Chris Cormier will compete at the 2007 IFBB Colorado Pro Show

[HARDCORE]

Chris Cormier, who did not compete in 2006 after an incredible illness, which kept him in the hospital for over a month, and almost killed him, will be back on stage, announcing via Shawn Ray that he will compete again for his pro 2007 debut at the Colorado Pro in June.
While people always want to count Chris Cormier out, we should never do so. After all, the man finished six times in a row in second place at the Arnold Classic, and has the genetics and physique to come back and win this show.

Chris Cormier has won 11 IFBB pro shows, and has placed second at 20 other IFBB Pro shows. He is one incredible competitors, and a future hall of famer!

Oh my gosh, I didn't even know he was sick.  How sad.     Does anyone really know what happened? 

[p.s.]

In a nut shell Chris had a couple of crushed discs from a bad squat quite a few years ago, and while training in '06 he managed to get some type of infection that worked its way into and through his disc problems and became a spinal infection that nearly killed him. In fact after he was released from the hospital a month later he was still having issues with walking etc, so for him to be on the comeback trail so soon says volumes about his strength and work ethic.
