Mr. Olympia is one of the most prestigious events in the realm of bodybuilding. Elite bodybuilders spend over six months prepping to bag the title for themselves every year and the win is one of the most decorated and celebrated ones all year long. However, it is sad to see that despite all the preparation and hard work, some are unable to make it to the stage.

In the 2023 Mr. Olympia championship, almost eight athletes, who have great abilities to compete, will be unable to participate on the stage because of visa issues. Well, the announcement of the Brazilian bodybuilder, this time, clicked a nerve in the fitness community with so many restrictions. 

Halanny Jully will not be competing in the Olympia

The official Instagram page of Bis and Tris, @bisandtris and @bisandtrisnation, shared a picture of the Brazilian bodybuilder posing in a shimmery purple bikini set, and she looked absolutely gorgeous in her perfectly muscular and ripped physique. The amount of hard work that she put into her transformation is clearly visible in the picture.

However, her hard work will not pay off, the reason being the USA’s visa policies. Just like the Iranian bodybuilder, she too will not be able to reach the stage of Mr. Olympia 2023 because she was denied a visa. On the picture, they wrote, “Brazil’s Halanna Jully to miss out on the 2023 Mr. Olympia following a denied visa request.”
