Weekend, the most prestigious event in the world of bodybuilding with more than
100 participants, returns to the Orleans Arena September 28-30.
For

Arena. Winning this prestigious event is considered the highest accolade in the
sport of professional bodybuilding. With total prize money exceeding $900,000,
the 2012 IFBB Joe Weider's Olympia Fitness and Performance Weekend holds the
record for the all-time highest single purse in the history of the sport.

contenders include Dexter Jackson, Kai Greene, Branch Warren and Dennis Wolf.
