8th

Branch Warren

Branch Warren still possesses the "freak factor" and tree-trunk legs that have made him a household name in bodybuilding circles. His recent 2014 Europa Dallas win is proof he's still a force to be reckoned with. Despite incurring his share of injuries, Branch has competed every year of his pro career, and still managed to snag Olympia success. Branch came close to winning the Olympia in 2009, narrowly conceding the title to Jay Cutler. It would be tough for the battle-hardened veteran to win Olympia this year, but he has what it takes to at least place in the top ten.

7th

Roelly Winklaar

Netherlands native Roelly Winklaar is a mainstay in the top six of many contests he's competed in. Having won four pro shows, the massive Winklaar is difficult to overlook in any line-up. Perhaps not the most aesthetically-pleasing pro on today's circuit, Winklaar more than compensates with his impressively thick, dense muscularity. When he brings the kind of conditioning that wins shows, he's hard to bet against. At last year's Olympia, he showed up with a career-best look and claimed 7th place against the world's top bodybuilders. Winklaar is expected to put on another good showing at the 2014 Olympia.

6th

Dexter Jackson

Dexter Jackson is known for possessing a perfect combination of full, round muscle, super-shredded conditioning, and impressive aesthetics. Throughout his pro career, Jackson has earned 18 big wins, including four Arnold Classic victories and the Mr. Olympia title in 2008. Jackson is also known for his consistency: He brings virtually the same winning physique for each competitive outing. Many have speculated that the 15-year pro veteran must be due for retirement soon. However, recent photos of the 44-year-old contender show that "The Blade" is far from finished. Coming off an excellent 2013, Jackson is poised to place strongly in the mix at this year's Olympia.

5th

Mamdouh Elssbiay

With an IFBB pro record of two wins and one loss, as well as having a physique that looks permanently Photoshopped, Mamdouh Elssbiay—aka Big Ramy—is one pro many feel will win the Olympia sooner rather than later. With the possible exception of his calves—which may only appear small because they're dwarfed by the largest quads in Olympia history—Big Ramy appears to have no weaknesses. Plus, he possesses the largest assembly of muscles of any current pro. Should he present the ultra-shredded, grainy look that has so far eluded him, his immense muscularity should place him in the top six.

4th

Shawn Rhoden

Shawn Rhoden has quite a high placement pedigree. He clinched 3rd and 4th at the 2012 and 2013 Olympias, placed 2nd at this year's Arnold Classic, and won the 2014 Australian Pro Grand Prix. Stacked from head to toe with dense muscularity, Rhoden is always on point with his conditioning and possesses one of the most impressive V-tapers seen on any IFBB pro stage. Rhoden will undoubtedly continue to sharpen his tools as he edges closer to Olympia glory. Rhoden is a legitimate candidate for the top six, and should be very tough to beat.

3rd

Dennis Wolf

Dennis Wolf has placed in the top seven at 23 of his 25 pro shows since debuting at the Europa Supershow in 2006. Among the largest pros on today's scene, Wolf has finally found the perfect formula to give him that additional edge necessary to win big titles. Wolf came close to fulfilling his dream of capturing Olympia gold in 2013, and secured a solid win at the Arnold Classic earlier this year. The man known for his monstrous width will now be gunning for the top-two ranked contenders: Kai Greene and Phil Heath, both of whom will need to bring career-best physiques to keep Wolf from finally breaking through.

2nd

Phil Heath

Who can stop this man? Current Olympia champ Phil Heath is considered by many to have the most impressive physique ever to grace an Olympia stage. This three-time, back-to-back Olympia victor has made no secret of his intention to secure win number four. With no weaknesses and a phenomenal size for his 5-foot-9 frame, he is expected to steadfastly man his battle station. However, if Heath is even slightly off his game, another competitor could usurp bodybuilding's current king.

1st

Kai Greene

The legendary Kai Greene is always in contention for an Olympia win. With superior back and leg development, as well as a side chest shot that can't be touched, Greene's only limitation appears to be his conditioning. Though supremely on point for most of his outings, Kai has not yet captured that grainy, hard look that Heath has so magnificently displayed for each of his Olympia wins. Wider, rounder, and more muscular than Heath, Greene also possesses great proportion and symmetry. Few would have argued against his winning the title in 2013, but can he bring that extra detail needed to beat Heath in 2014?

IFBB pros Branch Warren & Johnnie Jackson train arms at Metroflex Arlington, 13 days out from the 2014 Mr. Olympia. This time around Branch is right where he needs to be at 2 weeks out. At this time last year he was fighting an uphill battle trying to get where he needed to be conditioning wise. In this video, Branch also talks about what he has to do differently than most people because of the extrememe heat at Metroflex.

IFBB Pro Juan "Diesel" Morel takes you through his second quad workout of the week at the East Coast MECCA, 13 days out from the 2014 Mr. Olympia. The workout is pretty tough with some heavy hack squats followed up by ascending sets on the leg press. Juan explains how he's really put size on his legs since 2009.

My decision to not do the Olympia this year started when I had a very bad injury on my back, which was around the time I had to make de decision whether or not I was going to compete at the Olympia. Plus, I have been super busy with my seminars and camps so I am trying to focus more them (I have done seminars and camps in nearly 20 different countries). And to top it all off, I am also planning my wedding. So, with so much going on I thought it would be best to sit out of this one.
