2008 Arnold Blog

I ran into Milos Sarcev (star of The FitShow here on Bodybuilding.com) at the M&F booth at the 2007 Arnold Expo, and asked him for a few predictions about the 2007 Arnold Classic.

Hear what Milos has to say about the myth of “peaking”, plus how he helped train Silvio Samuel and Hidetada Yamagishi recently!

I stopped in for a few minutes to watch the spectacle that is powerlifting.  Wow, what a show!  Under all the bright lights, cameras, and loud music was just a guy (Shawn Frankl, a big-a$$ guy, mind you!) trying to move some serious weight.

If you missed the show, check it out for yourself and see what you missed!

We spotted Olympic weightlifter, Shane Hamman at the iSatori booth at the 2007 Arnold Expo!

See what’s new with Shane, why he likes H+Blocker so much, and why even weightlifters should take fat burners…  LOL

Well, who knew?  IFBB Pro Bodybuilder, Bill Wilmore recommends goat whey!

Do you think this was for real, or did I have to slip him $20 on the low-low…??  LOL

We managed to squeeze in a very loud interview with James "Flex" Lewis at the Muscle & Fitness booth at the 2007 Arnold Expo.

See what’s in store for Flex and when his next competitions will be, and who he thought was going to win the Arnold Classic…

Take a look backstage and behind the scenes of the Arnold NPC competition. Ron and I venture into the pump up room, media room, the famous tunnel and more. The video is lengthy but will give you a number of looks at what the competitors go through backstage and what you don’t get to see from sitting in the audience.

Quincy Taylor was one of the largest people we encountered at the Arnold. He was working the Pinnacly Expo Booth and tells us he is weighing 360lbs! How big are his arms and does he visit getbig.com? These are some of the questions you’ll find the answers to in this video.
