The big man from the Middle East has only one professional bodybuilding competition under his belt, but already qualified for the 2013 Mr olympia, twice, Elssbiay will be an impact on stage this year.

Elssbiay returned to Egypt after winning the 2013 New York Pro in order to spend time with family and friends. After a short but meaningful stay, Elssbiay returned to Kuwait in order to prepare for the biggest contest of his career – The 2013 Mr Olympia. Leaving nothing to chance, Elssbiay lives, eats and sleeps bodybuilding. He lives on the top floor of the gym where he eats his meals and trains.

Predictions on the message boards and FaceBook have Elssbiay placing out of the Top 15 all the way up to placing in the top 3 and some boldy have Elssbiay winning. Ultimately it comes down to Mamdouh Elssbiay and the judges. Elssbiay knows it's solely up to him and his coach IFBB Pro Dennis James, and even then, only time will tell.
