Ronnie Coleman is known as one of the idols that contemporary bodybuilders look up to. His determination knows no bounds. Be that as a bodybuilder who broke all records, or a human who fought for his life and came out strong after life-changing surgeries. 

Ronnie Coleman always thought he was gonna lose

 When the interviewer asked him if he ever got c*cky, the 8 times in a row Mr. Olympia winner had an interesting answer “Nah, never got c*cky,” he said. “I thought every year that they gonna get away from me.” 

Despite being the best, Coleman faced competition from the likes of Jay Curter, and later, Arnold Schwarzenegger. He never had room for thinking that he is the best. “I’m working harder and harder every year trying to hold on to that thing,” he continued.

Knowing that it is a lifelong commitment, he knew that he can’t lose. Upon being asked how he tried to improve every year, The King said that he worked diligently on his “condition.”
