Hey guys,
I hope everyone is well. I just wanted to pass this press release along. Hopefully some of you guys can attend.
On Saturday, March 21, 2009 The Rush Fitness Complex is hosting the Weider Superstar Seminar and the first annual “Lift for Life” bodyweight bench press competition to benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association. The competition is being held in conjunction with the 2nd annual Weider Superstar Seminar that is returning again this year to Knoxville. The event is from 12-4 pm at The Rush Fitness Complex located in the Walker Springs Plaza. The "Lift for Life" bodyweight bench pressing competition will begin at 2pm. There is no fee for the seminar.
Weider publications is a publisher of health and fitness magazines including Flex, Muscle & Fitness, Muscle & Fitness Hers, and Shape among others. The event will be covered and featured by Weider and video on Flexonline. The seminar will consist of a men’s portion and a women’s portion that will cover topics training, competing, and general health and fitness questions.
Individuals attending the seminar will have the opportunity to meet and talk with athletes such as Mr. Olympia, IFBB Pro Dexter Jackson, Bodybuilding Champion IFBB Pro Dennis James, IFBB Figure Pro and cover model Jessica Putnam, IFBB Fitness Pro and fitness model Julie Lohre, and FLEX Bikini Model Winner and Weider athlete Kathleen Tesori, as well as Knoxville's only IFBB Professional Bodybuilder, IFBB Pro Peter Putnam.

Contestants entering the bodyweight bench press competition will be competing to see how many times they can lift their own body weight in the bench press. Trophies will be awarded to the top male and top female lifters. Those in attendance will also be able to challenge Jen Widestrom(Phoenix) in the "Gladiator Charity Challenge" to a jousting match. Entry to compete is $25.00 for each event. All proceeds from both events and t-shirt sells will be donated to MDA.
*Athletes also signing merch to be auctioned.
The money raised at this event will be used to provide the following services and assistance for families in the Greater East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia area served by the local MDA offices.
