New Animal Athlete, Roman Fritz, training for his big show, the Amateur Mr. Olympia in Prague on June 7, 2014. Roman Fritz, known for his meticulous prep and impressive conditioning, is looking to re-earn his IFBB Pro card. This 16-minute video shot at Fighting Bodies Gym covers it all, back, biceps and delts -- straight and unfiltered.

-90 kg tuleb korralik seltskond kokku. Pabiniak tuli just -95 kg euroopa meistriks, Koritensky on -85kg Arnold Classic võitja, Duduskin -100kg finalist MM -l (seejuures omal ajal võitis kehavooru punktidega ja vabakavaga tõmmati maha....vahepeal seal läks see hindamine 50/50). Bauer võitis Loaded Cup absoluudi 2 aastal järjest. Kuid ega oma vormgi kehva ole, seega eks kohale minnes võrdlustes näeb kes on kes.... .Motivatsioon veel kaks nädalat vormi parandada ja seal elu ehk üks parimaid pakette lauale panna.
