Legends such as Franco Columbo, Jay Cutler, Ronnie Coleman and Arnold Swhwarzenegger. Due to momentous occasion before the contest began it made a point to pay tribute to the legends who made 50th olympia possible they took the stage before kicking things off for the night.
As for the 17 competitors on the hunt for the title of Mr. Olympia Dominance of Heath and Greene most figured and intense in recent years.
The rivalry between the two has been the headline act of the sport for the better part of the past three years since Heath began winning his tittles. The past two shows undoubtedly crushing blow as Green wound up as the runner-up .The difference between the two so minuscule and the final decision left in the hands of the judges.
The two were throwing jobs at one another as always at the entertaining press conference before the big competition Heath spoke before the event about the adjustments in order to fend the competition that painted a target on his back as captured By Roger Lockridge.
" Every year is different. No prep is the same. We see different weaknesses and body parts to bring up. I change the diet. My trainer and I make adjustments all the time, and we had to change a lot. The cardio that worked last year didn't work this year. Same with training, so we changed it.
I actually enjoy the prep because I know how to execute, and many guys don't know how to do that. And I go by fact: I won every Olympia with a perfect score."
After the 17 competitors ran thier place three obvious names wer called Dennis Wolf, Heat and Greene were called to the forefront in the first call-out.
Rhoden was one shocker as a pro bodybuilder Layne Norton noted during the call-outs Rhoden and wolf fighting for the spot behind the top two.
Marketing perspective i think Phil Heath is a good ambassador of the sport as his the best bodybuilder out of 17 competitors and won the tittle four times. As this is a good promotion for his new company gifted nutrition. And for the Olympia federation.
