Big Bad Dennis Wolf led the pack in the TEAM MD-dominated (top 4 spots) 1st Annual IFBB Keystone Pro Bodybuilding Classic. Wolf displayed incredible muscularity, symmetry, and conditioning en route to his first ever IFBB Pro Victory. Along with the $20,000 first prize, Wolf avenged his controversial 3rd place finish at the New York Pro show (2 weeks earlier) and he earned the respect of the entire bodybuilding community.

 

Bringing up a close 2nd was New York's Desmond Miller. Miller's incredible size and conditioning were too much for the rest of the pack to contend with; however, his lack of a comparable back left him vulnerable to the symetrical assault of Wolf. Look for Desmond to be a real threat in the future!

 

Kai Greene, easily the crown favorite, brought a slightly smoother package than he did 2 weeks ago in New York; however, his masterful command of the stage and his inhuman muscle separation pushed him into the third spot. It was Kai's other-wordly posing and acrobatic feats that brought the audience to their feet.

 

2007 IFBB New York Pro Champ, Branch Warren, was relegated to a dissappointing 4th place. Despite beating all of these competitors just 2 weeks earlier, Branch lacked the dry, grainy, conditioning in his upper back to match the rest of his ridiculously striated body. While Branch has tons of hard, dense, muscle, when he's a tad off in the conditioning department, it seems to cost him dearly in the placings.

 

Bringing up the fifth position was Spain's Silvio Samuel. Silvio dialed in his conditioning better than he's ever done before. His chest was cross-striated from top to bottom and even his mediocre quads showed more lines than they had in the past. Silvio still needs to add more size to his frame and he absolutely must work on his presentation. When he achieves these two goals, watch out for him!
