INBA/PNBA 3x Natural Olympia champ William Long signs a multi-media contract with Generation Iron, INBA/PNBA, and Iron Man Magazine.
Athletes want to be recognized for their hard work and dedication in all sports. And the sport of natural bodybuilding is no different. However, with the agreement between an International Natural Bodybuilding Association (INBA)/Professional Natural Bodybuilding Association (PNBA) competitor and authoritative media and natural bodybuilding companies, the time for accelerative growth and respect in natural bodybuilding is now.
William Long, a legend in the Men’s Physique in natural bodybuilding – precisely the INBA/PNBA league – will help bridge the gap between natural bodybuilding and other popular sports to recognize athletes’ accomplishments. The success and loyalty he’s had in the league have paved the way for him to be the first athlete to sign a multi-media contract with powerhouse strength sports and fitness media companies – Generation Iron and Iron Man Magazine – and the largest natural bodybuilding federation – INBA/PNBA. On Instagram (IG), the INBA/PNBA published a post stating:
“Loyalty Has Its Rewards!
