His shape and conditioning were phenomenal for the 2018 Mr. Olympia contest, and it was obvious to everyone that he knew exactly what he needed to do to step on stage at his best.
“I may have looked small, big and out of shape during my process, But when it was show day I was EXACTLY where I was supposed to be and won the title of the 2018 Mr. Olympia.”
Rhoden then went on to write a few words of encouragement to his fans about “never giving up” and “trusting yourself”. Shawn Rhoden’s big win is a true testament to what you can achieve with hard work and perseverance.
Congrats to a deserving new champion Shawn Rhoden, as his hard work, determination and passion for bodybuilding has earned him the title of “2018 Mr. Olympia”.
