The 2021 Olympia weekend is underway in Orlando, FL. Spectators gathered to see if anyone could take the Classic Physique Olympia throne from two-time defending champion Chris Bumstead in the Classic Physique division. The front runners in contention were the 2020 Olympia runner-up, Terrence Ruffin, and two-time Classic Physique Olympia champion Breon Ansley.
Ultimately, none of the other 29 bodybuilders could match the combination of size and conditioning Bumstead brought to the stage. The Canadian scored his third consecutive Olympia title and became the first-ever to win the Classic Physique Olympia three times.

2021 Olympia Results Thus Far
The Olympia has been somewhat unpredictable this year. Many returning champions were anticipated to have successful defenses on the Olympia stage and lived up to expectations. That was the case with now five-time Figure Olympia champion Cydney Gillon and now two-time Ms. Olympia champion Andrea Shaw.
