April 19, 2012, Essen, Germany - Powerhouse Johnnie Jackson is having a great year so far. He won the FIBO Pro (checkout the new backstage pics), he placed second in Spain and grabbed another second place at the famous New York Pro behind rising star Cedric McMillan. So after more than 10 years on the IFBB Pro stages Johnnie is still going on very strong. This year could very well end up being the highlight of his awesome career.

April 19, 2012, Essen, Germany - The 2012 FIBO marked the final edition of the largest Fitness and Bodybuilding expo in the world in Essen Germany. Next year the show will open it`s doors in Cologne Germany. And you can bet the house that all of the top Stars of the sport will once again travel to Europe to meet fans and represent their sponsors. Hopefully many more stars will bring the same off-season quality that Evan Centopani brought this year. The other IFBB Pros should try to follow Evan´s example!

October 8, 2011, Madrid - After a second place in Spain (new pics up now!) at the first Arnold Classic Europe, 2008 Mr. Olympia Dexter Jackson went on to win the Masters Pro in Florida past December. Now Dexter prepares for the 2012 Arnold Classic in Columbus, OH and will try to win his 4th title. This would then be a tie with all-time Arnold Classic leader Flex Wheeler. Can the Blade do it? It won`t be easy with Branch Warren, Dennis Wolf and Evan Centopani all gunning for the victory but it`s possible!

March 1, 2008, Columbus, OH - 2008 must have been the best year in Dexter "The Blade" Jackson`s long and successful career. First he won the Arnold Classic (with Phil Heath in 2nd and Kai Greene in 3rd) and then he went on to win his Olympia title! We also had him win the Arnold (because Phil was not 100 % in Columbus). This year Dexter will be back and try to win one more Arnold Classic title which would tie him with Flex Wheeler for the record of four victories in Ohio!

October 8, 2011, Madrid - Right after Victor Martinez won the 2011 Arnold Europe he ran into major trouble at US immigration because his greencard / visa had expired! We wish him the best and hope he will be released as soon as possible with renewed greencard or US citizenship! Stay tuned to our Facebook page for continous updates on the story.

September 26, 2009 , Las Vegas, NV: The 2009 Olympia without a doubt was the most impressive 202 contest in Bodybuilding history and it will stay at the top forever because the IFBB switches to a 212 limit in this year. Daryl Gee in last place proves how amazing the overall quality was! We had Eduardo Correa and Mark Dugdale (in the best shape of his life) in number one and two (with awesome David Henry in close 3rd). With the new 212 class coming up we expect big things from Eduardo Correa in the future. The man has no weak points and always comes in shredded to the bone!
