Member 4760, 203 posts | I assume Eddie as well. If Z's back isn't better I wouldn't be surprised if he decided not to compete in the Arnold's. I'd bet he wants another WSM title rather than another Arnold (since he's won it 7 times). | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | I am pretty sure Mike Burke has retired so won't be going. | ||

I'd bet he wants another WSM title rather than another Arnold (since he's won it 7 times). His back will be fine, it was only a slight niggle by the looks of things. He still did a 380x5 deficit deadlift..hardly the sign of a broken back. He also competed before and after the comp with heavy weights. | ||

 Sugdens 'man' at WSM 2021 Member 1513, 2139 posts SQ 224.5, BP 181, DL 276.5682.0 kgs @ 120kgs UnEq | Alexander Lysenko got first at the amature show last year so he should have an invite too. | ||

 embarrasingly poor bench Member 2684, 4043 posts SQ 240, BP 135, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Benni and warrick brant maybe as they were there this year? Pritchett will probably be there too, especially if Burke has retired as there are usually a few Americans there. | ||

 Member 5141, 4205 posts SQ 300, BP 180, DL 350830.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq | Id expect another American, though not sure who, pritchett seems the likely choice, or Oberst. I dont think Benni will be there, he seemed a bit out of his depth last year. Savatinov and the guy who wears the beret (whos name i wont attempt to spell) also seem likely candidates to me. | ||

Please insult me further!! Member 5626, 92 posts SQ 165, BP 110, DL 210485.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Why make the Yoke even heavier when only Shaw and Z completed it last year??? Is this televised? | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5207 posts | Big Z will win his 8th Arnold. Brian second and Ed third for me. | ||

 tight in the hole Member 2057, 3121 posts SQ 205, BP 140, DL 260605.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 06.01.2016 @ 13:56 PM by Simeon Will be very interesting to see Ed v Brian on a regular(ish) deadlift.700kg yoke... WHY?! Also I'm not so sure Z will win this. Brian will most likely beat him on deadlift, and Thor could possibly come between them. He'll match Z on dumbbell, and yoke and frame could go either way I think | ||
