PBW Presents: Vinny Galanti's 24 Year Road to the Pro's (Replay Now Available)

Plus: IFBB Updates and Insider Reports

In 1984, a 17 year-old Vinny Galanti competed in the teen division at his first local bodybuilding contest (finishing last place). The event turned out to be the start of one of bodybuilding's true stories of dedication and perseverance as Galanti spent the next 24 years trying to join the IFBB's professional ranks. In 2008, competing in his 13th National level event at 41 years-old, Galanti's dedication was rewarded with an overall title at the 2008 Masters Nationals. This week, on the 149th edition of PBW, Galanti visits the show as he prepares for his long awaited IFBB pro debut. Presented by MuscleTech, bodybuilding talk radio airs LIVE on Mondays at 8pm ET.
