I was VERY pumped to have qualified for the Arnold's, but I'm in a somewhat no-win situation. I know there is NO WAY IN HELL I can compete with guys like Tim B, Richard, or Denis. I would love to go, but I might as well just mail a check to you guys and save my time. lol

A couple ideas:

1. Let people that qualify at 220 or 242 cut to 198 if possible. I personally don't see why this would be an issue, and would obviously increase your number of entries.

2. Create a 242 class. Not all of us guys around 220 are John Brzenk and can compete with 300+ pound guys. At least with 242 we'd have a fighting chance.

Would either of these be possible Leonard and Denise?

Looks like a good line up....

This is just me thinking out loud.....what I would love to see is me getting a medical "pass" or whatever you would like to call it.

I qualified in two weight classes last year and registered with every intention of going this year...then I hurt my hand, and was in

More classes means more time on the stage and more money. We still have not raised the money for the classes we already have.

I understand. What about the option to cut to 198?

If it is approved for the 198"s then it would have to apply for all the classes and that isn't possible. Sorry Dejnise
