Two competitors going head to head in the Log Walk event

Defending champion, Chaar Chun Hou effortlessly blaze through the Log Walk event. Notice that the time keeper is running to keep up with him!

Friends and contestants congratulating Chaar Chun Hou for his amazing performance.

The star of Team Iron Behemoth, Samuel Lim pulling the Red Rhino to victory!

And here's another photo of Samu...Hey! You're blocking my view!!

Another member of Team Iron Behemoth and reader of Fabodylous, Ben Ho, putting full effort in pulling the Red Rhino

Look at that face of effort and never-say-die attitude!

Ben is so much bigger than me...

But I still must try to bring him down!! *push*

I'm not sure of his name, but I gotta reward this guy an "A" for effort. He tried to carry the iron logs for the Log Walk...
failed...

shook off the pain...

tried again...

and again...

and then he gave up.

Guess he could use some training with Samuel, seen here carrying the logs like grocery bags. Fyi, Samuel is friendly enough to give smiling lessons too! :D

Guy in red says, "Stay back guys! Wee Kiat looks big enough to beat up all of us!" Haha. I wish.

Hmm... Orange seems to be in fashion nowadays

Team Iron Behemoth


And finally...


Chaar Chun Hou thinks to himself, "Yes! My dream is finally coming true! I finally get to touch his head!"

"Oh shoot! I'm caught on camera! I'm screwed."

:D

I've just received bad news from a friend of mine that one of our young Singaporean bodybuilders has just passed away in a motorcycle accident.

His name is Muhammad Salleh bin Abdul Aziz and here are some photos and videos of him during his competitive days.








Singapore has certainly lost a budding young talent. Condolences go out to all friends and family of Salleh.

Oh No! Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein Has Shrunk!!

Share
Guys, do you notice something?

Optimum Nutrition has shrunken their 100% Whey Protein!! So now we're getting 79g less of it! Sigh.. And the price... is just S$0.30 less than before.


Plus!

They are now using a taller container!



Which means...

I can't store it in my usual supplement shelf because it's too tall!

Why are they using a taller container for LESS content?!




How could you do this to me, Optimum Nutrition?? Why?! Why?!

Look how loyal have I been to you guys!

*sob*

Muscle in the Media

Share
I saw a thread on a Singaporean forum and the topic was "Why do guys like to workout so much??" and well, my answer is, it's because of the media!

Yup, muscle is portrayed in everyday games, movies and tv.

Let's check out our famous brothers of iron!

Street Fighter


The Russian wrestler, Zangief.



Fei Long, the Hong Kong Kung Fu actor. Reminds you of someone in real life?

Disclaimer: Fabodylous doesn't condone hitting ladies.. unless it's in Street Fighter 4.

Ryu says, "Check out my biceps development!"

Who says only the guys have muscles? I bet Chun-Li can squat 500lbs!

Batman


Who knows? It might be Jay Cutler under that mask!

Superman


For your information, Brandon Routh gained 20lbs of muscle for his role as Superman in Superman Returns.

WWE


And here we have real life examples...


Batista

John Cena


And oh look! Triple H has his own training book!


The Incredible Hulk

All I need is some green paint and viola!


I say, "Hey dude, no offence, but your chest development is lagging behind your other bodyparts".


Hulk says,
RAAARRRRRRHHH!!!
