Fitman, owner of the Fitman Performance & Physique Center in Abington isn\u2019t shy about telling the truth when it comes to natural bodybuilding. <\/p>\n
\u201cTalking about competing is easy,\u201d he said. \u201cBut stepping on stage is a completely different animal.\u201d The Abington-based personal trainer, 2022 NGA Mr. Natural Philadelphia winner, and professional natural bodybuilder knows this first-hand. <\/p>\n
In 2011, he entered his first show after coaching himself for nearly a year. <\/p>\n
\u201cI thought I was ready,\u201d Fitman said. \u201cBut I wasn\u2019t. I walked into a storm of misinformation during that year. I didn\u2019t analyze my weaknesses, and I paid for it under those bright lights. That failure taught me about what it really takes to succeed.\u201d <\/p>\n
Now, more than a decade later, Fitman passes those lessons on to athletes, professionals, and everyday residents in the Glenside and Abington communities. His approach blends honesty, patience, and hard work. It\u2019s the same formula that lifted him from being, in his words, the \u201cBird Man of natural bodybuilding\u201d to a pro-level competitor. <\/p>\n
