As one steps into the electrifying arena of bodybuilding, where muscles speak louder than words and champions are forged in the furnace of determination, one can’t deny the importance of motivation. Recently, the iconic bodybuilder Kevin Levrone injected a surge of motivation into the veins of contenders at the 2024 Arnold Classic, just moments before the colossal showdown.

In a masterstroke of camaraderie, Levrone unleashed a time capsule, transporting us back to 1996, the year he clinched his second Arnold Classic title.

Levrone talks about the passion that made him win the Arnold Classic for the second time

In a throwback Instagram video, capturing the essence of his triumph, Levrone used his words to impart some much needed encouragement for all the bodybuilders set to compete at the Arnold Classic. “To everyone who’s competing this weekend @arnoldsports in Columbus Ohio, I’m sending my congratulations you all are winners,” wrote Levrone in his post.

Moreover, to boost their morale, he shared a triumphant video of himself winning the Arnold Classic trophy for the second, despite facing setbacks. “Be $100,000 richer. He’s the champion. 1996. He’s the champion,” one could hear the host saying in the video. But this wasn’t just a stroll down memory lane; it was an ode to a man whose resilience turned setbacks into stepping stones.

In the video one could also hear Arnold Schwarzenegger saying, “He came up to me several times today saying, I’m going to win this. So here he is. He won,” further presenting Levrone with the coveted trophy. The stage, witness to triumph, stood adorned with legends with the founders of Mr. Olympia, Ben, and Joe Weider, flanking Levrone in a tableau of gratitude.
