The Olympia is going to be epic.

The Olympia is almost here and the excitement is palpable. The competitors have been training hard and pushing themselves to the limit in order to bring their best physiques to the stage. Now that the Olympia is finally here, the competitors, judges, and VIPs in the sport are reflecting on how we all got here.

The Rock and his production company Seven Bucks Digital Studios took some time to interview the best of the best about the evolution of bodybuilding for both men and women. Take a look as some of the Olympia champions discuss the past and modern eras of the sport and what to expect at the Olympia.

Excited to produce the first of its kind #OlympiaTakeover with our @sevenbucksds about a sport I have such respect, love and passion for. We want to elevate and shine a new light on the biggest and most iconic event in the world of bodybuilding and showcase the incredible athletes stepping onto the @mrolympiallc stage. My fundamental actions for my success have always been rooted in bodybuilding. Regardless of what you do in life.. success will always come down to your hunger and the sweat you’re willing to drop to achieve your goals.. and how many cheat meal pancakes you can destroy ? Let the storytelling begin. I’ll see you in Vegas. #OlympiaTakeover #SevenBucksProds #HonoringTheSport #AnimalInAllOfUs *link in bio ??
