As most of you already know we are always striving to be the best and most legitimate competition. With that we are pleased and proud to announce that THE 2014 OCT with some help from NutriForce will be increasing the prize purse this year from last year a little bit. How much you ask…How about $30,000 in cash and prizes to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place males and females. Get ready for things to heat up in January.
The time has finally come to let the cat out of the bag. We have not posted much in the last couple of days in preparation for our current announcement. Without any further words, everyone – please welcome, THE ONE AND ONLY…
Well, Well, Well. We seem to just keep pulling out the big guns for this years’ comp. Next up to be throwing down with the very best is Lindsey Valenzuela. Who else may be coming to compete. Keep checking back often and you will find out.
As mentioned yesterday we here at the OCT are always striving to be the best and most legitimate competition. This year as always, our main goal is safety and security of all of our athletes as well as our guest. We would like to take a moment and give you a bit of information on our medical team this year. They are ALL very well versed in Sports Medicine, Physical Therapy and Athlete Recovery. Please take a moment to thank them for their hard work and dedication to making us all healthier athletes. Please feel free to share.
