2020 has been one of the most #%$*&@ up years any of us has experienced. If there was a box of bad event dominoes, 2020 would be pushing the first one over and causing the snowball effect we’ve experienced thus far (hopefully we are done for the year). That being said, everything...
A week before Christmas, I saw a very interesting video from 212 bodybuilding superstar, Derek Lunsford, in which he asserted that he was “done being 2nd place.” The video drew a bold line in the sand, that 2019 would be the last time this hard-working bodybuilder took runner-up.

I can only speak from my own experience, but in my opinion, the 2018 Olympia was the best we have seen in a long time. I felt like the judges were 100% fair and accurate, Steve didn’t allow the athletes to get carried away on stage and made them pose when he asked, and we had some...

We are living in a very exciting period of time in bodybuilding. The reigning Mr. Olympia, Phil Heath, has won seven consecutive times. As an amateur, he’s never lost. As a pro, his ascent was lightning fast. Phil has been a dominating force in the sport ever since he was...

It’s difficult to hear that this year might be Flex Lewis’ last year competing in 212. Now, he didn’t completely give insight into what’s next, but many are saying retirement isn’t in the picture. This could really only mean one thing – Flex is looking to make the move into the open...

212 Arnold Classic Prejudging Report
The nine man line up for the 2015 212 pounds and under class may have lacked in quantity but not in quality. Once again the lighter division showed that compared to their open compatriots they had a superior cutting edge; maybe proving having to make a...
The Good and the Bad of the 212 Division
by Geoff Roberts
Several years ago, the IFBB instituted a brand new division in which the competitors had to be 210 pounds or less at the time of weigh in. Over time the weight limit of this division was lowered to 202 pounds, then raised to 212...
