It seems like everyone wants to be a fitness model.  There are a few things you can do to improve your chances of landing shoots and contracts.  Some of the most important things to do are ALWAYS BE IN SHOOT READY SHAPE and SHARE KNOWLEDGE.  So how do you go about doing that?  You can share info on our Facebook page including pics and workouts.  I like to share tons of workouts here and at www.ShootReady.com  A sample of some of the info I share to promote myself as a fitness model is as follows (notice the quick snaps with the camera phone to show CURRENT CONDITION).

Become a fan of our facebook page Men's Physique and get to posting and get recognized!

The AM WORKOUT:

An old friend from Michigan and I went to the Mecca to hammer out an old school chest workout D-town style.  We brought the industry to the gym and had a great one!  Of course we ran into a couple of the pillars of the gym…Jerome Ferguson and Will Harris..great guys with great knowledge in the industry.

The LIFT:
Incline Dumbbell Press: 5×15,15,15,15,10

Incline Dumbbell Fly: 5×10

Flat Dumbbell Bench Press: 5×10

Single Arm Hammer Strength Bench Press: 4×10

Pec Deck: 3×15 Superset with Incline Style Push-Ups 3×10

After the lift we took a few snap shots included in this blog for submission for consideration for a fitness publication…then we shot over to Firehouse for a chicken breast and rice bowl.

The PM WORKOUT:

Walked in on a mission to match the intensity of the AM workout and pulled it off!  Great pump and awesome workout...simple but highly effective.

The LIFT:

Pull-Ups: 10 sets of 10

Hammer Strength Row single arm: 5x10

Lat Pulldown: 5x10

Hammer Strength high row: 3x10

Low Cable Wide Grip row: 3x10,10,6

Low Back Extension Machine: 3x25,15,10

These workouts left the muscles hungry for fuel..so i refueled and am prepped for tomorrow's workouts!

There you have a sample of how to promote yourself in this industry if you like so many others want to make it as a fitness model.  If you want to make it you need to not only do the extra rep in the gym..you must go the extra mile outside of it.
