post a pic
1. take proffessional pix (find a photographer who speicalizies in body/art posing etc)
2. mail pix w/stats to the publishers office of the big bbing mags.address will be right on the first few pages... (gonna take alot of money to get the pics out there, also inclose those pics in priority mail enevlopes) send them all out to all the mags
3. follow up with a letter 10-14 days later (thank you type of thing)
4. go to bbing trade shows ....if you are a #1 stunna a supplement company or someone may ask you (always looking)
5. helps to be in LA for fitness modeling since most of the bbing shoots are there and LA is just the place for fitness models.. best place to get noticed
6. enter some bbing shows.. most fitness models seem to do a few shows.... get your name out there
7. train at midcity (hee hee)
8. u wont make it as a living bro...unless u are a mike o hearn or frank sepe (2 hottest guys ever) and they do more then just fitness model
Edited added..
when u send pix send head shots and also send pix in color as well .the body looks best in black and white but send some colored shots so they have an idea how u look in color.

Good advice. I did modelling for a supp company, got the gig through knowing people in the industry. Go to shows, make contacts with the different companies there.
You could call the photography dept of local univ/college and see if any advanced students (sr's, grad stu) want to do some photos for their portfolio. This can be cheap, but decent way to get some pictures to send.
Unless you are a "big time fitness model" (almost an oxymoron there, no real such thing) you will likely get like $200 a photo shoot. And that is on the high end. Many shoots in magazines, esp in the first year or so, are done for free - to get your face/body out there. It is VERY unlikely you will get a monthly salary from a company - some supp companies do that, but only for "names" in the industry. You would never get that in the beginning.
