Hallart Keaton: Beastmode is Always ON!
Congrats on a great showing! What made you decide to compete in the Men’s Physique Division?
I've competed as a men's middleweight bodybuilder and someone told me about the new Men’s Physique category and I wanted to see how I would do as a Physique competitor.
Can you tell us a little about the show in which you most recently competed?
My most recent competition was the Lackland Classic where I competed in the A class open as well as in Masters. I placed second in both categories and qualified for Team Universe.
How did you feel after pre-judging?
Positive. I know I brought my best package going in. Definitely a sense of relief that it was over and a great sense of pride that I competed amongst such great competition!
How did you feel about the final results of the show?
I was disappointed I didn't place first but I was happy that I placed top 3 to qualify for Team Universe. I qualified for Master Nationals at the Houston Pro but this win secured an additional ticket to Team U.
What are your thoughts on the Men's Physique Division and what it may be able to do for your career?
I am very excited about future opportunities. I hope to secure sponsorships and endorsement deals!
