“The Single Most Important Factor”: Bodybuilder With Down Syndrome Spills the Beans on Training Style That Helps Him in His Fitness Journey

For the longest time, bodybuilding has been considered a sport where genetic beasts can compete against each other. Yet over time, people with a passion for the sport often break through the stereotype and work hard enough to fill the gap of advantages they were not bestowed with. Kyle Landi is one of the most prominent examples, who is a bodybuilder with Down Syndrome. Recently, he revealed the most important thing about his workout sessions.

The 23-year-old from Canada is the only athlete from his nation who has taken part in competitive bodybuilding. In 2023, Landi was invited to Arnold Classics as a special guest. This bodybuilder shares valuable tips to inspire others who doubt themselves and question their worth. Just as he did in a recent social media post.

The most important factor: Kyle Landi

Kyle Landi recently posted a video of himself heavy lifting and in the caption of his post, he revealed the most important factor in his fitness routine. He began by stating that he was practicing his form with coach Cody Amey. Then Landi explained, “In my training, form is the single most important factor followed by time under tension.”

The bodybuilder also shed light on the fact that he likes to prep before doing something drastic suddenly. Revealing how he prefers to have a lightweight before his transition into a heavier one, he stated, “Keeping weight light so my execution with heavy weight is performed properly minimizing risk.”

Kyle Landi has inspired his entire fandom and also had a chance to train with one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time, Ronnie Coleman. During his training session with the living legend, while Landi showed gratitude, his fans supported him to no end. They boosted confidence despite having a genetically disadvantageous condition for his career in bodybuilding.

But to prove everyone wrong, several athletes are coming up to follow their passions despite having the condition. Kyle Landi is one such bodybuilder, as he slowly transitions into his fittest form he would find the entire fitness community cheering on him.
