He's Back !!! Vinnie Galanti at Master Nats

chris250 · Jul 19, 2008

Vinnie Galanti was back on stage at the Master Nationals...I can remember Vinnie fighting for his pro card when I first got into this crazy sport...He looks better than ever this weekend...I honestly dont think I have ever seen him look better than this....He might have been leaner or a tad more ripped in the year he won the USA middleweight class...But, here today he has size plus great conditioning...

another pic - I remember one of the first Arnold classics that I ever went to...I was 18 or 19 and Vinnie was with Universal Nutrition booth...I think he has just won the USA middles the year before...He actully sat and talked with me about bodybuilding (cause at that time in my life that's all I could talk about ...LOL !!!) for an half hour...He made bodybuilding something positive in my life...Classic lines with great conditioning

I hope I look like that when I'm that old

diesel158 · Jul 19, 2008

Dad · Jul 19, 2008

Great photos, Chris!

So, he's a Middleweight, under 176?
Do you know how tall he is?

I looked it up before, 41, impressive

Dad,

Actully he is a light heavy now (back in 92-95,96 he was a middle) probably close to the upper limits of the class...194-195lbs (but im guessing)...Height is around 5-9 or so

I can see him being a force in the 202 under pro shows

Excellent!

I know he must be celebrating now. I remember being at a local competition in '91 and he was the guest poser.

I was there this weekend and Vin looked great. He deserved the overall. He said he isn't planning to do a Pro show at the moment but I'm sure he will be doing one in the near future. Awesome job by a great competitor.
