25 June 2018
In the wake of the three-member Cambodian bodybuilding team recording one of their biggest successes on the international stage ever at the 9th World Championships in Mongolia last November, the Kingdom has been awarded the hosting rights for the 15th Southeast Asian Body Building and Physique Sports Championship and annual and the regional body’s annual congress.

The prestigious regional championships, involving up to 200 competitors from 11 Asean member nations, competing in 20 categories, will be staged at the Sokhalay Angkor Hotel in Siem Reap from Monday until June 29.

“This is one of the biggest championships that has ever been held in the country, and we at the Cambodian Body Building and Fitness Federation [CBBFF] are proud to welcome some of the best the region has to offer,” the president of the CBBFF, Rasmey Sokmongkol, told The Post on Sunday.

Hah! No, not ripped enough. Take me about 6 to 8 weeks to get stage ready, but all the basics are there...also, wrong race, need to be native ASEAN.

Appreciate the complement, though. I am considering a masters amateur run in the US sometime. Most likely wouldn't even place, but the entire idea is the doing and getting up there. How many ever get that far where they could even consider a try at my age?
