Exclusive: Calum von Moger Returns to Bodybuilding Stage at NPC Universe

Calum von Moger looks ready to dominate one week out.

Calum von Moger has proven over the years to be a resilient human being. The former WFF Mr. Universe suffered through a number of injuries that could have derailed his career. But the Australian powerhouse was able to overcome these trials with will and determination.

Earlier this year Calum von Moger hoped to return to the stage and show the world what they were missing. Unfortunately for Calum, 2020 hasn’t been the easiest year to navigate as NPC and IFBB Pro competitions were canceled around the world due to the global health crisis.

Now that bodybuilding shows are being conducted again, Calum von Moger is eager to step back on stage. From the looks of his current physique, he has what it takes to really put the Classic Physique division on notice.

You’ll notice that not only has Calum gotten a new sleeve tattoo, he’s also put on a tremendous amount of muscle. His definition and musculature is proving to be very impressive, so much so that he could rival the top of the Classic Physique division.

The 2020 NPC UNIVERSE IS MOVING! We have tried to be patient and hope for the COVID-19 regulations in NY/NJ to loosen up, but we can’t wait any longer and risk having to cancel this amazing event. Fortunately we found a location that will allow us to move forward and that is the CHARLESTON MARRIOTT in Charleston, SC. The contest will still take place on November 12-14 and we want to see you there!

Happy how my legs have comeback particularly my right quad after a tearing it 2 years ago. I was stuck in a plateau with them a long time but since I’ve been training them twice a week, the size and strength has finally returned. Either way hard work and persistence always pays off ? @vonmogercrew – gym apparel
