Armond Scipione, born in 1980 in Syracuse, New York, is an American fitness model and bodybuilder.
Scipione started weight training when he was only 14 years old. He started his first bodybuilding competition when he was 21 years old at the NABF Vermont Super Natural where he came in at 163 lbs and was fortunate to win the Junior Division and took 2nd place in the Open Middleweight. One year later, he competed in the NBA Mr. Vermont competition coming in 13 lbs heavier at 176 lbs in his best-ever condition, which was good enough to grab the Open Middleweight and Novice titles.
In 2004, Scipione entered in the Musclemania Nations Capitol but his head wasn't in the right place during the training and the best he could do was 6th. For this reason, he decided to part ways with competing for awhile and head toward fitness modeling.
A modeling agency would immediately see potential in the young bodybuilder and offer him a modeling contract. Scipione's first magazine cover was on Flex Magazine January 2004 issue. Soon after, he achieved success quickly appearing in countless major fitness magazines including: Exercise for Men Only March 2005; Men's Exercise October 2005; Fitness and Physique Magazine Summer 2007 and also graced the front covers of Men's Workout April 2008; Exercise and Health Magazine Summer 2008 and Nine5Four Magazine March 2007; among others.
In 2007, Scipione decided to go back to bodybuilding where he competed FAME North American Championships placing 3rd.
