2009 Mr Olympia - all you need to know!
Found these online, I had a chance to watch a part of the webcast last night. I think that the big surprise was Branch Warren - he looked chiseled with great conditioning, could be good for a top 5 this year.
Personally I think Jay has it - he is clearly larger than Dex and if they go after the aesthetic portion at all then Dex has more of a turtle shell than Jay does. Both are in great shape though so it is anyone's titleASC 105 Kg Pro Strongman | My Website | Facebook Fan Page

I agree Tom. I think Jay has it right now. Got see who comes in full and dry tonight. Could still go either way. I can't believe how off Wolf came in to the show. Piss poor showing.

I also think Alves physique is awesome. Old school looking. He would have kicked butt in the days before the mass monters took over the stage.

Jay is looking amazing in those pictures. Never was a big fan of him, but I think he has dexter beat.

Thanks for the pics Tom! IMO, it's gonna be tough call. I think both guys are looking really good. Jays legs look crazy!!! Good luck to both of them.
Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory.

Heath standing alone looks like Mr. Olympia, but put his next to the other guys and he just isn't as wide. Like a cartoon character though.

Until he hits that side chest, Heath looks to be holding just a bit of water still.
I'm sure the most difficult thing is staying like this for more than one day.
Jay looks light years better than he did last year.
Kai looks pretty good as well. Not quite on par with Jay, but certainly looks good.
Branch's splintered thighs are just nasty.

The 202s look good too. Henry is a thick dude. Kevin English worked at my old gym. Nice guy. Short but big!

Dugdale is looking thick and shredded. Given Kevin and Henry a run. Might be in first. Big and shredded.

At what point in bodybuilding history did wood-varnish become the must-have prep item?
I know a tan helps definition but some of those guys look absolutely ridiculous. As you can probably tell, I don't usually watch body-building shows.

Now we are talking. CP you are right, alone Phil does look like Mr. O. One day he will be. I really thought Kai was going to get it this year, but Jay made a comeback like Ronnie did in 02 I believe. In the pictures with them posing next to each other, it seems like Dexter even knows Jay might have it. Will be interesting to see how today pans out. CP, that guy in the middle of the 202 lineup, Darryl Gee weights in at 175 lbs. He is holding his own. How is Stan McQuay looking in the 202?

Yeah Gee won his pro card as a middle weight. Great physique. Stan looks ok. Not in the same class as the top 7 or so guys.

Eduardo Correa and Flex Lewis are also looking great in the 202
Flex - calves are like bowling pins.

It already happened. Jackson spanked White.
Jackson benched 523 and pulled 815
White benched 573 and pulled 633
I was told that both wore some kind of single ply shirt, like a blast shirt or something, which doesn't really do much so I'm not sure why even bother with that.

No surprise Jay won it tonight. Dexter got ripped off big time IMO though.

The final results:
1. Jay Cutler
2. Branch Warren
3. Dexter Jackson
4. Kai Greene
5. Phil Heath
6. Victor Martinez
I think that the judging was fair. Branch looked great; and Dexter had very poor sportmanship refusing to even shake his hand (but I guess we should expect that).
Congrats to Jay, he is the only Mr. Olympia to lose the title and then come back and reclaim it.ASC 105 Kg Pro Strongman | My Website | Facebook Fan Page
