Bodybuilding-XXL.DE - FIBO 2010

F. Hello Günther, Welcome to FIBO. We haven't seen you here in a long time. How do you like it here? What has changed?
Günther Schlierkamp: I'm happy to be here. I was able to see my family, friends and of course the fans again.
For me it all started here. It is an experience for me to be here.

Q. How do you find the development of bodybuilding in Germany?
Günther Schlierkamp: In the past, every bodybuilder had a personality, a character. Now bodybuilders are often just meatball.
I think it's good that you can talk to the athletes at FIBO and get to know them. You can see we are maybe freaks, but freaks with personality.

Q. There has been speculation on our forum about your possible comeback. Do you have positive news for us?
Günther Schlierkamp: I don't know if we can talk about a comeback. I never withdrew from sports, I just did other things. I took acting classes and changed my manager. And most importantly, I'm going to be a dad. We're having a baby boy. Now is the time again to compete with the guys on stage. It's always good to know where you stand. I'm planning to start at Arnold Classic 2011 and I hope to come back in good shape.

Q. Will it be just Arnold Classic or are you planning other competitions?
Günther Schlierkamp: I think I still have a few years ahead of me. I might also plan more competitions Mr. Olympia.

Q. How are you currently training? Has your training changed?
Günther Schlierkamp: You have to find a studio where you feel good and are motivated. I went back to Venice and started training at Golds Gym Studio. That's where you can feel the motivation, that's where guys train who want to achieve something. That's where you get infected. I train with Charles Glass every day.
I work each muscle group once a week. My program still looks like 2006 when I prepared for Mr. Olympia.

F. Congratulations and all the best as dad and for your competitions in 2011. Thanks for the interview.
