There's definitely some interesting names in there!

 

[Bio]

They're certainly not doing it for the money!

"As it stands, there is $229,000 on the line set to be divided among the 10 divisions."

Masters is over 35 or 40?

I believe it was originally 50+. Then they dropped to 40.

Although he won't make waves, this guy has a great story! I believe he worked with Shelby at one point.

A few names that jumped out to me, for various reasons: Josh Lenartowicz (sp), Darrem Charles, and Vincent Galanti

Good to see Josh competing again. It’ll be between him and max

David Henry for the 212

I have to say, I think a 40 year old cut off is a bit silly. How many Mr. Olympias have we had winning in their forties?

1. Chris Dickerson - 43 years old (1982)
2. Samir Bannout - 43 years old (1983)
3. Dexter Jackson - 43 years old (2015)
4. Ronnie Coleman - 41 years old (2004)
5. Dexter Jackson - 40 years old (2010)
6. Shawn Rhoden - 43 years old (2018)
7. Dexter Jackson - 42 years old (2012)
8. Ronnie Coleman - 42 years old (2002)
9. Lee Haney - 41 years old (1991)

Multiple wins:
Dexter Jackson: He won three times in his 40s, at the ages of 40 (2010), 42 (2012), and 43 (2015).
Ronnie Coleman: He won two times in his 40s, at the ages of 41 (2002) and 42 (2004).

That list is all messed up…

That list is all messed up…

I admit I used ChatGPT to summarize



I think GPOT-4 is more accurate:

As of my knowledge cutoff date in September 2021, there have been two Mr. Olympia winners over the age of 40 at the time of their win(s):

1. Chris Dickerson: He was born on August 25, 1939, and won Mr. Olympia in 1982 when he was 43 years old.
2. Shawn Rhoden: He was born on April 2, 1975, and won Mr. Olympia in 2018 when he was 43 years old.

Please note that there might be additional winners in this category since September 2021 or any changes in Mr. Olympia history that I am not aware of.

HM's point is still valid. 40 is kind of young for a Master's Olympia when we have plenty of 40 and 40+ top contenders throughout the years.

In 2015, Dexter(b. 1969) was 45 (turning 46 two months later)...still makes your point.
In 2004, Ronnie (b. 1964) was 40...still makes your point.
In 1991, Lee Haney (b. 1959) was 31 (turning 32 two months later).

 

[TheOtherOne55]

I understand that 40 isn’t necessarily old as we’ve had Olympia winners past that age, but it seems like the roster list is comprised of guys who have basically finished their BBing career. They aren’t running off seasons or prepping anymore. They’ve hung up their trunks and this is them giving it one last shot. Ronnie and Dexter were outliers, not the norm.

Either way, cool list. I’d love to see how Josh looks. He kinda had to give up his career due to that tumor scare and never quite got back into it after that. Always loved his physique.

 

[Hammer4]

There is a 0% chance he would compete at the masters but, good god, have yall seen Tom Platz recent update at 68? The man still has incredible legs for any age!!!

 

[AllOkJumpmaster]

Out of this list, I would have to guess the top competitors would be

• Fred Smalls, Joshua Lenartowicz, Maxx Charles

that is assuming Kamal would not be doing the masters?...?
