0 IFBB Pro Kai Greene Sighs With Weider

On top of having a sweet contract with supplement company MuscleMeds, 35 year old Kai Greene has left Muscular Development magazine to sign an exclusive publishing deal with Weider Publications/AMI. This is going to REALLY piss off Steve Blechman (owner of MD) because Kai has been the post boy for that magazine for years now. With MD stealing Jay Cutler from Weider just a few weeks back, I guess this is just a little payback!

“I’m excited and I feel many steps closer to the goals that I dream about,” Greene said. “The first bodybuilding magazine I ever read was Muscle and Fitness, but FLEX wasn’t long to follow. To become a Weider athlete and be a part of the Weider organization is like watching a little boy’s dream come true … Myself and my team are very thankful and happy with all of the success we’ve been able to experience thus far … We’re not totally fulfilled yet, though. We still understand we have a lot of work to do and are happy to do that work. I’m thankful for the opportunity to do it in this fashion, as a Weider athlete.” Greene said.

Greene has had a tough life for most of his childhood and teen years and has had to overcome numerous obstacles on his way to becoming a champion bodybuilder. He’s now one of the top challengers for the Olympia title.

“What Kai Greene has had to overcome in his life on his quest to follow his dreams and become one of the top bodybuilders in the world is simply amazing,” FLEX Editor-in-Chief Allan Donnelly said. “His story is truly an inspiration to anyone who has faced adversity in their life. We are extremely happy and proud to be able to call him a member of the Weider/AMI family … Leading up to this year’s Olympia we knew we were going to have to make some tough decisions in order to shift our focus from the past and to the future,” Donnelly said. “We feel very positive about the athletes we currently have under contract, and know that they are going to be at the top of their game for years to come. Kai Greene is without a doubt at the forefront of that group, and we are excited to watch what he does next as he enters the prime of his career.

0 Female Bodybuilder Renee O'Neill Passes Away

From Steve Wennerstrom:


It is with great sorrow and regret that I report the passing of former national-class heavyweight competitor Renee O'Neill.
Diagnosed with cancerous melanoma on January 12th, O'Neill died on March 31st from complications stemming from the cancer. A memorial service was held on April 7th at the Berryhill Funeral Home Chapel in her Athens, Alabama home. She was 47. Born in Massachusetts and raised in Southern California where she graduated from Pacifica High School in Garden Grove in 1980, O'Neill transferred from Orange Coast College to the University of Alabama in Huntsville where she earned her Bachelor of Science degree in 1985 and a Master of Science in computer science in 1992. An accomplished bodybuilder, O'Neill began competing in 1991 winning the NPC Tennessee Valley heavyweight class. In 1992 she placed third at the NPC Alabama as a MW. After winning the overall NPC Alabama in 1993 O'Neill moved to bigger regional and national-level events. In 1995 she won the HW & overall NPC Southern States. She was also the HW & Overall winner at the 1997 NPC Ironmaiden in California. O'Neill's highest national placing came in 1999 when she placed second in the HW class at the NPC Nationals. Over her competitive career she entered the Nationals six times, and the IFBB North American, NPC USA, NPC Junior USA, and NPC Junior Nationals once each. Her competitive career lasted 10 ten years from 1991 to 2000. O'Neill was also a noteworthy powerlifter who totaled 1,150 pounds in the 165-pound class lifting 450 in the squat, 250 in the bench, and 450 in the deadlift. She was also a skilled ice hockey player, and also had a love of horseback riding. Outside of bodybuilding, O'Neill carried on an impressive career working for The Boeing Company working as an associate technical fellow in 2003 and as an executive in 2008. Her last position was as director, Sensors Systems Integrated Product Team for the Ground Based Midcourse Defense Missile program. On one of the biographical sheets she filled out at one of her many competitions - under occupation - she simply wrote "software engineer working on the space station project". In addition, O'Neill received notable commendations for her work including the 1996 NASA Space Flight Awareness award and the 2007 Air, Space, and Missile Defense Association's Space and Missile Defense Technical Achievement award. We extend our sincerest condolences to her husband Don Gold, her daughter Caroline, and her entire family. Rest assured she will always be remembered warmly in the sport of women's bodybuilding.

0 Species Nutrition Signs IFBB Pro Ben White

Species Nutrition is proud to announce the signing of IFBB pro and strength athlete Ben White to a sponsorship contract. Ben has been a friend of Species Nutrition for the past two years, competing and winning the bros vs pros bench off for RX Muscle and competing in the "World's Strongest Bodybuilder" showdown at the 2009 Olympia. Ben will be featured in 2010 Species Nutrition advertising campaigns as well as numerous booth appearances.

Ben earned his pro card by winning the overall at the 2007 USA's in Las Vegas and made his pro debut with a strong 6th place finish at the 2008 New York Pro's. In 2009 Ben followed up with a 6th in the Dallas supershow and a 5th in the Tampa Pro. It is felt in the industry that he is up and coming and will be loaded for bear at the 2010 Tampa Pro in July.

Ben is obviously one strong dude and competes regularly in the off season in RAW powerlifting meets, completing a 705 lb deadlift while on the Palumbo diet in recent weeks.

Ben joins PJ, Heather Mae French and Nicole Ball as contracted athletes and joins a long list of IFBB and top NPC athletes sponsored by Species Nutrition.
