Mr. Olympia is a goal that most bodybuilders daydream about. They spend their time and effort and forget about a normal lifestyle just to take part in the most prestigious bodybuilding contest. When these bodybuilders get the chance to finally stand on the stage, they rejoice over it. But things like visa rejections can burst their bubble in the blink of an eye.
Not one, or two, but many bodybuilders did not get to go up on stage this Mr. Olympia season. Among the list, English bodybuilders Nathan De Asha and Behrooz Tabani are considered two of the most promising contestants who were left out. As Milos Sarcev sent them his best wishes and prayers, the bodybuilders returned his good intentions.

In return, Tabani shared the post and sent back his heartfelt gratitude towards the former Serbian bodybuilder and at present, his coach, Milos Sarcev. He captioned the post by writing the following words: “The Best Coach”.
