Nathan Epler

Nathan Epler made the jump from Men’s 212 to Open Bodybuilding in 2022 and has made a strong impression. He brings great conditioning as one of the smaller competitors and this has worked on stage. Epler is coming off a fourth-place finish during the Tampa Pro and will see familiar faces in this competition. Epler has a chance to creep into the top three during this show.
