Arnold Classic 09
I have just checked up on the pics and the Winners from the Arnold Classic. It is really interesting in the ‘figure internation’ which would be my category as a pro. Monica Brant looks in great shape and totally balanced and placed 6th. The top 1 and 2 look like they are much smaller on top with not much in delts and arms, the winner Zivile has just boosted her ‘assets’ and is enormous but her upper body still looks small in comparision to her legs. It is amazing to think she has placed first, when I met her 3 years ago in NY she had just turned pro. You can find her in my gallery IFBB PROS.

Today I trained with Jon and it was a fab session. Both of us had pumped arms, INCREDIBLE!! Again because I had a spot I was able to take my close grip bench up to 7.5kg a side for 12/10/8 supset with pushdowns, the rope pressdowns were really hard 8/8/8 drop. Incline sup curls with cable curls were strict and biceps ripping off the bone! and then the drop set 8/8/8 db hammer curls finished us off. Legs was great, 3 sets of 30 reps with the dumbells and very strict 2 x 12 reps with the seated leg curl. 30 mins on the incline treadmill, job done! Legs shaking, drinking glutamine!!!
