Team MD Welcomes Essa Obaid!

Follow Essa's Prep for the 2013 Mr. Olympia

13breaking-essaMuscular Development is proud to announce the signing of IFBB Pro Essa Obaid! According to Essa, “I feel blessed to have the opportunity to sign with Muscular Development. This is a true honor - the best bodybuilding magazine and website in the entire world.”

Essa has nabbed two top three finishes in the last two weeks, taking third in Tampa and second in Dallas. Many picked him as the front runner in Dallas, and he was clearly the best-conditioned athlete in the line-up. Essa’s team includes trainer Charles Glass, his wife, who does his nutrition, and now, Muscular Development!

Team MD’s Flex Wheeler said, “A champion is not defined by his victories, but more so by the struggles and the way he deals with adversity!   Essa handled his two losses like a TRUE champion, very professional. I am just as impressed with his composure, as I am with the tremendous physique that he has built. I am honored to work beside him and welcome him to Team MD.

Steve Blechman said, “I am excited that Essa Obaid has joined Team MD. I am extremely proud to welcome Essa to our fine team of athletes, writers, photographers, and bodybuilding icons. Best of luck, Essa. Wishing you the very best in your prep for the Mr. Olympia. And a big thank you to George Farah with making the introduction to help bring Essa to Team MD."

Team MD will be following Essa’s progress as he heads into the 2013 Mr. Olympia. Watch for plenty of progress pictures, videos, and updates as he prepares to battle the best of the best on stage in Las Vegas, Nevada the last weekend in September.
