After missing the Olympia, Hadi is the matchup we didn’t get to see. We discuss what Milos could bring to his physique, his reputation for emphasizing insulin, high carbs and muscle fullness, and how his training approach compares with Hadi’s.

Plus, a quick Prague Pro discussion, one-day vs. two-day bodybuilding shows, and Two Truths & a Lie featuring bodybuilding legends. Play along with Ron and Dusty, then stick around for a listener physique critique and football talk.

Who wins this Arnold Classic lineup, and what do you expect Hadi to look like with Milos? Let us know in the comments!
