Ok, well maybe we aren’t the ‘experts’ out there, but Lonnie Teper, Isaac Hinds, and Ron Avidan do manage to have lots of fun, and enjoy the Olympia weekend to it’s fullest. Right after the results of the 2008 Mr. Olympia, we made a video discussing on what we thought, who won, and if our [...]
Many thought it could not happen, but it did. Dexter Jackson beat Jay Cutler to win his first Mr. Olympia title. Jay, again, was not at his very best at Friday night’s prejudging, but managed to lose 12 pounds by Saturday night to fare much better, and even win the night. However, the point spread [...]
Adela Garcia was injured this year, so she didn’t compete, which guaranteed us a new Fitness Olympia winner. And Jen Hendershott dominated this year, exploding to another win in the year in which we heard retirement rumors from her. Tracey Greenwood placed second in her best Olympia showing yet, and Kim Scheideler (formally Klein) placed [...]
Over a favored Gina Aliotti in the hype before the contest, Jenn Gates became the third Figure Olympia champion as she looked absolutely perfect. Jenny Lynn, last year’s winner, came in 4th place, while Zivile Raudoniene looked spectacular in her third place finish.
Here are the complete scorecard results from the Figure Olympia.

There is no stopping Iris Kyle. Once again, she has won the Ms. Olympia contest, and four times out of the last five. It truly was no contest this year. Iris again looked great, and defeated Betty Viana-Adkins, Yaxeni Oriquen-Garcia, Lisa Aukland and Dayana Cadeau, in that order. Between second to fifth, the scorecard was extremely close, [...]
Wow. Six IFBB contests were held in Atlantic City, New Jersey on Friday and Saturday, with two weeks left to go before the Olympia Weekend begins. For Bodybuilding and Fitness, this was the last time to qualify for the Olympia, and there were quite a few that competed.
Melvin Anthony wanted to show everyone [...]
It was a good weekend in Dallas, as Toney Freeman beat Dennis James again in a rematch from last weeks Tampa Pro Bodybulding contest. However, Fouad Abiad placed ahead of an incredible Will Harris to garner that coveted Olympia qualification, which had Fouad in tears backstage with the change to compete in his dream contest. [...]
In the first IFBB Tampa pro show that I can remember that has been held in Tampa, Florida, Toney Freeman barely won over a muscular Dennis James to win the Men’s Bodybuilding contest. Just how close was it. At the end of the third round, Toney and Dennis were tied, and the final comparison and [...]

It was a great contest, with Brandon Curry winning the overall, while Curtis Bryant took the second pro card slot. Edward Nunn, who won the Super Heavyweight class, looked like he would of had a great chance to get that second pro card, but didn’t, and he is now the favorite for the 2008 NPC [...]
