Ronnie Coleman and Derek Lunsford crush a back and biceps workout.
Eight-time Mr. Olympia Ronnie Coleman and 2022 Olympia runner-up Derek Lunsford team up for an intense back and biceps workout. The two bodybuilding veterans went in depth about the mechanics of the training and how to build an Olympia-quality physique.
Every generation has its standout athlete in a given sport. In the modern era of boxing, you had Floyd Mayweather who dominated fighters inside the ring and filled his bank account to bursting with every bout. He changed the face of boxing forever. Mike Tyson before Mayweather also shifted the boxing landscape and Muhammad Ali before either of them. The same kind of generational shifts are present in professional bodybuilding.
Winner of eight straight Mr. Olympia titles, Ronnie Coleman changed modern bodybuilding forever. During his reign at the top in the late 90s and early 2000s, no one could come close to matching his otherworldly physique. If no man is an island, Coleman proves that notion false. Genetically gifted and motivated to set himself apart, Coleman trained in a way no other man could achieve the impossible over and over again. Now Derek Lunsford himself hopes to carve out his legacy.
Having already won the 212 Olympia title, Derek Lunsford switched divisions hoping to chase a new challenge. His move to the Men’s Open division shook things up in 2022. Not only was Lunsford able to establish himself as a legit title contender, he very nearly was crowned the 2022 Mr. Olympia champion. If not for the brilliant performance of Hadi Choopan, Lunsford would have been considered the standard for all modern bodybuilders to chase.
