Mark Anthony

GenderMale
StatusRetired

Mark Anthony won the Men's Physique Olympia in 2013, the division's second year, beating a field that included Jeremy Buendia in second. He won the Pittsburgh Pro in 2013 and 2014 and the New York Pro in 2012.

Known for

The 2013 Olympia title is the record. Men's Physique had existed at the Olympia for one year and Anthony won the second one, ahead of the competitor who then won the next four.

He placed sixth in 2014 and sixteenth in 2016, and the professional wins are concentrated in the three seasons around the title: the Europa Show of Champions, the New York Pro and the Pro Grand Prix in 2012, the Pittsburgh Pro in 2013 and 2014.

Early career

He won the 2011 North American Championships, which carried his professional card, and was winning at professional level within a year.

The division changed quickly around him. By 2016 the standard that had won in 2013 finished sixteenth.

Physique benchmark

How Mark Anthony measures up

Fat-free mass index turns the height and weight on this profile into one number for how much muscle a frame carries, so a shorter competitor is not flattered by a bodyweight comparison. The normalised figure adjusts it again to a standard height, which is the version worth ranking. Both assume the 6% body fat a competitor steps on stage at, because that is the only condition the recorded weight was taken in.

23.7FFMI
23.7Normalised FFMI
306thOf 316 measured men

The closest Olympia champion on that measure is Ryan Terry, at 25.9.

What this rank is not. This database holds a height and a weight for just 463 athletes, and they are overwhelmingly the ones somebody bothered to measure: 74 of them hold an Olympia title. Almost every competitor on record carries no measurement at all. The pool also mixes every division and era together, from the lightweight women's classes to the open heavyweights, so it ranks size and nothing else. It says where Mark Anthony sits among the athletes we hold measurements for, not among competitors.

Amateur and other shows not counted above

3 results from amateur shows and other contests this archive does not class as professional. Every total on this page covers the professional career only, so these are listed here but never counted, and they have no contest page.

Legacy

Men's Physique now has more competitors than any other division. Its second champion is barely mentioned in accounts of how it got there, which is the gap this page is for.

In 3 meetings, Jeremy Buendia finished ahead of Mark Anthony 2 times to 1.

Opponents are ranked by how often they shared a stage and how big the stage was, not by reputation. A meeting is one contest where both competed in the same division and both were placed.

Sources

Competition placings for his Men's Physique career come from our own contest database and cover 2011 to 2016.

Our source data also holds results under this name dating back to 1989, more than twenty years before the Men's Physique division existed. We have not confirmed they belong to the same competitor and they are excluded from the account above.

Win rate here is first-place finishes as a share of all 11 professional contest results. It is published only where a career holds at least five, because below that a single placing moves the figure by twenty points or more.
