I don't think there's a rule against doing both, but Ben mentioned after the show that he's doing the Olympia this year and maybe the WSB next year.  Now that Johnnie is qualified for the O, will he even be doing WSB?

The IFBB typically hasn't let people do two Olympia contests. As I stated, after Sonny Schmidt did the Masters and regular Olympia in 1995, they banned that in 1996. WHen Kevin English and David Henry did both the 202 Olympia and regular Olympia (English also won the NY Pro 202 and placed second in the open show), they banned that, too, the next year.

Jackson has already stated that he was not doing the WSBB contest. He did consider training White for it, however (according to FLEX). It seems their common movitation, if any, is to shut up Stan "Rhino" Efferding. I refer you to the shot White took at Efferding.

Under the current rules, can Ben White compete in both the Olympia and the "World's Strongest Bodybuilder" contest?

No, he cant...

We do not want to put any athlete in a position to get injured, and being dieted down / competing in a strong man competition is about as far apart as it gets when it comes to preparation...

So, the concern is injury, not doing multiple Olympia shows?

White can argue (as could Efferding, if he actually qualified for the Olympia) that he could do both shows. Though he claims he can't do so now, due to age, Johnnie Jackson says he competed in (and won) a powerlifting meet, three weeks before winning the Nationals in 2001.

Efferding also said he did a meet shortly before winning the Masters Nationals in 2008.

So, it appears that "Rhino" will get the "World Strongest Bodybuilder" title by default.

But ridiculously water depleted steroid monsters flexing their muscles to the point of hypoxia doesn't seem to be a problem.

Doing them on the same DAY, would not be in the best interest...were not talking weeks before.  There is no arguing the point, were simply not allowing it

Everyone who has seen Bob Chick in his prime has said that he was as wide as a house with a thick massive back. But was it better than Ben Whites?

When I first read your thread title I thought it said Bob Chick on Ben Weider, which I found strange as Tom Prince said Bob was a submissive bottom.

Bobby Chick to Drink Tequila with Ben White (Again)?
« Reply #60 on: July 19, 2010, 06:02:00 PM »
Funny as hell.  Ben and Bob on PBW talking about a wager they made before Tampa show.  Looks like Bob picked Ben to finish lower and Ben stuck it up Bobby's ass by winning the whole show.  The wager had something to do with drinking tequila and Bob has never even been drunk in his life. 

Bob choked down the tequlia, but will be drinking Patrone next week if Ben White gets #1 in the Hartford show.

Lets hope Bob doesn't turn into a raging alcoholic like many on this board.

In other news, Derek Anthony wins a bet and still drinks protein straight from the tap.

Are you saying he meets Tom Prince on a regular basis at a random ice machine?
