry (WFSGI), a world authoritative body for the sports industry and officially recognized by the IOC.

Sportex 2009 will run from December 6 to 8 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

71-year-old man to muscle in on bodybuilding competition

A HIPSBURN man is preparing to flex his muscles at a regional bodybuilding championship – aged 71.


Pumped-up pensioner Ian Smith will prove age is no barrier when he flaunts his physique at the NABBA North Britain Bodybuilding Championships in Hartlepool at the beginning of May.


And it is believed that when Ian steps on stage, he will be the oldest competitior to ever grace the championships.


Toned Ian, of Steppy Lane, will be entering the Over 50s class and competing against musclemen 20-years his junior.


He said: “I’m looking forward to the challenge and I am taking part for the experience.


“I know I won’t look like Arnold Schwarzenegar or even Mr Universe but I never expected to come this far and I will be happy with the result at the end of the day.”


Ian, who admits some of his friends think he is ‘crackers’ for taking up the challenge, is transforming his body at Alnwick’s No Limits Gym on Fenkle Street.


He is currently training four times a week, with a mixture of weight and cardiovascular work, and is eating a protein-rich, low-fat controlled diet of 2,000 calories a day.


Ian Simpson, who runs No Limits Gym, said: “Ian is not your average 71-year-old.


“I have been to a lot of shows and I have never seen anyone that age on the stage. But he certainly won’t embarrass himself.”


Super-fit Ian currently has 17 per cent body fat and he is aiming to slash that further in the next few weeks. The average 40-year-old has a body fat of between 30 and 40 per cent.


Mr Simpson added: “Ian’s story sends out a positive message and proves that age is no barrier.”


Ian started working out a few years ago when his doctor told him to reduce his cholesterol and body weight.


He said: “I was starting to put on some weight so I joined No Limits. Things started to happen, firstly weight loss but also my strength was increasing regularly, causing me to lift more weights and gain muscle definition.


“In 2008, members of the gym said: ‘I hope I look like that when I’m 70.’


“So I approached Ian about the competition and asked whether or not he thought I would look okay for it and he saw no reason why I shouldn’t go for it.”


Ian has also urged people of a similar age to join a gym and get active.


He said: “I would say have a crack at it. It does take dedication and discipline, but anybody can do it.”


Ian isn’t the only No Limits member to be preparing for the Hartlepool event in the spring. Sixteen-year-old James Spinks, of Felton, and Alnwick’s Harry Ainslie, 20, are competing. There is also a father and son connection, with Stuart French, 16, and dad Leslie, 44, both of South Broomhill, gearing up for the contest.

Bodybuilding has found a home in DeKalb through competition, enthusiasts

When you think of DeKalb, bodybuilding is probably not the first thing that comes to mind.

But if you’re Ray Binkowski, owner of Wright Athletic Club, it does.

The Egyptian Theatre, 135 N. Second Street, has hosted the Organization of Competitive Bodybuilders’ Midwest States Bodybuilding and Figure Competition since 2005.

Binkowski, an NIU alumnus, is the organizer and promoter of the drug-free event and serves as a judge.

“I’m a competitor,” he said. “I wanted to create a place where people can compete.”

Binkowski said the Egyptian Theatre is a unique place to host the event.

“It’s a national landmark theater,” he said. “We have Egyptian-themed awards and trophies, which means the competitors have an opportunity to win something they can’t get any place else.”

Binkowski said it has taken some time to gain popularity.

“The first year we only had about 19 competitors,” Binkowski said. “Now we average between 60 and 70 competitors.”

Bodybuilders from all over the United States now come to compete, Binkowski said.

First-time competitor and DeKalb resident Matt Kunz said competing in the event was a goal of his.

“It was one of my life goals to be in good enough shape to compete,” Kunz, 33, said, “and to have the guts to get up on stage.”

Kunz helped with the event in the past, mainly setting up and taking down the sets. This year, he wanted to take it a step further.

“It was very rewarding to see the results of hard work,” Kunz said. “I’ve learned a lot in terms of weight management and self-discipline.”

Alex Nerad, Egyptian Theatre operations director, said Binkowski has been a major reason why the event has been successful.

“He has done a great job in promoting the event,” Nerad said. “It has turned into a great annual event for the theater to hold.”

11th Annual NGA World Bodybuilding & Figure Championship - September 26, 2009

11th Annual NGA World Bodybuilding & Figure Championship


(Pro and Amateur)
September 26, 2009
Gwinnett Center
Performing Arts Auditorium
Duluth, Georgia


The World Bodybuilding and Figure Championship was founded by Carlos Jordan in 1988. Carlos Jordan began as a personal trainer in 1998 with Atlanta’s Own, I.F.B.B. Mr. Olympia winner, Lee Haney at Animal Kingdom for 2 years. He later joined Fitness Today where he stayed for 3 years and finally found a home at Planet Fitness (formally Gold’s Gym) on Buford Highway where he grew into near legendary status for 16 years. In mid 2000 he began construction of his very own personal training studio and in February 2001 he opened ltimate Bodies by Carlos.


Carlos Jordan entered into a local bodybuilding competition that lead him to place 5th. After the show he was frustrated because he and others felt he should have placed higher if not first overall. He felt that with all the hard work and long hours in the gym, sacrificing his favorite meals to stay on a strict diet that would allow him to lean out and build muscle, hours of cardio sessions, etc. Not only physical but mental discipline. His failure to place top in his division was based on the judges bias and there were no guidelines to go by. He created the 1st annual NOPI nationals World Body Building and Figure Championship with both amateur and professional competitors including Novice, Master, Super Grand Master, and Open Short and Tall figure categories.
His first show as a promoter was held out doors as part of the NOPI Nationals, a motor club enthusiast event for 2 years. His 3rd event was held at the auditorium at Grady High School. Each year his show grew with more contestants and began attracting more attention from the local community. It has now turned into a once a year Main Event held at the Gwinnett Center in Duluth, Georgia.
