Wait, lee Thompson?...
Phil's buddy? Mr. "Kai's traps are too big?"
"Transparency?"


I want to believe. I mean it can't get any worse right? Sharing revenue with the athletes will hopefully cause them to hype up shows more and release more videos. Also curious as to whether kai approves of his name being used so much in the video (and Arnold's).

Conspiracy: lee worked to discredit the ifbb ising kai as a martyr, and will now use kai as a posterboy for this new organization

As the physique industry and its associated subsidiaries progress further into the 21st century, there have been differences as to how to move forward in a PROGRESSIVE and EVOLUTIONARY manner. Sooner than I would have anticipated, the demands of the athletes, the fans, the sponsors and the future have come calling. I, the ‪#‎NPCTexas‬ and the ‪#‎Nspire‬ COMMUNITY are ready to answer that call.

Our COMMUNITY vision; to create a SHARED ECONOMY by rewarding the athletes and to provide the TRANSPARENCY of the process by which they COMPETE. It is the ATHLETES who sacrifice so much to make this business and lifestyle so great. Together, we UNITE to create our own RULES by which we will LIVE in a state of UTOPIA.

I, my wife Jennifer Thompson, our entire Thompson Muscle Contest and Nspire Physique Championship Amateur/Pro League – wish the very best in their pursuit of EXCELLENCE to all the amazing athletes taking to the stage this weekend in Las Vegas, NV. And to those athletes around the GLOBE, we WELCOME you to our NPC Global League. IT'S HOW WE LIVE. - Thompson

Did they catch the feels for Kai?

[NVious]

Instead of Heath's reign we'll have Branch winning the O and Cedric will naturally be banned from the organization.

-Lee thompson says he was planning a new organization, but the kai thing has prompted him to start it now (way ahead of his original plan) pro and am-bb physique etc.
-States they will share revenue with athletes*** this is their big allure
-Judging will be transparent
-He will not go to olympia at all this year
Supports kai, agrees with Arnold's past complaint of judges
Nov 8 at muscle beach they will announce "framework"
-new organization is called NPC (Nspire physique committee)


Did I understand correctly that they will allow their athletes to compete with other organizations too?
Hopefully he isn't a slimeball opportunist, this could be great, with several icons available to support it right away. I hope they don't completely push away from mass monsters though, that's still my sole reason for watching BB. But if kai is a spokesman for them then I'm excited.
In4 kai response
In4 lee priest response...
In4 the first NPC (new NPC) subforum (not really)

@hyruliangoat-I know who he is, but I thought he'd be happy with the ifbb as he seemed to have been part of the problem

News bomb after news bomb, what the hell is going right now with the upper echelon of the ifbb?

Just to add,

NPC, in Lee's federation's case, doesn't stand for National Physique Committee.

NPC stands for Nspire Physique Championships.

[JIsaiahE]

Not to jump the gun, but this whole Kai situation seems to be a catalyst for some changes in the top amateur/pro scene

[Ragana]

This dude is Phil's business partner.. the **** is going on?

And LOL at anyone thinking that Kai skipped the Olympia on his own behalf if his absence is causing the guy with the most pull to flat out quit the organization.

[RoroCwalker]

There's so much going on, it almost feels like it's all scripted.

2015 Mr.O is setting up to be one of the worst/weirdest O's to date?

2015 is the year of the revolution?

An IFBB version of the Arab Spring?

[hindustani]

Lee thompson was involved in sexual harassment case http://muscleandbrawn.com/the-lee-th...al-harassment/

[blindsideflank]

Kind of makes these funny...


Part of the problem?


RIP

Yeah definitely confusing as hell.

Only YOU can say that Roro. Heheheh.

...although it's pretty rare, people do have genuine 'conversion' experiences, maybe this is one of them? otherwise I'm completely confused.

Don't know if that was best acronym to use for the new organization.. I can't see how that won't lead to mass confusion and legal problems.


A lot of exciting changes going on in the sport right now. I'd love to see Kai as the face of Lee's project but it seems like he's only doing so to capitalize on ****storm and major publicity surrouning him going on right now, especially seeing how this is the same guy who is partnered in the Phil Heath classic, amongst other business ties with Phil

[Fairfax]

Big Ramy wins?

Then who will be the IFBB refugees?

The name is honestly horrid.. this whole "cute spin on words" **** has to end. Could of made it United Physique Committee, International Physique Committee, etc...

Regardless, best of luck, as IFBB has to go. Never seen a more pathetic and rigged sports organization in the world; they make FIFA look like the Gates Foundation.

[MrMetabolism]

hopefully he isn't a slimeball opportunist

lol

[nonamewut]

Then who will be the IFBB refugees?

all the supp companies goes to chit so they cant sponsor people anymore, making the previously sponsored 'athletes' turn to g4p, they are the refugees

[BackDouble]

At the very least he's saying all the right things, especially with his idea of having shared revenue. Hopefully some big name dudes will compete there.

Would also be great if Arnold could put his name behind it, but that's unlikely since he has spent so much time and money investing in his Ifbb Arnold Classic series of shows.

[littlemike23]

Jesus there is so much weird an random shiit going on in pro bodybuilding right now. It's like a bad reality series

[AnarkyLost]

**** I've been ignoring this forum and the sport...this actually may bring me back in. I might even start working out again haha. Let's see where it goes. (Not out of shape I work outdoors just don't have gym muscle anymore)

[tng83]

I think that some legit competition is exactly what the IFBB needs to get back on track. Good ole healthy capatilistic competition.

[Loctus]

NPC, Nspire Physique Championships????

Inb4 lawsuit


what the **** did he pick that name for lol

[Animaul]

Crazy, crazy times indeed. I hope Lee Thompson's intentions are not malicious. Its all good everyone wants to make a dollar but hope he can pull this off and produce a quality show. I wouldnt be suprised if the IFBB try to trademark bodybuilding or try and pull a stunt like that lol those blood suckers would do anything to ensure their money cow is not compromised. IFBB is outdated and bascially operates like a poor mans mafia.

[Kiwi_]

Highly dubious..

[Devils]

This, brb ifbb basically having a monopoly on bodybuilding for the last 30 years, banning athlete's who compete in other organizations, penalising competitors for doing what they love, corrupt judging, its a welcome change for some competition
