Dan Newmire: Back with the Shave!

254lb Dan Newmire finished a respectable 5th in the supers at last weekend's NPC Jr Nationals, but the founding member of Team ChubbyKidz sounded a little forlorn in his recent blog posting as he wrote about the work needed on his middle upper back thickness, his lower lat development, and the frustrations caused by "that film of water."



Palumbo at the the RxMuscle Play-by-Play thought Dan had "tons of thick muscle.... crazy calves.... Glutes/hams.... huge delts.... good ab-thigh and most muscular." While someone with the moniker MrsNewmire seemed to think him the overall winner!

Dan Newmire: Jr. USA Super-Heavy

Competing in his final contest of 2011 this weekend, the NPC Jr. Nationals in Rosemont, IL, will be 32 year old Dan Newmire from Georgia.



Newmire was runner up in the super heavies at the Jr. USA earlier in the year. He lost the top stop to Audrius Jegelevicius, a monster to be sure, but maybe not the most aesthetically appealing physique. I think it is safe to say Newmire's physique is definitely "prettier" (if that's a good word to describe it).

Posting in his training journal over the weekend, weighing in at 253lbs and hoping "be close to 260-265 lbs on stage without sacrificing any of my structure."



Newmire has done the shaved head thing in the past, for photo shoots and the 2008 Nationals, and I think it's time to go that route again!
