Old Navy
Registered User
My name is Scott "Old Navy" Hults. I am a retired U.S. Navy Captain. I got the nickname, "Old Navy" from my fellow gym rats while I was preparing to enter my first bodybuilding contest in 2004 at the age of 61. My training was intense.
The guys would say things like, "Hey, Old Navy, slow down man, take it easy, you aren't that young anymore." What they didn?t understand was, to me, age is a statistic not a burden. Nevertheless, I like the nickname so I kept it.
In March of 2005, after training for 10 months, I entered my first competition, a non-tested NPC event. In the following 21 months I entered 15 more tested and non-tested contests, winning 32 weight, height, age class and best poser (3) trophies, including the 2006 FAME WNSO Men's Masters 60+ World Championship in Toronto in June, and at 63 years of age, my Masters Pro Card at the 2006 NGA National Bodybuilding & Figure World Championships in Georgia in September and a second Masters Pro Card at the 2006 IDFA Canadian Classic II in Toronto in November 2006.
Along the way, Bodybuilding.com named me "Amateur Bodybuilder of the Week" in 2005, and "Over 40 Amateur Bodybuilder of the Week" in 2006. On Saturday, I was selected as the 2006 Bodybuilding.com "Over 40 Amateur of the Year." A nice way to end my amateur competitions.
I will enter my first Natural Professional Masters competition, the 2007 NGA Pro/Am in Duluth, Georgia on September 8. This is the show where I won my first Masters Pro Card. I will then continue training to enter the 2007 IDFA Canadian Classic III in Toronto six weeks later, at the same venue where I won my second Masters Pro Card this year.
My final Pro Show in my first year of pro competitions will be the NGA National Night of Champions Pro Master and Pro Figure in Houston, Texas on November 17. As a warm up to my pro debut, I might compete in the 2007 NPC Alabama State Championship as a Open Lightweight and Men's Master 60+
I stepped onto the stage in Toronto at the Canadian Classic II weighing 141 pounds. I entered the contest about three pounds fuller than any other contest I entered in 2006. I am 5' 6.5" tall.
My goal for my first Pro Show is to compete somewhere between 150 and 155 pounds with a body fat less than 5%. This is the challenge. I will focus on heavy lifting with fewer reps in order to add size. Of course, I will intersperse this with endurance work and maintenance work (hardening) along the way.
I'm glad to be here and I hope to learn a lot of new and interesting things.
