"Trained arms today with my boy Victor Martinez... He has put back on 40+ pounds since his release from jail."
40pfund ganz ordentlich für die kurze Zeit ^^
Der Asiate sieht aus wieder Hundeflüsterer.
Da hat er ja wieder ordentlich raufgepackt. :)
"I'm doing the Olympia!"Nobody thought he would actually do it. Victor Martinez had been dropping hints and saying he was taking things week by week as far as his decision to compete in this year's Mr. Olympia contest, but it seemed highly unlikely. The man had been locked up for seven months without access to decent food, weights, or any supplements. He dropped down to 220 pounds, the lightest he had been since he was a teenager. Meanwhile, the other top contenders for the O like Phil, Kai, Branch, Wolf, and Evan were putting away mountains of steaks, chicken breasts, and blasting away at the weights. Phil and Kai took the whole year off competing and used all that time and more to build even more insane, dense muscle mass. Branch, Wolf, and Evan all managed to squeeze in an off-season and a diet for the Arnold, then another brief off-season before launching into Olympia prep. Victor is in a completely different situation from any other man entering this year's big show.
Victor Martinez makes a surprising announcement
Exclusive Muscular Development interview by Ron Harris
Today, at 15 1/2 weeks out from the Mr. Olympia, he is still re-gaining the muscle that he lost while in jail until April 27 of this year. Every other man is coming down from his off-season bodyweight, while Victor is still gaining. It's crazy, but that's how the old-school men like Arnold did it almost 40 years ago. But beating the odds is kind of Victor's thing, isn't it? The day it was announced that he was throwing his hat in the ring for the 2012 Mr. Olympia, I had to get him on the line and find out how this decision was made and why.
MD: Victor, exactly when did you decide you would go for it, and what were the main factors that influenced your decision?
VM: The decision was more like a process that's been going on in my head almost from the day I got out at the end of April. What it really came down to was that I just wouldn't feel right skipping the Olympia even if the odds are against me. I've never let that stop me from doing anything before and I didn't want to start now.
MD: Just so people know, when was the deadline for qualified competitors to sign the Olympia contract?
VM: It was a couple weeks ago and I won't lie - I was reluctant to sign it and make that commitment. My main concern isn't gaining the muscle back in time, it's the quality of the muscle. You got Phil, Kai, Branch, Wolf; these are all tough competitors and I don't underestimate them or what they're going to bring.
MD: What is your current weight and how lean are you? Are you still putting size on, and do you feel like due to the extended break you had, you might actually be making new gains in mass over the next few weeks?
VM: I'm 262, so that means I've put on 42 pounds in the seven weeks since I got out. Do the math! Six pounds of muscle a week on average. Can I get bigger than ever before? I don't know. If I wasn't going to be dieting hard for the Olympia I think that would be possible. But for me to say I'm going to be in condition and bigger than ever before, especially under the circumstances - no, I wouldn't make some crazy prediction like that.
MD: The old-school guys like Arnold used to stay lighter in the off-season and 'eat up' to shows, gaining weight over the prep and getting leaner. Most guys obviously get as huge and heavy as possible these days and then diet down. You would be the first pro I know since Levrone retired to even attempt the old-school way. Have you talked to Kevin at all, or anyone about this? It has to be your first time prepping this way, right?
VM: I haven't talked to anyone. It's all trial and error. But I'm feeling great and I have more energy than I've had in a long time too. I'm really not dieting exactly. I'm eating clean and gaining.
MD: Do you think you'll keep gaining for a few more weeks? Like maybe, until you are 8-10 weeks out?
VM: Sure, it's possible. I need to keep gaining, because I look in the mirror and I still don't see the thickness and fullness in the muscles that I want yet, never mind the detail and quality. I have my work cut out for me these next 15 weeks for sure.
MD: Are you worried about what it would do to your reputation if you placed any lower than last year, which was fourth? Or do you feel like no one even expects you to do that well anyway, given the circumstances?
VM: I would never have signed that contract if I didn't think I was capable of doing at least as good as I did last year if not better. But like you said, I know a lot of people will be writing off my chances this time and that's cool. I love proving people wrong. It's fun for me.
MD: I assume you will also be returning to Madrid to defend your Arnold Classic Europe title. Will you also be going to India again for the Sheru Classic?
VM: Not sure about that. It's a really long trip there and back and it's in between the Olympia and the Arnold Europe. I did it last year, but it was tough. We'll see, but right now the only two shows I am planning on are the Olympia and the Arnold Europe.
MD: You've never prepared for a show after having so much complete rest before. How do you feel mentally and physically now at just over 15 weeks out as compared to how you would normally feel?
VM: I do feel good like I said, but I'm still playing catch-up. Normally right now I would be about 275. But I would also be starting to diet too. This is a totally different scenario than I've ever tried before and I'm really just taking it one day at a time, training my ass off and eating a lot of good food. Stay tuned!

VIC IS OUT!
Posted on RX
"IFBB Pro Victor Martinez has been out of lock up for a little more than 3 months and has already gained back a tremendous amount of size. I saw him this past weekend at the IFBB PBW Tampa Pro show and, by the looks of him, you’d never know he recently spent the better part of 2012 behind bars. However, with the 2012 Mr. Olympia only 7 weeks away, it still doesn't look as if Victor should be putting his physique on the line by competing in the O. Last year, Victor took 4th place at the 2011 Mr. Olympia in Las Vegas. Over the last six years, Victor has placed in the top six 5 times. Even more remarkable, Victor has never placed out of the top 10 at the Olympia. I am mentioning these statistics to demonstrate the level of excellence that Victor has to live up to. Victor said that one of the main reasons he was at the Tampa Pro show was to “see my fellow competitors”, and see if he’s close enough to do damage at the Olympia.
At the Tampa Pro, Victor came by and said hi to Darielle and myself and, as good as Victor is already looking, I assumed he wasn’t competing in the Olympia. I asked him if he was planning on waiting until the Arnold in 2013 and he said it looks that way. I honestly didn’t think that much of Victor’s answer till I saw his video interview with Dan Solomon in which Victor alluded to not competing but was still non-committal.
I think Victor’s decision to hold off on competing in 2012 is a smart one. Even though Victor has fought through some amazing obstacles, anything less than a top 6 finish would be a tremendous disappointment. As he states in his interview with Dan, “I have gained back the 50 pounds that I lost, but the weight I gained back isn’t the same quality.” I think that with another 6 months of solidifying those gains, and we might just see the best Victor Martinez ever!
Angeblich hat sich Victor auf einer Expo in Mexiko bei einem harmlosen Armdrücken mit einem Fan den Arm gebrochen...
:lol:
Das istn Witz, oder?
And the Darwin Award 2012 goes to...
Ist das bitter :S
Oh man.. deshalb mache ich auch mit keinem mehr Armdrücken..
Der hätte sich mal hier im Forum anmelden sollen. Hier gibt es genug Berichte über Leute, die sich beim Armdrücken verletzt haben.
Victor wurde gestern in Los Angeles im UCLA Hospital operiert, der Eingriff dauerte ca. drei Stunden. Angeblich handelte es sich um eine Spiralfraktur des Humerusknochens im rechten Oberarm. Die Fraktur wurde mit Metallplatten fixiert, Victor muss nun mindestens sechs Wochen am ganzen Arm einen Gipsverband tragen, der den Unterarm und Oberarm im Winkel von 90 Grad fixiert. Morgen früh soll er bereits entlassen werden.
Der arme kerl :(
Im Artikel wird gegen Ende hin geschrieben, dass es geplant sein könnte damit das ganze noch "echter" rüberkommt, wobei martinez davon nichts wussze. Bin grad mim Handy und kann dad jetzt nicht so schnell finden. Also ich habe es so verstanden..ist doch Krank sowas-.-
Der Artikel auf Body Xtreme? Laut Jon Delarosa, seinem besten Freund, der bei der Nummer auch zugegen war, ist die Story mit dem Fotoshooting Unsinn. Es ist, wie von mir von Anfang an richtig geschrieben, mit einem Fan auf einer Expo passiert. Der hatte ihn um ein Foto in Armwrestling-Pose gebeten und dann unverhofft Ernst gemacht.
omg, das ist echt bitter. Harte Disziplin über Jahre verteilt. Jetz dann MR.O und dann sowas :(
Mr. O hätte er ja sowieso nicht mitgemacht oder? Aber generell bitter, wenn man wieder gut aufgebaut hat nach der Haft und jetzt wieder gestoppt wird.. Erinnert mich an mich selbst, nur dass ich nicht in Haft saß. :D
Warum war er in Haft?
