IFBB Pro League Men’s Open bodybuilder Michal “Križo” Križánek is sitting out the rest of the 2024 Olympia qualifying season and will not pursue competing in the 60th edition of bodybuilding’s world championships.
Multiple sources have revealed that Križánek is recovering from a shoulder injury that has restricted his training and posing. As a result, Križánek will take time off to heal properly.
Križánek will return to the competitive stage at the 2024 Prague Pro on Nov. 16-17, 2024to attempt to qualify for the 2025 Olympia. The location of the 2025 contest has yet to be announced.
Bodybuilding insider A.J. Kelly was the first to report the story. Križánek confirmed the report in an Instagram story on Jun. 20, 2024. Križánek also confirmed that he wants an invite to the 2025 Arnold Classic in Columbus, OH, set for the weekend of Feb. 28 through Mar. 2, 2025.
Križánek was coming off a third-place finish at the 2024 Empro Classic Pro in Alicante, Spain, on Jun. 15, 2024. William Bonac won that show, with Behrooz Tabani in second. Križánek was attempting to qualify for the Olympia for the third consecutive year.
After competing in the rival IFBB Elite Pro organization, Križánek switched to the IFBB Pro League by winning the 2022 Amateur Olympia Italy contest. Shortly after, he won the 2022 Prague Pro to qualify for his first Olympia. He finished 12th in the 2022 Olympia in Las Vegas, NV, and seventh at the 2023 edition in Orlando, FL.
The 2024 Olympia will be held at Resorts World in Las Vegas on the weekend of Oct. 10-13, 2024. Competitors who are not yet qualified have until Sept. 15, 2024, to win a pro show to qualify for the 2024 Olympia. Križánek’s absence from that lineup will leave a significant void that a new contender can exploit.
