Why would people want to pay to see a bodybuilder who has an "achievable " look. An IFBB pro should stand out in a crowd but now since a million people turn "pro" every year it is diluting what used to be a prestigious honor and title.

Sounds good but will they actually follow through with the downsizing

Taking this the way it reads, this does not include bodybuilding (men's open and 212, as well as FBBing) or fitness, for that matter.

"and they will be liable to disciplinary measures."

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is that.

This is from 11/5 and the 'epic' agreement between the two was long after this. Why this thing is making the rounds now (thanks, Shawn Ray) is ridiculous.

I just got some more info this morning on this IFBB press release and have to reach out to one more additional party in regards. It's more of a 'left hand - right hand' thing.

I've got a LOT I plan to say about this in due time, but I like this statement a lot.
