Fitzgerald was asked in the comment section about when his first show will be. He then shared a video posing under the guidance of Rambod sharing the announcement. Fitzgerald will compete at the NPC Texas State Naturals on Nov. 6-7.
Fitzgerald grew up with an athletic background. His father played collegiate football as a 6-foot-7 defensive end. At a young age, Fitzgerald himself became a standout in football, wrestling, soccer, and fencing. He has been pursuing his goals as a natural bodybuilder while also attending Hampton University. He plans to finish a five-year program to get his Master in Business.
Fitzgerald is not afraid to set lofty goals for himself. He previously spoke about breaking Chris Bumstead’s mark as the youngest Classic Physique Olympia champion in history.
“I found that Chris Bumstead won the Classic Physique Mr. Olympia around 24. Because I just turned 19 and have all the support around me, I thought why not shoot for youngest Classic Mr. Olympia? That’s my long-term goal right now. I have about five years.”
Julian Fitzgerald’s Shoulder & Chest Workout

- Dumbbell Front Raises
- Dumbbell Shoulder Press
- Standing Flye Machine
- Straight-Bar Tricep Pushdowns

Fitzgerald continues to workout naturally and plans to keep it this way. He spoke about potentially doing “something minimal” at 22 or 23 years old but even so, it will be done naturally.
“I don’t plan on hopping any PEDs anytime soon. I plan on staying natural. I’ve stayed natural my entire life. And I’m trusting Hany to help me bring the most out of my physique that I can. We both agreed that I have a lot more to bring out. I’m excited to see what I can bring out naturally.”
Many fans are excited to see such a young talent like Fitzgerald compete for the first time. He has a scheduled date for his NPC debut and many eyes will be on the natural bodybuilder.
