This will not be the first time the bodybuilding Titan Mike O’Hearn has stirred up debates or called out a fellow coach. This time O’Hearn called out the IFBB Pro Coach Greg Doucette for having a below-average physique. He even called him a “Monkey” and a “Hobbit.“
A few days ago, O’Hearn had uploaded a video pointing out he has a better physique than some 30-year-old “Guru“, in a veiled dig at Doucette. He even challenged the IFBB Pro to do cardio and walk. Responding to O’Hearn, Doucette has now made a video to reply to the Titan. Let’s find out how he responded to the Titan’s accusations.

The former powerlifter had said in his video, “I’m going to absolutely destroy some of these 30-year-old gurus; they talk about training, and they’re not even in shape anymore.” However, the IFBB Pro coach had a correction to make, telling O’Hearn that he was 48 years old now. Then he expressed his love for cycling and asked a question: “How many think that Michael O’Hearn could beat coach Greg in a bike race?” He had an answer himself and said, “I’ll spot him 10 miles.“
Futher, Doucette challenged the former Mr. California for a bike race, saying, “I could race Mike on Zwift; we’ll enter his body weight as a 125-pound female; I’ll write in 185-pound coach Greg.” He continued, “We’ll divide his weight in two. The heavy you are, the slower you go on a bike. We’ll divide his weight in two. We’ll have a bike race. Can you, in fact, keep up? I don’t think so.”
“Mike, who’s actually in shape, and how are we judging fitness? Are we going to judge it by blood work?” Doucette showcased his readiness to take a blood test. “I am 100% down to do this, and you know why, and at any time, well, because I can prove that I’m not abusing performance-enhancing drugs, you’ll see my testosterone levels always within range, never even bordering on too high,” he explained.

On the other hand. the four-time Mr. Universe had more criticism to offer. Let us see what that was.
Is Coach Doucette’s physique poorer than that of people in their 70s?
In the video, one could see how O’Hearn called Doucette’s physique worse than the elderly. “So don’t go. Oh, he’s in good he’s not in good shape, guys. There are girls and guys walking around in here, 50, 60, 70 years old, that are tenfold better than him,” O”Hearn said. In reply, Doucette slammed the former powerlifter, calling him tenfold worse than the people in their 70s.

He highlighted that tenfold means ten times on the logarithmic scale. Doucette questioned O’Hearn, “Did Michael Hearn know that I mean I went to school, I literally taught science, I have a master’s degree, but oh, I have no intelligence, I just read from a prompter script, I just regurgitate?“
What are your views on this matter? Do you think O’Hearn will accept the cardio and the blood test challenge given by Doucette and show the world how fit he is despite being 55? Let us know in the comments.
