I mean what else can she try? She would have to do a massive upper slim down in tandem with blowing up her lats even more so she doesn’t have to play the angles like wpd competitors with zero chest dev
I think aside from WBB the judging has been all over. A lot of comments I’ve seen about Brooke placing fourth and last year a Sarah getting notes that might have cost her the win.
also a weird note when Brooke does her ab thigh on stage it’s NOT as cut as she can get. Wish she showcased them More when other girls are going hard on the cuts
Btw, i unironically think that Emily could have walked on stage and placed better than Michaela.
A competitor can't show up with a different set of genetics. That's not how it works. A person can train and try to bring up their weaknesses, but no one can outrun their genetic potential.
During Iris' reign, every other competitor knew that - at HER (Iris') best - Iris was pretty much unbeatable, so they needed her to make a mistake or come in "off".
I was not able to watch this year's show and haven't seen photos yet, but when I saw the little mini-clip of Andrea posing, it was clear the title would most likely be hers to lose.
Yeah Andrea look EXCELLENT. Totally different look from last year. Big gap between 1-2 though. If she showed up like last year it would’ve been a toss up.
I don’t think Michaela made any errors in prep. Neither did 5 other women unfortunately for her.

I can agree with this. I never know what the judges are looking for in other divisions. Kind of why I'm surprised Sarah beat Natalia this year.
Michaela just doesnt have 'good' genetics so to speak. Shes massive..sure, but theres more to genetics than responding to gear and getting plain huge. IE her legs..the quads are flat an have no nice sweep to them. Hard work an drugs only get you so far when its against the best of the best. If it weren't that way..every guy an his dog could be on Mr olympia stages. But it isn't soooo...
My first time attending the Olympia. I had an awesome time.

Hey guys!
This might be off topic a little bit, but does anyone know why Natalya Kovalyova deleted her IG all of a sudden? Is it because something happened at the Olympia?
At the Olympia expo I ran into this massive Brazilian girl named Dafne(Daphney/Daphne) on Saturday. I started conversation bumbled through Spanish (because I can't speak Portuguese) and found out she's from Sao Paulo. Does anyone know more about her? She has to be taller than 5'10 and is incredibly muscular. She was wearing a wonder woman workout outfit red top blue star-spangled shorts.

I have heard about her ,i guess ,but don't remember exactly, is she 22-23 years old??
Let’s keep this focused on the Olympia and the stage. We do have a requests sub forum Lso
It appears to me that the organizers did a reset on the judging criteria for fitness. Oksana Grishina won again, and she's noted for her artistic athleticism, grace and memorable performances. The second place finisher was in a similar vein - a less visibly muscular woman. Now I love Missy Truscott's physique, but if I'm right then physiques like hers have been deemphasized in fitness judging at the Olympia. I don't follow judging criteria closely, but I think this has happened every few years.

Missy got injured during her performance at the Olympia.
Missy won physique but she got injured during her routine
Jodi placed second in phsique but her routine wasn't too great in grade by the judges so she fell.
Without the injury I think Missy wins

Without the injury she would have definitely placed. Honestly I think there needs to be changes made on the judging and rules for the Olympia.
They gotta account for what they’ve seen unless someone comes out and breaks something in the first 5 seconds. One can hope
They’re dieted like figure but required to do high skills on a serious depletion which is wild
I was looking back and she has consistantly placed 6th overall for 3 years i believe, like yall say may be time to try things a litlle differently
