Will be interesting to see the criteria, whos your favorite to win?
I think Steve Cook takes the 2013 Olympia. With his overall aesthetic look and attitude he ought to take it easily. 2nd place going to Matt Christianer, 3rd to Mark Anthony, 4th Sadik Hadzovic, and 5th to Michael Anderson. Can't wait to see the physique division at the O!
Vote goes to Sadik. Nuts how huge these guys are and are still in Mens Physique

Sadik has a great V, but maybe too much

I agree, the guy hasn't done a show in a while either so the judges will not be used too his look like all of the other who have done multiple shows. I think Mark Anthony will come 2nd and the rest will be a toss up! Alex Caneiro will probably make top 5 but the poor guy just can't seem to win a pro show!

So with mens fitness physique competitions, is there a limit on muscle size. What is being judged mostly, muscle definition, symmetry, size? I would like to compete but don't know where to start!
Michael is such a nice guy check him out on Instagram
[QUOTE=Valerun;1084206593]Will be interesting to see the criteria, whos your favorite to win?[/QUOTE] Sadik should win I think, his shape meaning V taper is amazing , Steve Cook is my fav besides myself lol but watch out for this guy name Michael Anderson the guy is over 40 and is still beating guys and placeing at the top of most of his shows and even won a few.
I'm rooting for Steve cook, he's a big inspiration for me.
Watch out for this Jeremy Buendia kid who's coming. Won his pro card a week ago and just won the IFBB Greater Gulf States! Apparently the guy has never lost a physique show and never failed to win an overall

Good physique, but he's tiny (5'8")
This has to be Steve Cook's to loose - his personality, appearance, size and shape is what physique is all about.

This, don't think Steve Cook can be topped in this division. I know it's still very new and still being figured out, but Steve is everything that the physique judges are looking for. Outgoing, confident and energetic personality, enough size to hang with any other physique competitor yet still being aesthetic unlike some of the other physique competitors, and an overall strong presence on the stage. He seems to stand out more than all the others. Not to mention he's already won the most stacked pro show there's been so far. Beating Alex Carneiro, Sadik Hadzovic, Michael Anderson, and Anton Antipov already.

He has an amazing physique, but he may look small because of his height...
[QUOTE=Valerun;1084206593]Will be interesting to see the criteria, whos your favorite to win?[/QUOTE]
I'll take my boy @Maiseu Anton Antipov
[QUOTE=Lttype;1091561233]I'm rooting for Steve cook, he's a big inspiration for me.[/QUOTE]
Same, I am a big fan of Steve.
matt looked phenomenal in his last show (which he won)
Im not a big fan of mark Anthony but judges seem to love him
steve and matt will battle it out for 1 and 2, with mark and sadik fighting for 3 and 4.
Like any show, I guess it will depend on the conditioning that night.
I do agree that at 6'3" and with his quality mass, it's probably Cook's to win or lose.
But I think Sadik and Matt Christianer will give him some serious competition.
poll should be updated... heres all the official competitors
• Stephen Cook
• Matt Christianer
• Michael Anderson
• Mark Anthony Wingson
• Anton Antipov
• Sadik Hadzovic
• Matthew Acton
• Jeremy Buendia
• Troy Woodward
• John Nguyen
• Jeff Seid
these guys qualified by points and have not won any pro shows
• Tyler Anderson
• William Sullivan
• Alexandre Carneiro
• Jason Poston
• Stephen Mass
Still think steve is the favorite, im interested in seeing their criteria. all the guys have killer physiques, big fan of buendia.
top 5 predicition
1-steve cook
2-matt christianer
3-jeremy buendia
4-mark Anthony--(just my opinion on where he will place, I think troy deserves this spot)
5-sadik
also itll be interesting to see how seid places, since he probably has the largest following and is so young
this is sadik's for the taking
where's jeff seid
Its betwenn Sadik and Steve Cook.Sadik has best back/arms/shoulders by far , he will win for sure/
