Ivan Sadek - A Champion Effort from a Champion Bloke
My highlight of the IFBB Australian Pro Bodybuilding Grand Prix was the pro debut of Ivan Sadek. His 5th placing at his pro debut and to be on the same stage as Toney Freeman, Kai Greene and Silvio Samuel and not look out of place is a truly amazing effort.
On top of that Ivan is a true gentleman and devoted family man. I had the privelege of meeting Ivan through a mutual friend some time ago. Despite looking like one mean dude, he is very approachable and loves to have a chat.
We knew Ivan was in with a big chance when we were at Dohertys Gym for a workout on the Friday before the show. Ivan was training and I went and said g’day and was blown away by his size and condition. He was huge and ripped to shreds.
The gym was buzzing and Tony Doherty got the camera and revved the big fella up for some shots. Ivan was looking very tired and depleted but whipped the shirt off and hit some poses. I think the pictures say it all - this man is a beast!
