The Men’s Classic Physique has been a tough category since its inception in 2016, and with every pro show, new contenders seem to emerge. UK-based IFBB Pro Brandon Harding is one of them. Bodybuilding page “bisandtris” recently shared the latest physique update of Harding before his upcoming show.  

Harding is gearing up for the 2024 Toronto Pro Supershow set to be held on June 9 at Delta Hotels by Marriott Toronto Airport & Conference Centre in Toronto, Ontario. While he hasn’t been on stage since he won his Pro Card in 2022, his Instagram is filled with recent physique updates after announcing that he will be stepping on stage in Toronto.

With just six and a half weeks left for the show, the English bodybuilder is giving his all for his preparation, as can be seen in the post shared by bisandtris

In the picture, one could see the IFBB Pro flexing his physique by doing the most muscular pose, showcasing his enormous biceps and quads. The separation lines on his quads made his lower body look fully developed. He further moved to the side triceps pose, showcasing the gigantic size of his triceps. The separation lines and striations on his chest were easily noticeable. However, this was not the center of attention.

What stole the show was Harding’s well-developed back. He flaunted his gigantic back with a striking back double bicep pose, showcasing the to-the-point muscle definition that complemented his overall physique. Despite having such an impressive physique, bodybuilding fans showed their skepticism over Harding’s physique and called him out for editing the images.

Not looking very classic,” think fans

A bodybuilding critic commented on Harding’s images being excessively edited and wrote, “Extremely edited pictures should not be re-shared as progress updates.” One bodybuilding enthusiast explained why he doesn’t see Harding as a top contender and wrote, “No hate, he has come far and made amazing improvements! I just don’t ever see him as a top guy. Wide waist and unfavorable muscle insertions. I would love for him to prove me wrong, I just don’t see it.”

Another called him out for the filters used and commented, “He looks the same. Don’t see any change other than the filters lol.”
