Brandon Hendrickson is an elite men’s physique competitor and the 2018 champion. And aside from competing, he trains people to make his living. But, apparently, a college student didn’t receive the services he paid for and now the latter is accusing Hendrickson of cheating him of both his services and the money he asked to be paid back. 

The student paid for Hendrickson to help him with posing but the Physique champ never called or showed up. Well, the young man wasn’t happy about this after he requested a refund, Hendrickson agreed to pay the student $300… but he never did.

And the student’s older brother went on social media to explain how pissed he was that his little brother was swindled. He posted all the Facebook communication between the student and Hendrickson and bodybuilding legend Sergio Oliva Jr. even chimed in.

This is a bad look for Brandon Hendrickson and can most definitely damage a career. At the time the student was asking to be paid back, Hendrickson posted a pic of him buying a new BMW which surely infuriated the student and his family after telling Hendrickson he could pay in $50 increments until the $300 was paid in full.

Here’s the post from the student’s older brother…

We hope this gets resolved so that the student can purchase the books he was going to use his refund for. But, so far, there’s been no responses from Hendrickson that we’re aware of. Thankfully though, other people in the industry have stepped up to expose Hendrickson’s unethical behavior.
