The New York Pro is just five days away. Former Arnold Classic Champion Nick Walker dubbed the Mutant, is among athletes set to give their all. He will finally be competing on the pro stage, having spent the first half of the year recovering from a hamstring injury. Walker will make a much-anticipated and confident comeback courtesy of his coach Matt Jansen. 

The famous Instagram page “bisandtris” posted a physique update of the former Arnold Classic Champion just five days out of the New York Pro. In a series of reactions, online fitness coach and YouTuber Marc Lobliner was left stunned, taking a glimpse of the Mutant’s current update. Lobliner found Walker’s physique fascinating and commented, “Unbelievable.”

The post had two images, both showcasing the gigantic back of the former Arnold Classic Champion. The next image showcased the improvements Walker has made since his appearance on the 2022 Mr. Olympia stage, where he placed third. The next image is from the guest posing he did at the Pittsburgh Pro Show 2024 last Saturday night. 

Both images displayed the rear lat spread pose, and the improvements can be easily noticed by anyone. Walker has done quite a bit of work on his physique. He is all set for a comeback to the game with his new and improved physique to boggle everyone’s mind. Not only did Marc Lobliner praise the Mutant’s improvements, but the Exercise Scientist also did the same. 

The bodybuilding critic praised Walker for his improvements

A few days ago, Dr. Mike Israetel, aka the Exercise Scientist, was invited to Dr. Pak’s podcast, where they engaged in conversation about the Mutant. They talked about how Walker has made improvements throughout his journey to attain perfection. The Exercise Scientist considers the former New York Pro champion the perfect example of investing time and effort properly in themselves.

Walker may not have good genetics, and the former professor agrees with this and says, “Pictures from his first show, and he knows this; he looks like sh*t; he’s some kid with like, you look like awful genetics; years later, he’s Nick Walker.” The years Walker invested in himself made him what he is today. The Exercise Scientist concluded and said, “If people aren’t interested in putting in time and effort, you know, before the genomics revolution, where you just take a viral vector and you’re Jack the next day before that happens, there is just no negotiating it.”
