Expert Profile: Brad J Loomis

Expertise: I am a WNBF professional bodybuilder and fitness trainer who is well versed in Exercise Physiology and Kinesiology. I am equally well versed in muscle hypertrophy and fat reduction. I have coached male, female, and teenage competitors all to top 5 finishes, 2 with class wins. Competition prep and posing are other subjects I love to teach. I am very good with nutrition, but will admit that I am not a dietician. I hold a Bachelors Degree in Radiologic Science, a Personal Training Certification with the IDEA Health and Fitness Association and am a certified RKC (Russian Kettlebell Challenge) Instructor. I am most knowledgeable in Anatomy, kinesiology and Exercise Execution, especially Compound and Isolation free weight exercises. I also love to answer questions about motivation.

Experience in the area
I have won 3 overall titles with the ABA/INBA and several class wins. In August 2008 I won the Overall title for the INBF Washington State Natural Bodybuilding Championships earning my WNBF Pro Card. I have owned and operated "Healthy Bodies Fitness" in Portola, CA for 6 years. During that time I have taught literally hundreds of clients in nearly every way. You name it and I have used it as an avenue for coaching/teaching. One on one personal training, seminars, 10 week challenges, week long courses, group training, step aerobics, what ever it takes to spread the word of health and fitness and keep my business thriving in a small community. I have also authored a book "Design your own NUTRITION" which is being represented by ST Literary Agency.

Education/Credentials
My background is in Health Care. I earned my Bachelors in Radiologic Science and have worked in Diagnostic Imaging for 13 years, thus my vast knowledge of anatomy. I also hold my personal training certification with IDEA Health and Fitness Association. The rest of my knowledge comes from frequently reading the journals of The American College of Sports Medicine and American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. There are other journals out there, but those are my favorites.

What do you like about this subject? I love the journey or quest of bodybuilding. So much of body building is not the "showing off" when you are on stage or the glory in winning, instead it is the hard work, sacrifice and daily victories that I really love about bodybuilding.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? Ultimately I hope to place in the money at a WNBF Pro Show. That will come with some more experience, years of training, and increasing my knowledge of drug free bodybuilding.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: Bodybuilding is an art form. It does not matter if you want to stand on stage, or just improve your physique, in my mind you are a bodybuilder. The act of asthetically improving your body.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject It is my opinion that you can build that "freaky" physique you often see associated with steroids without using one illegal drug. It just takes longer, requires more dedication, and an open mind
