Urs Kalecinski
German bodybuilder Urs Kalecinski has established himself as one of the top three talents in the immensely competitive Classic Physique division. Although the Classic Physique division is relatively young, it has exploded in popularity thanks to talents like Chris Bumstead, Ramon Dino, Terrance Ruffin, and Breon Ansley. Unlike the others, Kalecinski stands out because he is the youngest of the lot and has shown immense potential in a very short period. In fact, many believe that the German bodybuilder can win the Classic Physique Olympia one day.
25-year-old Urs Kalecinski is arguably the most promising talent to have emerged from Germany in over a decade. Following in the footsteps of German bodybuilding icons like Markus Ruhl, Gunter Schlierkamp, and Dennis Wolf, Kalecinski has already established himself as a top Classic Physique Olympian after just three appearances. The IFBB Pro has made a name for himself for rapidly and constantly improving his weaknesses. While he is yet to beat Ramon Dino and champion Chris Bumstead, The Miracle Bear has already beaten former champion Breon Ansley and veteran Terrance Ruffin at the 2022 and 2023 Classic Physique Olympia.
Competing with the best in his division at 25 might give the impression that Kalecinski has been bodybuilding since he was a kid. However, that's far from the truth. Born on 30th April 1998 in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany, The Miracle Bear dreamed of becoming a professional skier. So, the IFBB Pro started his journey to make his dream a reality as a kid.
However, the youngster soon faced the difficulties of pursuing skiing. Since he lived in an urban area, Kalecinski had to commute for hours to train and it started affecting his education. Yet, thanks to skiing, Kalecinski had started lifting weights to become stronger and fitter. At 18, the German bodybuilder stopped pursuing skiing and realized that he had the genetic potential to do well in bodybuilding. Thus began his journey to the Olympia stage.
Urs Kalecniski isn't married. However, he has been in a relationship with someone named Alitsche for at least three years. Alitsche has periodically appeared in Urs Kalecinski's YouTube videos and has been present at his Olympia appearances as well. Not much information is available about Alitsche and the couple hasn't announced any plans to get married.
The Miracle Bear's net worth is unknown. However, rough estimates of his reported net worth are a few hundred thousand dollars. Urs Kalecinski has earned $20,000 from his two consecutive third-place finishes at the Olympia. The bodybuilder has also established an apparel brand called Miraclewear.
Although Urs Kalecniski has been competing professionally for just five years, the 25-year-old has climbed to the top of the Classic Physique division. A prolific competitor, Urs Kalecisnki has won prestigious bodybuilding contests like the Tampa Pro, Prague Pro, and more. However, his most impressive performances so far have been placing third and second at the Arnold Classic and two consecutive bronze medals at the Classic Physique Olympia.
Competition History:
The German IFBB Pro trains under veteran coach Stefan Kienzl. The bodybuilder follows a standard push-pull-legs split for most of his training. While Kalecinski does switch up his training program to focus on specific body parts, the bodybuilder doesn't practice any extreme training methods. The secret behind his rapid improvement is the combination of intensity and volume.

Besides Stefan Kienzl, the Classic Physique bodybuilder has also collaborated to train with William Bonac, Jay Cutler, and others on special occasions.

The Miracle Bear's diet consists of high protein and carbs with some fats. However, the bodybuilder eats six to seven meals a day for most of the year.
