Breon Ansley is working hard to earn his spot at the Olympia.
Days out from the 2022 Tampa Pro two-time Classic Physique Olympia champion Breon Ansley shares his high volume back training routine. With hopes of earning his way onto the Olympia stage, Ansley is working hard and digging deep.
Arnold Classic 2022 Performance
Unfortunately the former reigning Classic Physique Olympia champion couldn’t get back on track as hoped. Breon Ansley was once the most feared man in the Classic Physique division. Now he has been regulated to being third or fourth in the category.
Chris Bumstead and Terrence Ruffin both appear to have firmly cemented their position over Ansley. Ruffin would once again take top honors at the 2022 Arnold Classic while Ansley took third. But despite his performance, Breon Ansley isn’t done with the Classic Physique division quite yet.
Working Back
With just days to go before the 2022 Breon Ansley has shared some of the training he’s been incorporating ahead of the show. From the details it appears that Ansley is leaving nothing to chance.
Hoping to redeem himself at the Tampa Pro, Breon Ansley has doubled down on making gains for the show. Hoping to show he still has what it takes to compete with the best of the best, Ansley is showing supreme dedication in his prep.
“These next two weeks specifically we are not gonna go too heavy, really focus on a lot of volume and a lot of pace and then that third week is gonna be… We’re going to maybe lower the reps and get a little bit more heavier and really grind that out on the heavy side a little bit.”
“There is many phases throughout the prep. So you’ve got to be in tune with what’s going on, you got to really check the balances a lot on a day-to-day basis because things change…”
