Just as fast as it started, the NPC Nationals are already done and gone – leaving us with a new set of pros entering the bodybuilding arena for 2015. This weekend had a gigantic turnout with both armatures and pros showing up in Miami to either compete or show their support for the NPC and the sport of bodybuilding. The most exciting part?
