The Beast, Roelly Winklaar could have won the 2020 Mr. Olympia. I don’t like to live in the past, but this point needs to be made. It’s such a powerful point, that I chose to start the article with it. Everyone, and I mean everyone, couldn’t believe their eyes last year. The 2018 Olympia People’s Champion was in top form; the only thing left was to hop on a plane for Orlando, FL. That being said, 2020 was the beginning of the chaos. Even though by the 2020 Olympia, the contest had long, changed dates and venues, the world was still being ravaged by the Covid 19 virus. Even today, with the growing concerns about the Delta Variant, we’re still struggling for normalcy, but last year was so much crazier.

While this article may not be EVERY person who goes to the gym, it absolutely applies to many of those who have and use their gym membership regularly.

Phil Hernon loved to help people. He made videos all the time, whether for his own platforms or graciously appearing on others.

He wasn’t one of the so-called gurus who believed themselves to be geniuses, who believed themselves to be beyond learning new things.

First and foremost, I’d like to stress one glaring point, Arnold Schwarzenegger is no stranger to ruffling feathers. He has been in front of the cameras, whether for bodybuilding, film, politics and/or philanthropy for the better part of a half century. He not only understands how the mainstream media works, but some might say he utilized many of the tactics they adopted, well before their very existence.

2020 North American champion Nick “The Mutant” Walker has been ruffling feathers since he earned his IFBB Pro League pro card. As he prepares for his Arnold and his Olympia debuts, at just 27 years of age, he’s talking like a guy with razor sharp focus. He knows he’s good and so far, no one who has stepped up to him, has been able to back up the talk. Who can forget his rivalry with Redcon’s Blessing Awodibu.

Growing up and seeing Arnold Schwarzenegger in all of the magazines and movies, he was somewhat of an idol of mine. The fact that the man could come over to the United States, basically with nothing, and become what he has today is truly the American dream.
