It is that time of the year again when almost every fitness enthusiast, coach, guru, pandit, fan, and even the competitors themselves are out giving Olympia winner predictions.
But to be honest, the people best equipped to give out predictions (after sorcerers, obviously) are the ones who have been unbiasedly following every athlete, competition, and jury throughout the year. In short, I mean – ahem-we-ahem are the best people to be giving out Olympia winner predictions.
I tried being humble. Did it work?
The 2021 Bodybuilders’ Disneyland aka Olympia Weekend is scheduled for October 7-10 live on Pay-Per-View (PPV) from Orlando, Florida. It’s less than a week away, and we cannot wait to see our favorite athletes battle it out for the top spot in their respective divisions.
With that said, we have mad respect for every athlete competing at the Olympia weekend. It takes years of hard work and persistence to earn a chance to compete at the prestigious Olympia weekend. It is the Olympics of bodybuilding, after all.
