I was hitting the gym twice a week for a stretch during the spring, then the baby came and I was packing on the baby fat during the summer. Olympia came and went baby is now 6 months and the "Call of the Wild" is playing in my ears with everyone asking the Comeback question.
With that, I decided to cruise in the gym and see what it looks like and sure enough, the weights looked pretty good to me, even Sexy!
So, as of this morning I woke up, Whipped up some Eggs Whites n Oatmeal, went to the gym and trained with 6 time Middleweight Champion of Ireland, Brian Bullman on Chest and Tri's (lt wt of course!)
I got a hard on for the rush of Blood pulsating through my veins and when I got home, I tossed a big Porterhouse Steak on the BBQ Grill with some steam Rice and felt like I was in Heaven!
I am now working on meal number 3 hoping to get in 5 today! I will repeat the cycle all week, by the way I also did my Ab routine of years past so I know tomorrow I'm screwed either way.
If I can make it through to Friday and again up to the nationals in November, the New Year will be a cake walk! At which time, I should no longer be sore, dieted dwon a bit of the baby fat and ready to make my Push for 200lbs by the Arnold Classic! Then I will assess my progress and if the fire is burning hot, I will serve notice to Lee Priest, Richard Jones, David Henry and all the other Midgets out there who want to try and make a name off my hard work!
What, WHAT!

It will  be great for bodybuilding to see all the midgets up on stage battling it out.  The crowd will go absolutely crazy!

is he doing that 202 MrO?  WTF?  is the money the same?  if he has a sponsor to drop six figs on him....should no problem putting together a 2-3 yr run for possible title.  2008 had to be the worst O in like 10 yrs outside of the relentless (no pun) hype of Phil "Ungifted Width" Heath.

I don't really like the guy, but it would be pretty cool if he made a comeback. With genetics like his, it wouldn't be unrealistic for him to do so...

Lee and Shawn on the same stage, would be pretty funny...

The fact that anyone would give a fuck about Shawn coming back at 40 years+ is a interesting statement about Bbing nowadays.

i wonder what his drug cycle will look like.

I second that. How 'bout giving us the "No Bull" lowdown on your cycle, Shawn?

They both should.  No way is Shawn comes back.  He was obsessed with one thing and that was winning the O. he'd have a good chance to win the open at the Arnold or atleast place top 3-4 and make more three times as much as what he'd make winning the under 200.  Haney then Dorian then Ronnie and arguably should have won an O or two.  If he said Olympia or regular class at the Arnold I might believe him.  Hope i'm wrong though would be great to see him and Kev back onstage

oh brother i can't believe people ever compared shawn to Mr. Levrone ::)

as for this comeback it ain't happening

don't forget shawn knew he was done after the 2001 O but claimed for about 2-3 years that he was going to do the olympia

he just wants publicity

Many people would like to see Shawn on stage again and see if he can pull off a physique at least somewhat similar to the epic years.

Imagine what Shawn would look like if he used the same amount of Oil as say Heath....

Terrible. Shawn's arms were in good proportion to his body as they were.

Shawn had an incredible career and physique that is definitely not appreciated the way it should be. *internet beefs, squabbles and disrespectful bullshit dispensed by bodybuilding nobodies can have that effect*
That said, no need for a come back.  Why should Shawn put his body through all of that when he has NOTHING  to prove.

He won't get back on stage.

He will not be able to regain the leg size.  Look at all pros as they age, the leg size is the hardest to maintain...It's simply part of getting old.
