Biography
Hi, my name is Brian Charles Chamberlain and I was born in West Chester PA, on September 20th in 1974. Married to wife, Julie and we live in West Chester PA with our 3 sons, Brian Jr., Jack and finally our newest addition Mason.
I began lifting when I was 16. Ultimately wrestling was what lead me to bodybuilding. Long before I ever touched a weight most people would comment on my muscularity and referred to me as a bodybuilder. I competed in my First Bodybuilding show at the age of 17 where I won my class and the overall in the teen division and thus began my bodybuilding career. My drive of wanting to win and better myself as a bodybuilder, I began reading everything I could get my hands on to become better and more knowledgeable. I competed my first time as an adult at the age of 20 years old at New Jerseys 1995 NPC Muscle Beach where once again I won my class and the open Overall as a light weight. Six weeks later I won my class at the NPC PA Classic and was encouraged to go compete at the Nationals by Gary Udit; PA chairman. I knew one thing and that was there was no way in hell I was going to the nationals as a light weight! I needed to grow.
I took off from competing from 1995 till 1998 and moved up to the middle weights, winning my class and the overall at the NPC Pittsburgh Championships. Six weeks later I competed in my first national level competition, the 1998 Jr. Nationals, where I took second in the middle weight class. From there I had competed at the 1999 Nationals as a middle weight taking 3rd. Having no luck getting my pro card as a middle weight while also having trouble making the 176 cut off in 2001 I made the jump to light-heavy weight taking 4th at the nationals.
In 2004 I won the light heavy weight class and overall at the IFBB North American earning my pro card. Winning my IFBB PROCARD was a dream of mine since I was 16 yrs old. I had also dreamed of owning my own gym as a teen and in 2001 Fitness Extreme was born. September of 2001 I bought a Better Bodies gym (13,000sq. ft.) and changed the name to Fitness Extreme. In 2006 I closed fitness extreme and moved my client base to a local gym. I also began writing for Muscle Mag International where I had a column in the Sets and reps section of the magazine. I also wrote and worked for Animal Nutrition which is a hardcore supplement line created by Universal nutrition. I wrote motivational, training and nutritional articles under the alias “Bulldog”, from 2002 until 2007.
Now, along with my business partner Beau Westhoff, I own and operate ClubFit247. Along with running ClubFit247 I am also a trainer and nutritionist.
