Yet another win for Palden Digkhang
Just two months after winning 1st position in the Light Heavyweight category of NPC Mid USA & NPC New Mexico, Santa Fe’s Tibetan Bodybuilder Palden Digkhang won second position in High Caliber light Heavyweight class at NPC Sun City Regional National Qualifier 2016 held at El Paso, Texas, on August 20.
This regional competition had Bodybuilders from three states: Arizona, Texas and New Mexico, and also from Mexico country. The category in which Palden competed had 8 highly competitive Bodybuilders, and he is the only Asian.
“Really happy for the chance to compete at this show and hope to keep competing at bigger High Caliber shows. And to reach NPC National level in future,” says Palden, who plunged into Bodybuilding in the winter of 2010 and won NPC Mid USA & New Mexico State Championship in 2014.
Those following Palden’s journey see his future promising. Charles House, the winner of NPC Sun City Regional National Qualifier 2016 mentioned this on his Facebook, “…Palden Digkhang….I keep saying this over and over again, it was such a huge honor to battle with you my friend. You have a crazy/beautiful future ahead of you!…”
