Troy Alves Comes Full Circle With 2011 IFBB Phoenix Pro Win

A year ago at this time, Troy Alves was unsure where his bodybuilding career was headed. He had just lost his supplement contract and contemplated skipping the 2010 Mr. Olympia. But at the 11th hour, the veteran found a new sponsor and was part of the sport’s elite contest once again. “I’m excited that I [...]

Kai Greene An Olympia Factor After New York Pro Win

Needing a dominant performance in the 2011 New York Pro, Kai Greene didn’t disappoint. With the backing of an enthusiastic home town crowd, the Brooklyn native had it sealed up at pre-judging. Bringing a physique that won him two consecutive Arnold Classics, Greene was vastly improved from the last time we saw him on stage [...]

Don’t Discount Kai Greene As a Top Three in the 2011 Mr. Olympia

In the months leading up to the 2010 Mr. Olympia, there was one name being thrown around as a possible to unseat the reigning champion and cap off a career year. But when it was all said and done and the sun rose the next day in the Las Vegas desert, Jay Cutler held up [...]

Ms. International (Arnold Classic) Pre-Judging Report

Is it too late to change our prediction for the Ms. International? On paper, we liked Yaxeni Oriquen-Garcia to end Iris Kyle’s reign, but the pre-judging on Friday afternoon dictated otherwise. Oriquen-Garcia looked smaller and much smoother than she did at the Ms. Olympia last September, while Kyle seems to have added a little to [...]

Kai Greene Primed to Take Next Step at Mr. Olympia

With less than a month ago before the Mr. Olympia, Kai Greene has everything in place. The two-time Arnold Classic champion has reportedly been training extremely hard in preparation for the battle with Jay Cutler and looked huge on his recent appearance on ESPN2. Greene will have his work cut out for him in taking [...]

It’s ‘Put Up or Shut Up’ Time for Dexter Jackson at the Arnold Classic

It’s kind of odd that someone who was on top of the bodybuilding world a mere six months ago can be at a career crossroads now, but it can be argued that Dexter Jackson needs to do more than okay at the 2010 Arnold Classic this weekend. But he is 40 years old and has [...]

As bodybuilding fans all know by now, Badell took [...]

Old School Workout No. 3 – Robby Robinson’s Heavy/Light

By Ian Duckett -For those who are familiar with my writings, articles, blogs and such, you will be aware of my time spent with the great Robby Robinson last September. It was an experience and an inspiration I will never forget. I was well and truly schooled in getting the most from all my bodybuilding, nutrition and [...]

Markus Ruhl Competing at the Olympia Shows That Size Does Matter

With Dexter Jackson and Kai Greene winning the last two prominent titles in bodybuilding, it seemed that the worm started to turn as far as freaky mass taking home the biggest check. The Mr. Olympia contest has been dominated by size since Dorian Yates won his first Sandow in 1992, through the seven year-reign of [...]

How About Gustavo Badell as an Arnold Classic Wild Card?

One name that hasn’t been mentioned as a serious contender for the upcoming Arnold Classic has been Gustavo Badell. A good question is why not? The ‘Freakin’ Rican’ had a fairly successful 2008 in three top contests. He was the runner-up at the Ironman Pro Invitational, sixth in the last Arnold Classic and 10th at [...]
