Behind Callouts: Inside the Mind of a Bodybuilding Judge

By Hussein Elasrag

Bodybuilding is more than muscles and medals - passion, pain, and purpose shaped over years. But behind every trophy is a decision made in silence, under pressure, by those sitting just beyond the lights. This book opens the door to that unseen world. This book shares what competitors never see: the inner conflicts, emotional weight, and difficult calls that define the judging table.

Through real stories, quiet reflections, and brutally honest insights, this book bridges the gap between athletes and judges - not to defend, but to reveal.

It also explores what few dare to mention: the business of bodybuilding. The glamour, the deals, the politics, and the quiet controversies that shape the sport from behind the scenes.

More than a guide, this is a reflection - of standards, of emotions, and of the weight carried behind every final callout. For anyone who's ever stood on stage or watched from the crowd - this is the other side.
