Read articleIFBB Pro Bodybuilding hasn't had a show held in Chicago in about 20 years, when the Olympia was held there, so the city is excited to once again bear witness to this display of male and female muscle on July 7th. True fans should take note that this is one of the largest women's bodybuilding contests in many years with 18 IFBB Professional Women Bodybuilders registered to compete.
This is the first time Erik Fankhouser is stepping back on stage since 2010. Erik changed his workouts as well as his diet and has been solely focused on redeeming himself in 2012. Fred Smalls will also be competing. Fred jumped straight from the amateur ranks to placing 3rd at the Europa Battle of Champions. Erik and Fred, along with the other 10 men in the lineup, are looking for first place.
In addition to the Big Boys, I am looking forward to the mini-Titan battle between Ahmad Ahmad and Derik Farnsworth. Always an entertaining competitor, Derik's been hitting it hard so let's see how that's paid off.
Flex Magazine and I, accompanied by the FlexOnline.com crew, will be covering this contest. We'll be providing video and pictures. So follow along right here!
