Patrick Moore Hints at Moving to Classic Physique?!

Did Patrick Moore just hint at moving to the Classic Physique division.

Looking to shake things up in his career, it appears that Patrick Moore could be moving to the Classic Physique division. It comes as a bit of a shock considering that Moore shut down the idea in the past.

Sometimes a change is necessary in order to see further progress. After all, if you do what you’ve always done then you’ll get what you’ve always got. Patrick Moore is taking this notion to heart as he’s decided to potentially make a major shift in his career.

It appears that one of the staples of the Men’s Open Bodybuilding division is looking to make a change. Long time competitor Patrick Moore has hinted at switching divisions. Moore has potentially decided to try his hand at the Classic Physique division.

This may come as a bit of a surprise especially considering that Patrick Moore shut such notions down not too long ago. Now it seems that he’s had a change of heart. It appears that Moore is willing to pit his considerable physique against Chris Bumstead and the other standouts in the Classic Physique division.

A Time to Change

Patrick Moore made his intentions known in a social media post on his Instagram page.

What if the comeback wasn’t for open……What if it was for classic physique? What if I cared more about my condition, lines and aesthetics more than size? What if I took all this time to break down muscle and switch categories? Stranger things have happened….?!! #thefuture ????

There’s no doubting that Patrick Moore has an incredible physique. His physique has never been the problem. Size is often what has held him back in his carrier. His latest physique, weighing in at 226lbs, shows a trim yet heavily muscled Moore looking more than capable of taking out anyone in the Classic Physique division.

Me reading all the comments about me switching to classic!???? 226lbs in this pic. Whatever I ultimately decide to do, will be because it’s my body, my career and my choice. It’s about health and wealth. Everything else is white noise???????? #thefuture

It may have yet to be confirmed for certain, but what is clear is that Patrick Moore is more than willing to flirt with the notion of jumping division. If he does you can expect the already exciting Classic Physique division to become much more interesting.
