He was very promising for a while, then he disappeared. His most recent outings haven't been successful at all.

injuries.

if you seen his videos and read what other pros say about his training you would understand he was an accident waiting to happen.

ego driven trainer.

he was very good for a couple of years and could have been even better if he would have just lifted a bit lighter (still heavy) and worked his muscles properly.

ALL EGO.

ohh yes..he was handling 200kg+ on the incline for reps

but he worked too heavy and injured himself.

he is finished (been for several years)


he is at his best in his first video....viking strong....recorded when he was living in the uk and training in birmingham in temple gym (with dorian inspired training...but much more sloppy+too many forced reps etc)

I don't think he is under contract with Weider/AMI so he is not being promoted as one of their favorite bodybuilders, but he is certainly out there competing.  He's done two shows this year, three shows last year, four shows the year before that, and six shows the year before that...

Sometimes, I wish contests should be staged with hoods or faceless bodies.  Preconceived notions about who should look good, who looked good in previous contests, or who is under contract too often influences where guys place.  >:(

Haven't we all seen this happen?

From the pics it looks like Tommi was onstage in Oslo at the "Battle of the Giants." Goodbye IFBB career?
