The NPC Nationals is the largest and biggest NPC show of the year, where seven competitors, the winners of each of their class, become eligible for pro status with the IFBB. Seven new IFBB Pros, so a lot is at stake here. This years contest is in Miami, Florida, and while many of us have had favorites going into this contest, there are a few surprises that may just pop up. Friday was the prejudging, and Saturday are the men's finals. Here is who competed, if they made the cut into the final 15, and the callouts, which usually helps to sum up where they are in the placings, although anything can change.
