Team BFS Goes to the Arnold

The Iron Game lost a legend on March 8 when Larry Dee Scott passed away at the age of 75. In 1965 Scott won the inaugural competition of the most prestigious bodybuilding competition in the world, the Mr. Olympia. Scott competed at a bodyweight of 205 pounds, and his biceps were considered the best of his era and measured 20 inches. His favorite exercise was the barbell curl on the preacher curl bench, and he popularized this exercise to the extent that the bodybuilding community renamed it the Scott curl.

Along with drawing attention to this exercise, he helped popularize the split system of training, in which major muscle groups are trained on different days, a method that Scott credits to Dave Fitzen from Salt Lake City. Scott’s road to bodybuilding immortality wasn’t an easy one. By the age of 16 Scott had reached his full adult height, 5 feet 8 inches, weighed only 120 pounds 4 and possessed relatively narrow shoulders. Through hard work, good nutrition and intelligent training guided by bodybuilding guru Vince Gironda, Scott overcome his weaknesses and began winning bodybuilding titles. His first major victory was the Mr. America in 1962, followed by the Mr. Universe in 1963 and 1964.

After winning his second Mr. Olympia title in 1966, he announced his retirement. The reason he gave was that just like his idol Rocky Marciano, he wanted to finish undefeated. Scott always stayed in excellent health and still possessed an impressive physique in his 70s. He died of complications from Alzheimer’s disease. Scott is survived by his second wife, Rachel, and their five children. In a statement after Scott’s death, Arnold Schwarzenegger said, “We’ll all miss the Legend, Larry Scott, a great man who inspired millions.”

The 2014 Arnold Weightlifting Championships were held February 28 to March 1, and Lindsey Cardinal, one of BFS’s own, made a big impact. Cardinal, who represents the Team BFS Weightlifting Club, competed in the international team qualifier event. Cardinal, who took up the sport last winter, broke two personal records and a total of the two lifts that exceeded the New England record, which has stood for 22 years. She made a personal record snatch of 80 kilos (176 pounds), which tied the New England record, and clean and jerked her official best of 101 kilos (223 pounds).

Cardinal has competed in seven meets in just over four months, has made 35 out of 42 attempts, and has increased her total by 25 kilos (55 pounds). A month after the competition, on April 4, Cardinal (formerly Lindsey Spencer) married former Team BFS weightlifter Michael Cardinal in a private ceremony in East Greenwich, Rhode Island. Both are graduates of Utah State University in Logan, Utah.
