Training - Arnold Sports Festival Roundup.

3/4 - presses, side swings, laterals -- P90X3M D51 Dynamix -- foam roll/smr

 Zydrunas Savickas takes the Arnold Strongman Classic for the 7th time. I was pulling for Brian Shaw, but Z BeastModed 3 events out of 5 and crushed a new world record at the tire deadlift.

2014 Arnold Strongman Classic Results - LIFT.net:

I still dig on Shaw.  We'll see what happens at this year's World's Strongest Man.

Bodybuilding.com - 2014 Arnold Sports Festival: Dennis Wolf Wins Arnold Classic:
Pro Bodybuilding can get ridiculous, but you can't argue wit dat back tho'.

Bodybuilding.com - 2014 Arnold Sports Festival: Flex Lewis Wins The Arnold Classic 212:
Lewis is jacked, but I like the aesthetics on Lukas Osladil.
Besides, dude can do this.  [Pic from a different competition.] 
Remember kids, lifting weights will make you muscle bound and inflexible.

Can't second guess the Fitness International, since half the scoring is the routine, which I didn't see.  Looks like Grishina crushed it.

Nah, my vote is Alicia Coates.

Strikes me as funny still that the current Figure, Physique and even Bikini competitors would've probably been competitive, if not outright winning, the first Women's Olympia in the 80s.  Kaltwasser is clearly super fit, but I don't get the judging criteria.  Hazards of purely subjective contests.

Alexander, Luyag or Gnarr all look sharper/better developed, imho.

Plus Gnarr gets bonus points for being a black belt/ass kicker.
