Branch Warren to Sit Out the 2011 Mr. Olympia

August 21, 2011

FLEXONLINE.COM

2011 Arnold Classic Champion Branch Warren will be sitting out the 2011 Mr. Olympia on September 16 & 17 in Las Vegas. Warren was a favorite to challenge for the title, but with only four weeks to go he suffered a torn quad tendon in his left leg. As often is the case, the injury didn't happen in the gym; Warren was in Atlanta for a guest posing appearance and he slipped on wet pavement getting into a car.

After dominating the Arnold earlier in the year, Warren had his sights set on the sports biggest title: Mr. Olympia. This injury is tragic for bodybuilding fans across the globe that looked forward to seeing Warren's massive physique battling with the best in the world.

Everyone at FLEX wishes Warren a speedy recovery and we look forward to seeing him on stage next Spring to defend his Arnold Classic title!

Not a fan of Branch, but you've got to feel bad for him.

Anyway, I think he should use the time to shoot Jurassic Park IV: The Lost Thongasaurus.

***Sunday morning update***

Branch Warren left Atlanta this morning at 10:30 Eastern and expects to meet with his team of doctors at Baylor Hospital immediately after landing in Texas (approximately 11:30 Central time.) After phone consultations with his doctors they are prepared to perform surgery tomorrow morning if they think it is necessary. Currently his knee is swollen and his leg is in a wrap. MuscularDevelopment.com will continue to provide updates to Warren's condition throughout today and in the days to come.

OK Tom Brady / LeBron James

Thank fuck for that.

Look at this disgusting mess - the back should present a V taper narrowing in to a tight waist/ spinal erector area - this cun-t is straight up and down like an H - these sick judge schmoe freaks have been rewarding this mess - time to return to the 80s.

Bodybuilding is done, the last remaining beacon of symmetry and aesthetics is out of the Olympia..

What are the odds that branch tore his knee up on the leg extensions pumping up for the Guest posing, but was covered up to protect his "hardcore ape training" image

OK, it's possible to seriously injure oneself doing something as benign as getting into a car, but seriously, what is this baloney? Why do these pro BBs always get major furked up doing shit like this?! They are so frail.

What is the point in dieting to a point and training oneself to oblivion if such ridiculous mishaps crush you?

Branch, whatever his qualities as a person, is simply the scapegoat for a lot of fans' frustration at the downhill spiral in the quality of physiques.

But of course, because bodybuilders are getting bigger, we are told that to consider that progress...

In my opinion, bodybuilding peaked in 1993 and has been on the bloated, puffed up downhill run since then.
