Bodybuilding world is filled with many icons that helped to change the sport forever. The number of talented athletes that have graced the sport has had a huge impact – from the day they decided to step onto a posing stage to the day that they finally decided to call it quits. Men like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sergio Oliva, Lee Haney, Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler, ALL of them had something special that set them apart from other bodybuilders. They were all champions that brought something different to the table than the other competitors. Kenneth ‘Flex’ Wheeler is certainly one of them.
