Some thoughts. Interesting results. Dani Reardon not in the Top 5. Jen Taylor snatching 2nd away from Heather Grace. Only a week ago, HG beat JT in Arizona. Sheronica Henton's star is rising. I thought Daniely Castilho would be in the Top 5. I'll be looking to see what the Top 15 looks like.

What happened to loud mouth George Brown????

[DoubleyaG]

Men's physique is so ridiculous. I literally can't even.

[DoubleyaG]

I want to constructively say the prize money is so disappointingly low considering the amount of time, energy, and money that goes into competing. I left the sport (I always sucked anyway) in 09 and really haven't paid much attention until I recently hired Heather Grace to do my diet.

I want to preface this by saying I'm not a self righteous crossfitter. Absolutely not, but I will say crossfit is an impressive business model. The athletes may want to look into and demand more from the IFBB.

The winners took home $285,000 respectively this year at the crossfit games.
Demand more or you'll never get it. I am
shocked to find out the prizes at the Olympia are so low.

Mr Olympia winner gets $400,000 I think the 212 Olympia winner gets a decent amount also but not sure.

That is serious incentive but what about the other categories?

This is another thread entirely so don't mind me. Lol Sorry. Didn't mean to hijack. Just want to see these athletes make more.

Crossfit is shown on sports TV & is sponsored by mainstream companies. Bodybuilding is not.

MR OLYMPIA POSING ROUTINES

ROELLY WINKLAAR: Better tonight.... freaky hard and striated. Waist looks better..... Brings the house down with his routine...... and most muscular poses

NATHAN DEASHA: One of the most improved bodybuilders onstage. Great structure.... small waist....... the future of the division for sure

SHAWN RHODEN: he's a different person...... abs are sharp; waist is small; water retention gone.......glutes ridiculously striated. let's see how much he moves up in the placings

[huge285]

JOSH LENARTOWICZ: huge back.....great arms and shoulders... thick pecs....... but there's a layer of water he's still holding. This is not close to JOSH's best.

CEDRIC MCMILLAN: holding tons of water still. no better than last night's prejudging.....but what an incredible poser he is....with amazing body awareness....... He's got all the tools; he can't seem to nail it for the Olympia
