With the promise of getting a pro card for winning the lightweight or the heavyweight class, the 2005 NAS US Nationals will be held on November 5 at the Kentucky Convention Center, Dione Wessels told IronMind® today.

In the United States, NAS is the gateway to getting the competition and recognition you need to make it to the pro ranks in strongman and last year's heavyweight winner, Travis Ortmayer, has already gone on to have an impact on the pro circuit this year.

Wessels said that she expects approximately 100 competitors at this year's NAS nationals and for details about how to qualify for the NAS nationals, please email Dione Wessels: dione@nastrongman.com
