A day at the Fitness Festival 2011 in Gothenburg

This weekend was indeed a good one. Started off with stuffing myself with all the delights I could possibly conquer during the Saturday's pre-christmas festivities (or "julbord" if you prefer). That was accompanied by a 3 hour drive up to Gothenburg where I slept overnight before entering the Fitness arena. With no further delay, let's take a peek at the pictures from the previous Sunday:

As soon as I got in I went straight for the pre-judging -
got in just when the veterans were starting.

After pre-judging I got out for some meet and greet -
here with Sweden's Martin Kjellström

Back to the show and time for finals. All competitors started out
with classic Rocky theme (eye of the tiger) and outfit to go with it.

A fair bit of audience. More than there was at pre-judging.

Veterans time to shine at the finals.

Some weight divisions were shorter in numbers than others.
This guy got a one-man-show!

Mid-show entertainment featured transformers dancing...
oh yeah!

...and a viking (Christer Norman).

...and one of our good ol' bodybuilders came to
show us that he still got it - Johan Oldenmark.

After that I got out for some more meet and greet -
here with Shawn Ray who was over here promoting SmartShake.

Met up with Roddy Benjaminsson, who might just be
the happiest guy on earth.

Ahmad Ahmad was there as well.
Wouldn't be a Fitness Festival without him!

To conclude: Fitness Festival 2011 was awesome!
