My name is Josh Jurhill. I am from Scottsdale, AZ and currently live in Phoenix. I Graduated from Saguaro High School in 2002, attended Phoenix College while working full time for The Hartford Insurance. I climbed the corporate ladder and now investigate fraud in vehicle thefts and fires. Recently, however, I have begun to pursue another field and aspire to be a fire fighter. I feel this profession will allow me to better serve my community and take full advantage of my physical fitness.

I have been active in sports my entire life, excelling in football, golf, baseball, track and most prominently basketball. Active participation in team and individual sport taught me important life lessons in teamwork, motivation, commitment and competitiveness. As my body matured and I continued weight training I discovered a natural ability to gain and maintain muscle mass. It wasn’t until Spring of 2006 that I decided to take my diet and training to the next level and try my hand in Body Building.

I competed in my first contest in September 2006. I saw immediate gratification for my hard work and perseverance as I took 1st place in the Novice category and 2nd overall. This left room for improvement and by my second competition I swept 1st place in ever category including “Best Poser”, and winning my Pro-Card. Although I continue to train as a Body Builder my main focus is health and fitness. Body Building has provided me with countless lessons that I apply to my daily life. The motivation and inspiration I feel while training is indescribable and can only be a positive. I have used my knowledge to inspire and assist others which gives me a feeling of great accomplishment.

In order to stay in competition shape I train twice a day and maintain a high protein, low-carb diet. I incorporate protein shakes and fat burners as my only supplement and truly believe that the natural form of training and eating produces the best results on most longevity.

My experience working with John Mitchell was a very enjoyable one. First of all he is an excellent photographer and does a very good job of directing you on posing from behind the camera. The location we shot at was also excellent and provided a great backdrop for the images. John was also an excellent host which made the travel and stays very pleasant. I was also able to meet a couple of fellow bodybuilders who were good guys and easy to hang out with during the photo process. I would definitely recommend John and look forward to working with him again.
