2024 Flex Weekend Pro Results: Athletes Who Won Mr. Olympia 2024 Qualification

The 2024 competitive season has been in full swing since March. With the 2024 Mr. Olympia set to take place on 10th October, pro bodybuilders are looking for every opportunity to qualify for the Super Bowl of Bodybuilding. The 2024 Flex Weekend Pro Italy gave them the most recent opportunity to earn their Olympia tickets.

Over 80 professional bodybuilding competitors participated in the IFBB Pro League contest. The Mr. Olympia hopefuls gathered in Milan, Italy to compete for their ticket to the most prestigious annual contest on bodybuilding. However, the only four IFBB pros earned their tickets to Las Vegas on June 23rd.

Two men earned their Mr. Olympia qualification

The Flex Weekend Pro had four pro bodybuilding divisions and open bodybuilding was the most anticipated. Open bodybuilding was the smallest division at the contest with 12 competitors. However, that didn’t mean it wasn’t competitive. Fans were excited to witness bodybuilding veterans Nathan De Asha and Behrooz Tabani battle for their Mr. Olympia spot.

Tabani and De Asha immediately drew everyone’s attention. While they stood out among the competition, judges struggled to choose the winner between the evenly matched duo. However, Behrooz Tabani’s muscle fullness and conditioning earned him the victory. While Nathan De Asha arguably had the better lower body, he couldn’t match the Iranian’s upper body fullness or conditioning. While Tabani couldn’t win in Spain, he earned his third consecutive Olympia qualification in Italy.
