By the way, it would be nice if any crypto sportsbook makes an exclusive offer and will let us to place bet on Mr Olympia contest. It's funny but Chris Bumstead will be a nightmare for bookmakers.
yeah, it'll be nice if there is a crypto sportsbook that'll make an exclusive offer for people who are interested in betting on Mr. Olympia, maybe if there are enough people who'll be interested in betting on the event they'll consider it. to be honest I am a bit surprised that it is a bit hard to find a sportsbook that offers odds for this event.

My main question:
Who is going to win Mr Olympia 2024 Men's Classic? Do you think it's gonna be Chris Bumstead again or will Dino finally take a crown on his head? Or will it be Urs? I think that Cbum is going to nail it and win it 6th times in a row.
I'm curious whether there are sportsbooks posting odds for this. I am unfamiliar with bodybuilding as a sport and the only person I actually know about in this field is Cbum but it's only because I've seen people post about him online(usually from "gym fitness coaches or from people who deadlifts), apart from that I know nobody else.
I can't find Mr Olympia on any popular sportsbook, including fiat sportsbooks but I have heard that sometimes some offshore bookmakers accept bets on Mr Olympia.

To get a physique like that is really hard, you need to spend tons of hours in the gym and have a crazy diet. Isn't cheap and you need to have all that free time to spend on the exercise.

This year will be a complex competition, but let's grab some popcorn and enjoy it.
I am into bodybuilding and can confirm that it's really hard and expensive sport. I work full-time job and I'm very tired to go workout after my job. Everything becomes a nightmare when I am on a cut diet to get shredded for the summer.


Is any crypto casino going to make an exclusive contest on Mr Olympia betting for Bitcointalk members? Please write down if you read this post.

Mr.Olympia 2024 Men's Classic has always been popular... I think you're coming to this topic through social media and not because of the very essence of Mr. Olympia.

First of all, you're mentioning a lower category, I mean if you mention Men's Classic, since the main event is the Open, and the guy you name has been stuck there, but more for money reasons.

Currently I consider this sport to be shit, full of steroids and needles everywhere, it always has been, but today social media and mainly the guy you name are the main influences for guys to end up dead at 35 years old, or less.

I’m torn because this is something new I could bet on that I’ve never bet on before but I also don’t want to look at pictures of a bunch of muscle dudes and try to pick out which one looks the best. So I’ll pass for now as the juice doesn’t seem worth the squeeze, but I look forward to other opportunities to bet on things I had never considered before.

 Grin Grin Grin

I wondered what the criteria were for determining the winner of the competition, after I researched and learned that the judges of the competition are people with well-trained eyes and they analyze: mass, symmetry, proportion, definition, and stage presence. So I asked myself the following: does this mean that people who are fans of this sport and want to bet on which of the athletes will win, also need to have well-trained eyes and will be watching men for a long time, because even though they are athletes who are participating, they are still men. So I told myself that I would not watch this type of competition. Man, looking at men's bodies for a long time, being that I am also a man, I don't see myself doing that kind of thing.

This could be the secret cheat code for gay men to get rich gambling. I guess that’s what it’s like to have experience playing certain sports and using your knowledge to try and win bets. Kidding of course. I know being gay doesn’t make you an expert on judging bodybuilding competitions, but it does help you get your foot in the door. Lol

I think this topic is in order. I used to be very interested in body building many weight lifting many years ago when I watched the biography of Arnold Schwarzenegger. And then I learned about Mr Olympia and the other body building competitions. I was fortunate to have met and followed Ronnie Coleman during his days when he was winning the Mr Olympia back to back. I don't what happened but I think after his numerous surgeries that has left him in a wheelchair, I just lost interest in this. Hoping that this thread will bring up to speed on what is happening in the body building world again as it used to be in time past.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is undoubtedly a legend, but the best body builder the world has ever seen is Ronnie Coleman for me... When I didn't know that they were using steroids/anabolizers, I used to train dreaming of being like them. The day I found out that they were using steroids/anabolizers and that they weren't natural, I was very disappointed... Of course, even though these athletes are using steroids/anabolizers, we should know that if they didn't have good genetics and didn't work hard, they wouldn't be as good as they are. We couldn't produce Arnold Schwarzenegger or Ronnie Coleman if we gave steroids/anabolizers to just anyone... I also hope that this thread will give us the opportunity to talk more about bodybuilding, I don't know many of the new names, maybe this thread will give us that opportunity...

Started my bodybuild at the University, I usually go to gym then in order to stay fit, used to do work out, buiding six packs and to try to look good and remain attractive for ladies, then six packs was talk of the town for ladies in my school, they used chooce all these muscular and lion shaped guys over us a normal or natural bodybuid guy, aside from that, there are a lot of benefits tied to it, I don't really like those de-shaped muscular bodybuilds, looks irritating to me, I love it moderate.

Chris Bumstead is the king of physique and body building and there's chance that he might win Mr Olympia 2024 once again. His hard working and discipline will make him win the competition once again this time. I guess we all know that he's going to win the crown once again this time. He's still young and has the physique to win the crown.

I get what you are saying about bodybuilding.  The competitions do seem pretty over the top these days, especially for women.  A lot of those female athletes go overboard trying to win.  They mess with their health and dont look natural anymore.  I can think of any woman bodybuilders I find attractive.  Its just too much.  but hey, to each their own right? Im sure some folks dig the whole super ripped female bodybuilder look. Just not my cup of tea.


I think that in our age, where gender can be easily changed, and a man can be passed off as a woman, no one will be surprised by anything. It happened at the recent Olympics. So why can't it happen in these competitions, where Mr. will turn into Ms. Although you are right, their physiques are not for the naked eye; rather, these athletes can be easily and conveniently studied for anatomy.

I just followed in the era of Cutler and and Ronnie Coleman.

But after that, I haven't been in the bodybuilding and not betting on it. I will understand the reasoning as others doesn't consider this as a sports. And now it's totally different, bodybuilding tends to be more of them becoming mass monsters and not the symmetry or the V-shape type like Reeves. Although we can consider that Ronnie Coleman and Jay Cutler are the start of the mass monsters in bodybuilding.

The question here is.

Can we bet on this event?
This is the deal. Probably since body building is not a niche of most gamblers theres not much option these days for betting on sports like this unlike basketball and other field contest. Plus the choices is down to few and likely some odds wouldnt make such interesting betting pool.
even if it's available to place a bet on, how many persons are lovers of body building or follow these guys up to know how the sports works? For so many, body building Is not a very decent sports because of the potential health implication that comes with it somewhere down thier retirement stage.   I can't begin to think of how deficult it will be attempted to study how the art of body building works and who to place a bet on. Would you just make your inference on who was the better body builder based on thier last performance or thier are indexes to look out for in terms of who trains harder or who has a better physical looks?

I have never seen a casino that offers betting on Mr. Olimpia, but it would be nice, i would go for Chris Bumstead for sure, i have followed his career and he is awesome doing his thing.

Nope we cannot, or at least the people interested in bodybuilding cannot. Its
not exactly a sport so its difficult to have an accurate prediction when the adjudicating
is lets say - subjective.

And because its not a sport and there are no bets available it doesnt really sit right
in the "Gambling Discussion" board but yea thats just a technicality.

Talking about Mr. Olympia I reminded of the idol of bodybuilding fans, Ronnie Coleman or could say the king of Mr. Olympia formerly always been the most difficult bodybuilder to beat in this championship event in the past.
For this year there are several bodybuilders who might look like they could really win gold medals in their respective classes like last year when Derek Lunsford became the 1st winner, he has muscles that really stand out very significantly from almost all points of assessment, it is very perfect body and has very good muscle balance.
But for the Men Classic later I am sure C.Bum will be the favorite bodybuilder to win the gold medal or 1st winner, Ramon Dino does have bigger body than C.Bum but for the proportion of C.Bum muscle shape is much drier and looks really perfect.
And what is unfortunate is that no one knows where the bookies are that provide services for betting on international bodybuilding championships like Mr. Olympia because so far I have never seen the option of betting on bodybuilding sports.

Bodybuilding was my hobby while I was growing up. Then, we used to go to the gym because we wanted to impress the ladies in the neighbourhood with our strong and healthy physiques. It is common to see guys handing out revealing clothes just to get the attention of the girls around.

I have little interest in professional bodybuilding because I see the sport as risky. Even Chris Bumstead had some health issues that kept him in intensive care for weeks. He has won Mr Olympia five times, showing that there is less competition or he is working hard. Urs Kalecinski has kept improving in this competition moving from fourth position to coming third twice (Classic Physique). Maybe he might put up a good show this year. Maybe I might spare some time to follow up on this year's competition.

I'm not sure if there is a reputation crypto based casinos that will offer this kind of "sports". Although for sure those of us here who have been working out might have influence by some great bodybuilders in the past.

Although I haven't followed the sports for many years now, so I'm not updated as who is the present champion and who are the other competitors.

I do agree that this is a niche and so, it might not be for gamblers, in my opinion.

Lol, I've searched and the first and only site that appears offering bets for bodybuilding is a known scam one, so I am not going to even mention the name. But bets could also be placed between forum members if people have favorites.

I used to follow the Mr Olympia open bodybuilding but since the first year Big Ramy won I stopped following it. I think in particular the fact that they are some kind of mutants that don't look like humans is what made me lose interest. But if we talk about it here maybe I'll follow it again a little bit.

There are threads for many sports on Bitcointalk, so why shouldn't we discuss about Bodybuilding? Especially when it's becoming a very popular sport?




* List of 2024 Mr Olympia Qualified Athletes

There are 9 major divisions in Bodybuilding:
  • Open Bodybuilding
  • Men's Physique
  • Classic Physique
  • Bikini
  • Women's Physique
  • Figure
  • Wellness
  • WBB
  • Fitness

When I was a kid, I loved open bodybuilding but as I grew up and matured, my vision and thought around this subject changed. Today, I am a big fan of Chris Bumstead and because of him, I watch Classic Bodybuilding.
I don't know how many of you workout or are into fitness & bodybuilding or even watch it but I hope there are many of you who at least regularly workouts few times a week.

My main question:
Who is going to win Mr Olympia 2024 Men's Classic? Do you think it's gonna be Chris Bumstead again or will Dino finally take a crown on his head? Or will it be Urs? I think that Cbum is going to nail it and win it 6th times in a row.

Do people bet on who will win Mr Olympia? If so thats pretty cool I've never heard of that. I have always admired these body builders and I do try to go to the gym as much as possible even if its just to do one or two workouts and then hit the sauna & swim some laps after thats one of my favorite things to do. I feel that as long as you get there and get the habit going then progress is progress & with consistency you will hit your goals. These guys live eat and breath bodybuilding and its epic.
