Classic Physique Olympia Champs Breon Ansley and Danny Hester Do Battle…Over Pancakes?!

Breon Ansley vs Danny Hester in an epic (pancake) showdown!

The current reigning Classic Physique Olympia champion Breon Ansley has cemented himself as a true champion ever since his big win at the 2017 Olympia. Breon Ansley has gone on to compete and win at the 2018 Arnold Classic, becoming the first man to hold the title of Classic Physique champion at the prestigious show.


But it appears that Ansley faced his biggest challenge yet as he recently did battle with a fellow Classic Physique Olympia champion. Danny Hester will go down as the first man to be crowned Olympia champion in a division still in it’s infancy. While Breon Ansley may have succeeded Hester, the former champion looked to defeat his rival in a much different competition.

A pancake eating contest.

In the post below you can see Danny Hester was putting his all into his training leading up to the event and was confident in his preparation.

Refereed by four time Olympia champion Jay Cutler, both Breon Ansley and Danny Hester demonstrated their own unique techniques in devouring their pancakes.

While the battle was neck and neck there could only be one winner as Breon Ansley emerged victorious.

Great to see these two bodybuilders have a sense of humor and that they both supported such a great cause as the pancake contest was done for charity.

Larry Wheels Announces He’ll Be Competing At National Bodybuilding Show

Larry Wheels is on a mission.

Being a prolific powerlifter is no simple task. It takes a diligent work ethic and proper game planning in order to build the kind of herculean strength that sets an individual apart from the average human being. That’s why it’s so hard to be both a powerlifter and a bodybuilder at the same time.


In order to be high level in either discipline takes a fews factors. You have to have the genetics in order to be a truly impressive bodybuilder with the ability to make it to pro status. You have to have the kind of grit and determination to an inhuman level to be able to lift weight upwards of 600 pounds.

Larry Wheels is a man that has been blessed with both these characteristics.

As he journeys toward his ultimate goal of becoming the world’s strongest pro bodybuilder like Stan “The Rhino” Efferding before him, Larry Wheels has been pushing himself constantly in the gym, switching up his programs in order to accommodate both his bodybuilding and powerlifting missions.

After competing and winning his first amateur bodybuilding competition, Larry Wheels is pushing himself to the next level and already has his sights set on his next goal. In November, Larry Wheels will compete in his next bodybuilding competition. Hoping to hammer out all the details, build size and get super shredded, Larry Wheels seems committed to his goal of becoming the strongest IFBB pro.
