The New York Pro Champ decided to pursue a career in bodybuilding, much to his legendary father’s point of contention, and is not leaving any stone unturned to be his best for the upcoming competitions. Despite his health issues, the Cuban-American is not backing out from an intense workout regime which is reflected on his Instagram grid. In a recent post, the Myth’s son shared photos of his pumped-up version. One of the photos from the carousel shows him in a double bicep pose with spectacular veiny arms.

Oliva Jr. had been away from training sessions for quite some time after suffering from nerve damage in his hand, back in 2020 which had been a major impediment to his bodybuilding career. The initial pain in the hand was aggrieved after sleeping over it and needed medical intervention. Consequently, he disappeared from the bodybuilding arena for two years. But while planning for a comeback, Sergio Jr. suffered a mental breakdown after being detained in a car accident case in Dubai.
