The pressure was on as the 2024 Arnold Classic witnessed history in the Fitness division with competitors gathering in Ohio for the finals, which took place on Friday evening, March 1. Ariel Khadr was crowned the Fitness International champion, establishing herself as a three-time Arnold Classic champion. Meanwhile, Jaclyn Baker and Jodi Boam claimed second and third-place honors.
Given the dynamic nature of the category, it’s always an exciting spectacle when Fitness talent puts on a show. Last year, Ariel Khadr walked away victorious with a second Fitness International title, but with names like Jaclyn Baker and Minna Pajulahti also in the mix this weekend, fans knew it would turn into an epic battle.
The finals saw a thrilling battle between some of the best Fitness contenders in the world. Not only did Jaclyn Baker present a stellar physique on stage during prejudging but she brought an even more impressive individual routine during the finals. However, champ Ariel Khadr’s routine was one-of-a-kind and paid honor to The Predator movie.
