  • This is the second year in a row that we've attended this spectacle held at the Las Vegas Convention Center. What you'll find here in mid-September are lots of lunk heads, tanned skin, fake breasts, and a crush of people who line up to gawk at professional bodybuilders and stand in ridiculously long lines to snag loads of fitness freebies; myself and the b/f are included in that crazy crowd. Olympia weekend is a huge event in the bodybuilding world and the expo is a big part of it. Supplement companies galore with the athletes they sponsor are present, as well as other booths that will sell you shaker bottles, gym wear, gym accessories, 6-pack bags, and anything else associated with gains and the beast mode life. The expo also features competitions that include the Battle of the Bars, the Strongman Challenge, and a couple of fitness model searches. Tickets at the door were $25 for one day, but you could also get a 3 day pass which cost $50 this year; buy online early to save time in line. If you go, I highly recommend going at least half an hour before the doors open and get in line to pay for your admission. We have gone on Fridays because we like to avoid the Saturday/Sunday lunacy. Wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for the crush of people once you step inside. You should also do your homework and know which booths will be at the expo and get strategic about which ones you really want to spend your time waiting in line for; the list of exhibitors and a map are posted online at www.mrolympia.com. This year we chose to head straight to BodyBuilding.com's booths even though their line was already snaking around many of the other vendors there. Since I was with the b/f and our coach, we took turns waiting in line while the others walked around the rest of the expo and scoped out other booths, picked up samples, and met some of our fitness idols. I had time to visit the QuestBar booth and get some free bars plus other swag. I also successfully stalked one of my bodybuilding crushes and had a picture taken with him--#nerdalert. All that while the BodyBuilding.com line moved at a snail's pace. This may seem nuts to you, but some people will get it. All I know is that there's a 99.6% chance we'll do it all again next year.
