Diese Jahr dreht er seine 5. DVD >)
Hey Pole,
ist das'n Fake von wegen 4 weeks out? Ich mein: er sieht bedeutend besser aus als bei den letzten Posingauftritten. Oder um es anders zu sagen: Will er dieses Jahr entgegen seiner Ankündigung DOCH auf die O-Bühne? Nur um nochmal mitzumachen??? Just for fun?
Grüße
Doc
Evtl. macht Ronnie Promotion für Nautilus Geräte, da muss er dann auch zeigen, dass er an den Dinger trainiert!
Aber er hat doch 4 Bandscheibenvorfälle, da kann es sein, dass irgendwann Kreuzheben und der andere Kram einfach weh tut.

PBW Welcomes Back 8-Time Mr. Olympia Ronnie Coleman! Listen Here!
Proving the old adage "never-say-never", Ronnie Coleman is a professional bodybuilding champion who has trained with great ferocity for over 31 years and continues to eye competitive success, something he is no stranger to, having won bodybuilding's highest honor, the Mr. Olympia title, eight times throughout his distinguished career.
As arguably the greatest bodybuilder ever, Ronnie Coleman is remarkably humble and, astoundingly, despite competing at the highest level for almost two decades has not lost any passion for the sport he has loved from the very beginning. It is what motivates him - the sheer love for training and presenting something very few people could even dream of achieving - that drives him on.
It is said we are driven by what we must do to survive and we are passionate about what we love to do. Ronnie Coleman, all 300 pounds of him, is driven by his passion for bodybuilding and the reward for him is in the effort it takes to achieve his training objectives.

At 44 years old, an age at which most bodybuilders would have long since retired, Ronnie Coleman can be found in the gym crafting his muscles, still seeking improvements after all these years. That he still has high bodybuilding aspirations including a wish to, once again, dominate the professional bodybuilding stage, an arena he once virtually owned, is a case study in perseverance and commitment.
At one time, Ronnie Coleman was unbeatable. It was assumed the annual Mr. Olympia battle would be for second place. Coleman had secured his spot based on the remarkably degree of size he had attained and the crazy conditioning that highlighted his complete physique. To quote a passage within his posing music, it was "Game Over", for his competition.
Ironically, for the man known as Father Time's greatest adversary - it would be the many years of hard training and dieting that would prove Ronnie Coleman's undoing. Where no man could stop him, time did. When he needed to stop and recharge - as all competitors inevitably do - Ronnie pushed harder and, in 2006, suffered his first Olympia loss in nine years. He was simply not at his best. He was tired.
Today Ronnie, having established a better-balanced relationship with Father Time, yet having lost none of the inner fire that kept him at the top for so long, is recharged and ready to again compete amongst the world's best. The 2009 European Tour is in his sights and he has been "relentless" in his pursuit of presenting, at this contest, the Ronnie Coleman the fans know best.
Asked to summarize his career in one statement, Mr. Coleman said: "The greatest career ever". If results and the underpinning passion needed for their realization is any measure of greatness, a truer statement by a bodybuilder has not been made.
In the following interview Ronnie Coleman discusses what bodybuilding has meant for him and how he has built an iron-forged legacy that will not be matched for many years to come, if ever.

[ Q ] What is your life like now that you do not have the pressure of preparing for the Mr. Olympia to consider?
dot
It is a lot of pressure to prepare for the Mr. Olympia. I had a lot of fun though; it was something I looked forward to doing every year. Now that I don't have this, I kind of get bored sitting around with nothing to do. Even the training to prepare for a show: the dieting and all that goes in to it. I kind of miss it a little bit.
dot
[ Q ] That being said, do you ever have the urge to return to the stage?
dot
Yes. I'm pretty much doing the European Tour this year, the one after the Olympia. Weider is putting on a big show in Germany so I will take part in that one.
dot
[ Q ] How far out will you begin training for this show?
dot
I take about 12 weeks to get ready for a show. But I train all year round.

[ Q ] How hard are you training right now and what kind of shape are you in?
dot
I'm about 300 pounds right now and I'm training about four days a week on average. I will start training more once the contest gets closer and I want to start getting more into contest shape. I'll pick it up more then.
dot
[ Q ] This time around, although it is a smaller show compared to that to which you are accustomed, is there a particular look you would like to present?
dot
I will as always aim to be the best I can for the most part. I didn't really compete last year so it is kind of hard to gauge where I could be. I usually start at around 325 (pounds) and come down from there. I'll just try to come in the best shape I possibly can.
dot
[ Q ] What weight range will you look to compete at for your European show later this year (2009)?
dot
I'll probably come in at about 275 to 280, somewhere in there, same as when I stopped competing. I'll probably try to come down to something like that.
dot
[ Q ] There are those who feel you were at your best when you competed lighter, which for you was in the low 270's, and those who say you were best in the 290's. Was there a particular look you presented that you preferred over the others?
dot
Number one. That one was incredible to me. It (Ronnie's first Olympia win in 1998) always will be and nothing will ever take the place of that one. Everything was just spot on for that show. I had to overcome so much to win that one too.
I had guys in front of me who had beaten me for the last ten years or so. Nobody picked me to go in and win that show because I had gotten ninth the year before. I had to come with an incredible package and blow all the judges away and that's what I pretty much did.
dot
[ Q ] Nobody was really expecting you to win, the judges included.
dot
That's right. There was Flex and Nasser and Kevin. There were just so many people in front of me who had got first, second and third for seven or eight years. I was not even in the picture with a ninth place the year before.

[ Q ] In 1992 you placed dead last at the Mr. Olympia along with several others. At that point did you feel you could someday go all the way to win the title?
dot
No, not even close. I didn't even care about winning then. I was just competing because it was a hobby and I was getting a free membership to the gym (laughs). I just did it because it was something I enjoyed doing and loved to do. As long as I went into the show and knew I had done my best that is all that really mattered.
dot
[ Q ] Other than the obvious size and conditioning advantage you had at most of you contests, what gave you the edge over your fellow pros? What distinguished you by such a large margin?
dot
It would have to be the way I trained. If you look at some of my training videos and look at some of the other guys training videos you will see that my training was totally different and much more intensive compared to the other guys. That pretty much gave me the edge.
dot
[ Q ] And your training style obviously was reflected in the way you looked onstage.
dot
Oh, for sure.
[ Q ] Your muscles had a denser look because of all the power training you did?
dot
Yes exactly, that's exactly what it was.
dot
[ Q ] It is often mentioned within bodybuilding circles that, physique-wise, you are the greatest bodybuilder of all time. Would you agree with this statement?
dot
I'm not going to disagree with it. I'm not saying it; other people are saying it. It's like a gift that isn't given lightly. It's the kind of compliment that you have to take (laughs). You can't look at the person and say, "No, that's not true." So I just take the compliment. But I have not said this one time.
dot
[ Q ] It's not exactly a hard compliment to take though is it?
dot
No, no. It's too generous of a compliment not to take.
dot
[ Q ] At what point before or after you won your pro card did you realize that you could make a successful career as a professional bodybuilder?
dot
It would have to be at least five or six years later. It took me a long time to get to get to where I did. For three or four years I didn't really do anything; I didn't place in the top five that often.
Like I said, I was just content to go through it because I was having fun doing it and I was getting a free gym membership. As long as I did the best I could, and that's what I was doing, I was okay with that.

[ Q ] Was there a particular point when you figured you could make some serious money as a pro competitor?
dot
Not really. I was doing okay. I was making decent money at one time. There was never a point early on where I considered quitting my job and doing it (bodybuilding) full time. I quit working in the police force full time only after I won my third Mr. Olympia.
dot
[ Q ] I heard that you had recently undergone treatment for your back. Could you share the details of this treatment and the extent of your injury with me?
dot
The treatment went good. I've had back problems basically my whole career. The treatment was great and they did a real good job. I'm also going to a chiropractor at least two to three times a week now.
dot
[ Q ] What was the specific back problem?
dot
I had a herniated disk. I did that in 1996 and it just never really healed up. They never do. Once they pop out, they stay out.
(Spinal Disc Herniation:
A spinal disc herniation (prolapsus disci intervertebralis) is a medical condition affecting the spine, in which a tear in the outer, fibrous ring (annulus fibrosus) of an intervertebral disc (discus intervertebralis) allows the soft, central portion (nucleus pulposus) to bulge out. )
Q ] Yet despite this painful condition you have trained in an ultra-intense manner for the past 12 years. How were you able to lift through the pain?
dot
You just block it out and continue training hard. You just have to have a high pain tolerance level. So that's basically how I dealt with it.
dot
[ Q ] Then after training you suffered.
dot
Yes, basically (laughs). It was something I was used to doing so it wasn't a big problem at all. It is something that still gives me problems today. You have to have a high pain tolerance level.

Er hat seit 1996 einen Bandscheibenvorfall und trainiert damit trotzdem.
Es heilte bisher nicht aus aber er verdrängt den Schmerz.
