Terrence Ruffin has asserted himself as one of the top competitors in Classic Physique. This is a division that is growing in popularity each year. During the 2022 Arnold Classic, Ruffin won his second consecutive title and gained some momentum for the rest of the season. He was also named Best Poser at the show. Ruffin has sculpted a championship-caliber physique using a combination of training and a rock-solid diet plan.
In a recent YouTube video, Ruffin took viewers through a full day of eating preparing for competition. Ruffin finished second to Chris Bumstead at the 2021 Olympia and will need to continue to make improvements if he wants to knock off the three-time champ. With the talent in Classic Physique, Ruffin knows that he has to stay at the top of his game.
This diet plan that he followed is one used to stay shredded and look his best on stage. Let’s take a look at a full day of eating that Terrence Ruffin used heading into March.
