The 2022 INBA Capital City Championships took place on Saturday, April 16, 2022, in Davis, California. Julian Irvin led the way to win Men’s Bodybuilding and was awarded the Most Muscular Award. Irvin served in the military and trained himself for the show. Winning this event earned Juilain Irvin his PNBA Pro Qualification.
INBA Capital City Championships Recap and Outstanding Athletes
Other standout athletes include Bunthoeum Ham, an active USA Navy recruit whose posing was magnificent. It paid off for Ham after attending the INBA PNBA Workshop held May 19 in Corona, CA, where he received posing tips from PNBA professionals Derek Joe and Dr. Peter Chchonski. This show was also his first time competing, and he took home first place in Classic Physique Open, won Best Poser, and walked away with a PNBA Pro Qualification.
Diego Garcia is another competitor to take notice of. It was Garcia’s first time competing, and he won both the Men’s Physique Novice and Open classes. The competition was fierce, though, so two PNBA Pro Qualifications were awarded in the Men’s Physique Open class, both the first and second place finishers – Diego Garcia and Heinrich Stohner. It’s a rare circumstance; however, when the competition is close, Denny Kakos or the CEO Diana Kakos may award two pro cards in the same category.
PNBA pro and multi-media athlete Marc Cheatham also appeared and awarded the Men’s Physique open category.

It wasn’t just a happy turnout for the boys. Women ranging from their mid-20s – to 50s were inspirational. For example, Julie Romeros began a weight loss journey in October 2020. Initially, Romero only wanted to lose 20 lbs. But once the pounds started coming off, she kept going. She’s lost a total of 61 lbs so far and wants to inspire others to take a step toward a healthy future. Betty Mayes is another inspirational woman competitor who’s lost 41 lbs. And Analyssa Navaros proves how fabulous you can look after bearing two children.
Additionally, Julie Hall and Mary Haynes were awarded their PNBA Pro Qualifications. Hall won both the Grand Masters Figure and Open Figure, and Mary Haynes won Figure Masters. The Bikini Divas Open category was a close one, but Aubrie Koll had what it took to win and earn her PNBA pro qualification.
Iron Man Magazine and Pro City Supplements provided prizes to the winners.
