Bodybuilding‘s most prestigious award has to be Mr. Olympia. Every year, countless people strive to secure their position in its race, but only the best can make the cut. However, as the rulebook goes, IFBB makes its amendments, which often stand as a wall between hundreds of dreams. The two-time Classic Physique title holder, Breon Ansley, had to stop competing in the run due to the then-imposed weight requirements.

As the latest news pops up regarding yet another rule alteration, Ansley addresses his fans on Instagram. Breon Ansley reportedly shared his excitement and sent regards to his fans, who had given him the good news. He clarified how he is likely to get back into the competition.

In a recent Instagram reel, Ansley records a video while practicing his poses. Right after discovering the news of the changed IFFB rule – which has raised the weight requirements for shorter height in Classic Physique by 7 pounds – he says, “Pretty Ironic” and continues, “It would be an entirely different look for me on stage.” He shows extreme determination and declares that he would be discussing with the team to reevaluate his current state and how to improve it for the better.

Highly enthusiastic, Breon hardly can weight to get back into a routine. He thus rushes to bid goodbye to his fans, and remarks, “We gotta get back to work, still. Regardless of what we are gonna do.”

Breon’s weight and how it affects the Classic Physique race of Mr. Olympia

Previously, according to the IFBB rules, Breon Ansley could weigh only up to a maximum of 185 lbs in a 5’7 height frame which is a major reason why he claimed to have retired from Mr. Olympia. However, as the new sets of rules stir up the wind, the weight requirement has been increased to 192 lbs at the same height. In his caption, Ansley writes, “It does get interesting! The increase in the weight cap would put me at 187lbs guys; however, I might not have to cut water so heavy so I could weigh in at 192lbs because I wouldn’t lose as much height!”
