\"DelhiNew Delhi<\/strong>: Sheru Classic Professional Championship 2012 will be held in Delhi on 6th October at Indira Gandhi Stadium in New Delhi. This is the second season of the championship. The championship is positioned as the world\u2019s 3rd largest in the Professional Bodybuilding category after Mr. Olympia and Arnold Classic. The championship will offer a cash prize worth $210,000 and the event will be a part of the two-day health & fitness extravaganza, Sheru Classic Delhi 2012.<\/p>\n

Some of the world\u2019s best Professional Bodybuilders, including Phil Heath, Kai Green, Ben White and Toney Freeman, as well as world renowned Professional Women\u2019s Figure Athletes like Nicole Wilkins, Erin Stern, Heather Dees and Felicia Romero. Participants will compete against each other in 4 main categories \u2013 Men\u2019s Professional Bodybuilding, Women\u2019s Professional Figure, Men\u2019s Professional 212 and Women\u2019s Professional Bikini.<\/p>\n

Sheru Aangrish who started the championship along with his brother Hemant Aangrish said, \u201cThis is the first professional body building event in India. We started this event with a thought that every Indian should know how important is to be fit. Through this competition we want to create interest among common people to get into body building.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also emphasised on the fact that India as a country never takes body building seriously. \u201cWe are a nation that rarely gives any importance to fitness. Countries like US and UK knows the importance of it and that reflects in the medals that they win in Olympics. We Indians lack the stamina and the strength and through this championship we want to change that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

His elder brother and co-founder Hemant said, \u201cWe want to bring a revolution in the country. First we hosted this championship in Mumbai and now it will happen in Delhi. We will look to keep changing the venue so that we can bring awareness to as many people as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sheru Aangrish said, \u201cSheru Classic is going to be the next big thing in Asia with over 30-40 major sports competitions being held under its banner by 2022. I have initiated the process with Bodybuilding because I have closely seen the hardships that fitness and Bodybuilding enthusiasts have to face in our country in order to compete at the international platform. My aim is to create awareness about Professional Bodybuilding in India so that it gets recognized as a major competitive sport. The success of last year\u2019s show has already pushed me a step ahead towards my goal\u201d.<\/p>\n

Sheru Classic Delhi 2012 will also witness a Powerlifting Competition which is being organized in association with the Indian Powerlifting Federation. In the Powerlifting Competition, men and women champions from 33 states across the country will compete against each other in four categories \u2013 Lightweight Men, Lightweight Women, Open Men and Open Women.<\/p>\n
