Olympia Outlook 2012
By Siberiantiger
In four weeks in Las Vegas held the biggest show in professional bodybuilding. An armada of the best pro bodybuilders in the world will compete for the title of Mr. Olympia. And like every year we expect new superlative: The surface on which propagates the accompanying Expo will be doubled, so that the visitors can admire more than 45000m ² all facets of the iron game. Also, the prize money will rise again, so that in the open men's class will be awarded a total of $ 650,000 in prize money, of which 250,000 for the winner.
Want to cash this check, of course, the reigning Mr. Olympia Phil "The Gift" Heath snaffle. He is certainly as the top favorite in the title race. 2011, he shocked the bodybuilding world with a crazy shape that even experienced athletes staggered like Dorian Yates and Kevin Levrone in disbelief. Described at the beginning of Phil's career his back and his chest as glaring weaknesses, so nothing more was seen. Despite its relatively narrow clavicles, he created an illusion of width that was in conjunction with the countless details of conditioning that was absolutely on point and his ridiculously out plop muscles simply unbeatable. This year, Phil wants to compete in his own words a piece solid. If he succeeds, he will hardly be beat, because his form he has been missing ever and also the competition occurs at this time not against Phil Heath, they shall come against the 13th Mr. Olympia, a factor that should not be underestimated.
Will not attend last year's Second, the four-time Mr. Olympia and "foster father" of Phil, Jay Cutler. A few days ago, he confirmed that he will expose this year, as his work commitments have prevented the 100% focused preparation. And that he would urgently needed because it did last year, his second place was far from uncontroversial, which was due not only to his damaged biceps. Be aiming to take back the title of Phil and to repeat it, which succeeded in 2009, he had used a similar shape to this year. Jay plans to return in 2013, if this is really the case, time will tell.
After the failure of Jay can be troubling to a duel between Phil and Kai Greene. The Predator must surely be regarded as the most serious competitor to Phil. Even last year he would have had in the eyes of many to get the second place, this time he wants to finally defeat his trauma: Otherwise known for his razor-sharp definition, he has never made it this form to the stage at the convention center to bring. Should he succeed, it will result in a highly exciting fight, because Kai brings everything a Mr. Olympia needs.
Exciting would be the battle for third place. Branch Warren had to suspend last year due to injury and then celebrated in Columbus at the Arnold Classic a umjubelndes comeback. Equipped to be expected with two of the legs well freakigsten Pro League must be the two-time Arnold Classic winner and crowd favorite.
One that probably burns the most out Branch to leave behind is likely to be the big bad wolf. Twice Dennis Wolf had last beaten Branch, especially not in 2012 without controversy. Dennis is the proper body forth the stark opposite of Branch: Equipped with ridiculously wide clavicles is the area occupied by his upper body just phenomenal. If it succeeded to compensate for its weaknesses in the lower body (hamstrings and calves), which is a hot dance with Branch.
Another top athlete who will not participate in this year's Victor Martinez. Due to several months of detention by the immigration authorities of the United States upon entry after winning the Arnold Classic Europe 2011, Victor lost massive weight and is currently under construction again. Although he claims to have been able to regain a considerable mass, but the O is just too early, so he wants to concentrate on the Arnold Classic 2013th
The athlete who is most likely to take Victor's place in the final, is Evan Centopani. At the Arnold Classic, he was just third behind Dennis. Evan is a young athlete with an impressive crowd. If he has balanced his chest deficit and agree the conditioning, he could create an uproar.
Have often written off, but then rose again like a phoenix from the ashes, is Dexter "The Blade" Jackson. The Mr. Olympia of 2008 is the athlete in the field, who brings the most experience. When Dexter takes a form as in the Masters last year, a final placement is absolutely within reach.
Also, Ronny "The Rock" Rockel now belongs more to the old guard. Last year he missed his best form and had the first time in years without final placement drive home. After his qualification at the Arnold Classic Europe, he took the first big offseason for years. It will be interesting to watch how this has had an effect. At his best he is in any case be able to a number of emerging young stars behind and to get a place in the top 6th
That this is not automatic, it is a whole bunch of athletes make. Last two wins in Tampa and Dallas, Shawn has "Flexatron" Rhodes a run and will speculate with great certainty to a position in the top 10, if not more. And he has good reason to be, but he showed in two shows a fantastic shape that emphasized his beautiful line profit. It will be interesting, as it is in the duel with the big hits when he takes because, because after the end of the collaboration with its sponsor QNT is a participation is not 100% secure.
One of the most gifted talents in the Pro League surely heard the Frenchman Lionel Beyeke. With a win at the FLEX Pro he secured early in the year of his qualification for the O. Lionel. Whatever it takes to get a really big one to be in this sport, but must also fit the conditioning and the fact it has failed so far unfortunately That's enough for the FLEX Pro, for O is not that rich.
Another emerging talent is Canadian Ben "Pakman" Pakulski, the man with the most current irrwitzigsten legs of the professional scene, and probably the most blatant counterpart Lionel. This year, still without a win, Ben is qualified sure about the points rule. The combination of brutal legs with its incredible hardness likely some competitors headache.
After his win in New York and Cedric McMillan will squint on to finish in the top 10. Cedric is an extremely aesthetic athlete to top the group lacking only the necessary mass. In top form but he would certainly be a candidate for the top places.
Along with Dexter and Ronny Toney Freeman belongs to the oldies on the tour. But the "X-Man" written off would be a mistake, he has often proved. He is also qualified sure about the points rule.
Sure there is Johnnie Jackson, who secured his qualification at the FIBO Power. The man with perhaps the best trapezius muscles of the entire Pro League and ridiculously massive pecs but will not be overlooked because of its weakness in the legs barely fight for the top places.
A similar fate is likely to expect the Greeks Michael Kefalianos. The winner of the Mr. Europe Pro is an extremely aesthetic athlete who, when he brings his top form, can come up with a razor-sharp conditioning. It is this last, unfortunately, he often miss, also in the past presentation weaknesses often prevented a better result.
The last, already safely qualified athlete Bill Wilmore, who won the Toronto Pro, but in Las Vegas would have little chance of a place in the top 10.
After three athletes on the control points would certainly have qualified, the decision on which two athletes can secure the two remaining places, fall in Lahti, Finland, where at 08 September the Nordic Pro Championships take place. The winner can secure direct qualification, the runner up will receive 4 points, third place 3, fourth place 2 and the fifth-placed 1 point.
With 7 points Hidetada Yamagishi is currently the third point. The little Japanese inspired recently in Dallas with a great conditioning and had some much more massive athletes behind.
The two Americans John Delarosa and Fred Smalls, who are tied with 6 points in fourth place do not participate in Lahti, both of which will probably cost her qualifications.
Also, sixth place is currently occupied by two athletes who have 5 points each on the account: Grigori Atoyan, who will not compete in Lahti and Balto Abbaspour, who will fight in Finland to his qualifications.
The last athlete who can calculate mathematical chance of qualifying, the four eight-placed Sergey Shelestov, Mohammas Bannout, Roelly Winklaar and Steve Kuclo, who have all 4 points on the account. Except for Steve all athletes in Finland will try to seize the last chance to qualify even at the last minute for the Mr. Olympia.
