Arnold Schwarzenegger [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/arnold-schwarzenegger/] and Ronnie Coleman [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ronnie-coleman/] are the two undisputed kings of bodybuilding [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/bodybuilding/]. With a total of 15 Sandow trophies, the duo has clearly dominated during their eras. One of the biggest regrets of Coleman is that he could never compete alongside Schwarzenegger. One thing that both renowned bodybuilders had in common was that they both advocated lifting super heavy in order to maximize gains. There are numerous videos on the internet of these two beasts lifting incredible weights. Recently, Coleman posted a video on his YouTube reacting to some clips of Arnold Schwarzenegger. YEAH BUDDY…LIGHTWEIGHT! In a recent video that Coleman uploaded on his channel, he reacted to some of the old-school lifts of The Austrian Oak. While Arnold was seen lifting heavy weights, it was Coleman who actually shone brighter. Even looking at such old clips, one could see the energy on Coleman’s face. He continued to hype Arnold up throughout the video which was really wholesome to witness. In the latter part of the video, Coleman was asked, “You see Arnold as the greatest of all time?” To this, he replied by saying, “I don’t know…one of them.” He also concluded the video by revealing that, according to him, the hardest worker in the room was six-time Mr. Olympia Dorian Yates. Rival, and It’s Not Jay Cutler or Flex Wheeler [https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-bodybuilding-news-years-after-retirement-goat-ronnie-coleman-reveals-his-biggest-rival-and-its-not-jay-cutler-or-flex-wheeler/] The fans seemed to enjoy the video through and through and left some beautiful comments as well. THE VIDEO ENTHRALLED THE FANS Both Ronnie Coleman and Arnold Schwarzenegger are two such bodybuilders who have zero haters. Both of them are responsible for popularizing the sport. Witnessing two legends in one frame surely made the fans go crazy. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/WhatsApp-Image-2022-12-01-at-2.39.33-PM.jpeg] While one of the fans wrote, “The GOAT reacting to The GOAT, and I feel like I have just time travelled! Yeah Buddy!”, another user commented, “Imagine these two in their primes in a gym.” Another fan pointed out saying, “Ronnie looked like a little child seeing Arnold lifting.” Another comment read, “What I think I took away from this is Ronnie would an awesome hype man.” One of the fans appreciated Coleman’s responses by writing, “Good reaction sir,” while another user wrote, “Ronnie looking big!” George Bush and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the Most Unexpected Place Leaves Fans in Frenzy [https://www.essentiallysports.com/stories/us-sports-news-its-a-remake-of-twins-viral-image-of-former-president-george-bush-and-arnold-schwarzenegger-in-the-most-unexpected-place-leaves-fans-in-frenzy/] What do you think about the video?

Introducing Sarthak Khanna, a sports writer at EssentiallySports who specializes
in Bodybuilding and other American sports. Sarthak found his calling in
bodybuilding both as a writer as well as a practitioner of the sport. Gawking at
the sight of some of the most aesthetic physiques, the experience was similar to
what Mentzer once acknowledged as an “immediate emotional recognition.” Apart
from the iconic Mike Mentzer, he closely follows the bodybuilding aesthetician
Frank Zane. Sarthak is currently pursuing his bachelor's in Journalism and Mass
Communication. At EssentiallySports, Sarthak has found the sweet spot of
blending his scholarly as well as practical sports knowledge that serves as his
workout of the day. When he is not in the grind, he likes to spend his time
playing GTA, and in fact, takes pride in the fact that he is a rich guy in Los
Santos. At EssentiallySports, we like to call him “The Miracules Writer.”

Out of all the competitions in the world, bodybuilding stays apart as a unique one. Athletes train for years to perfect their bodies and develop muscular mass. Likewise, athletes who train for competitions are understood as bodybuilders. In professional competitions like the Mr. Olympia event, bodybuilders stand on the stage, posing for various parts of their bodies. Judges rank them based on their symmetry, muscularity, size, conditioning, posing, and stage presentation. There are various competitions in bodybuilding but the Mr. Olympia contest stands apart from the rest.

<h2>History of bodybuilding</h2>
Old Greeks became the inspiration for people to start bodybuilding. After that, modern competitions came up from various theatrical acts and other circus acts. They held the first <a href="https://www.britannica.com/sports/bodybuilding" target="_blank" rel="noopener">contest</a> in 1903 in New York. The winner of the competition was Al Treloar and dubbed "The Most Perfectly Developed Man in the World." Significantly, organizers saw potential in that and the start of the Mr. America contest showcased some of the best talents. The rise of various bodybuilders across the globe saw the Mr. Universe event come into place and it became the main event for over 25 years. But, the late 1970s saw Joe Weider come up with a grand plan and create the Mr. Olympia contest.

<h2>Mr. Olympia contest</h2>
The contest that captured the minds of fans was the Mr. Olympia contest under the International Federation of Bodybuilding &amp; Fitness. Weider helps these bodybuilders to earn money by competing in events. They held the first competition on September 18, 1965, at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, New York City. Larry Scott won the first two titles. Moreover, the bodybuilders with the highest number of titles are Lee Haney and Ronnie Coleman. In the meantime, to make their entry into the market, the famous documentary, Pumping Iron, saw the buildup to the 1975 Mr. Olympia contest. It helped athletes like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lou Ferrigno, and Franco Columbu.
<h2>Famous bodybuilders</h2>
There are several bodybuilders to grace the grand stage. But some bodybuilders achieved greatness with their astonishing bodies.
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Arnold Schwarzenegger: </strong></li>
</ul>
The Austrian bodybuilder is one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time. The Austrian Oak is a seven-time bodybuilding champion and became an influential personality in the business. He then transitioned himself to various acting roles, became an investor, and was elected as the Governor of California. Some of his movies like Terminator 2, Commando, Twins, and Conan the Barbarian are some of his classics.
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Ronnie Coleman:</strong></li>
</ul>
Dubbed to be the greatest bodybuilder of all time, Ronnie Coleman put his life and soul into the sport. He is an eight-time Mr. Olympia winner and became the most dominant bodybuilder in the business. Netflix released a documentary featuring his life in the bodybuilding industry. His size and conditioning stood apart from everyone else. A true champion who wore his heart on his sleeve.

Like Coleman, Lee Haney became an eight-time Mr. Olympia champion. He dedicated his body to the sport and was one of the most exciting bodybuilders on stage. Haney had a humongous waist size of 32.5 inches. Therefore, Haney deserves a special mention for his performances.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Arnold Schwarzenegger: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Wife and More</b></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Arnold Schwarzenegger?</b></h2>
A man of many talents, Arnold Schwarzenegger is a true icon. Beginning his legendary career as a bodybuilder, Arnold Schwarzenegger cemented himself in different realms, be it acting, business, or politics. He was once the highest-paid actor in Hollywood, with The Terminator being one of his most famous roles.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Arnold Schwarzeneggerâ€™s early life</b></h2>
On July 30, 1947, Arnold Schwarzenegger was born to a police chief and a homemaker, named Gustav and Aurelia, in a tiny village in Thal, Austria. He grew up in a Catholic household with strict parents. Though he excelled in sports, academically, he was an average student.

Until the age of 14, he played soccer. It was in 1960 that he took his first step toward becoming a bodybuilder when his soccer coach took him to the local gym and introduced him to the world of bodybuilding.

After finishing high school in 1965, Schwarzenegger enlisted himself in the Austrian military. It was here, that he won his first bodybuilding contest, Mr. Junior Europe. Schwarzenegger has never looked back ever since.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Arnold Schwarzenegger's wife and children</b></h2>
While in Austria, Arnold Schwarzenegger's family consisted of four members. Apart from his parents, Schwarzenegger had an elder brother named Meinhard Schwarzenegger, who unfortunately passed away in a traffic collision in 1971 at the age of 24. Years after moving to America, Arnold Schwarzenegger married television journalist and American royalty, Maria Shriver. The wedding took place in Hyannis, Massachusetts on April 26, 1986.

The couple has four children, namely Katherine, Christina, Patrick, and Christopher Schwarzenegger. However, the two ended their marriage and parted ways in 2011 after Schwarzenegger's alleged infidelity came to light. Schwarzenegger fathered a child named Joseph Baena during his extramarital affair with his former housekeeper, Mildred Baena.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Arnold Schwarzeneggerâ€™s career timeline</b></h2>
In 1960, Arnold Schwarzenegger initiated his weight training journey under the guidance of his football coach, who led the team to a local gym. Making a pivotal decision at the age of 14, he opted for bodybuilding as a career over football. Throughout his early years in bodybuilding, Schwarzenegger actively participated in Olympic weightlifting and powerlifting competitions. He marked his professional debut in 1963 and secured victories in weightlifting contests in 1964 and 1965, along with powerlifting triumphs in 1966 and 1968.

Among his early successes was winning the Junior Mr. Europe contest in 1965, followed by claiming the title of Mr. Europe the next year at the age of 19.

While pursuing his bodybuilding career, Arnold Schwarzenegger also gave his childhood dream a shot. In 1969, he landed the role of Hercules in the fantasy comedy, Hercules in New York. However, due to his thick Austrian accent, Schwarzenegger's dialog in his debut movie was dubbed by another actor.

Nearly a decade later, his bodybuilding-centric sports documentary, Pumping Iron, was released in 1977. The movie was well received not only in Hollywood but in the entire bodybuilding world. This film's success turned him into a household name. Apart from Schwarzenegger's popularity, the film also helped popularize bodybuilding.

After this, Schwarzenegger starred in the 1980s film series, Conan The Barbarian. The first installment of the 3-movie film series was released in 1982. Made on a budget of $20 million, the film performed immensely well, earning $68.9-79.1 million at the box office. However, this wasn't the role that helped him break through in the international market.

The Terminator, released in 1984, was what made Arnold Schwarzenegger an internationally acclaimed actor. With a budget of merely $6.4 million, The Terminator grossed a whopping 78.3 million at the box office. Directed by James Cameron, this science fiction movie was well-received by the audience. Its initial success laid the foundation for its next 5 sequels that were released over the next few decades, the last being in 2019.

While it is undoubtedly one of his most famous movies, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-bodybuilding-news-millionaire-arnold-schwarzenegger-admitted-having-lost-25-million-on-a-controversial-movie-despite-it-earning-85-million-at-the-box-office-in-1991/" target="_self" rel="noopener">this wasn't the movie that earned him the heftiest paycheck</a>. The 1988 film named 'Twins' was the one that helped him make the big bucks. However, it wasn't a direct paycheck deal. Instead of getting paid while filming the movie, Schwarzenegger had cracked a deal to have a share of 45% of the profits. With the $18 million movie earning $216 million at the theaters, Schwarzenegger's income is estimated to be around $35-40 million dollars.

Despite his enormous success in the film industry, when the time came to move on to his next endeavor, Arnold Schwarzenegger quit acting. In 2003, Arnold Schwarzenegger pulled the plugs on his acting career in order to try his hands at politics.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's political career officially began in 2003 when he ran for the office of Governor of California. It was a recall election that Schwarzenegger won, and took office for the remaining term (2003-2007) of the then-governor Gray Davis. The Republican Party member was re-elected in 2006 and served another term from 2007 to 2011.

Arnold Schwarzenegger made a comeback to Hollywood and featured in movies such as The Expendables 2, The Last Stand, and Terminator: Dark Fate. He continued to uphold his dedication to bodybuilding and fitness through his collaboration with Lorimer. In recognition of his significant contributions, Schwarzenegger was honored with induction into the inaugural class of the International Sports Hall of Fame in 2012.

In 2023, Arnold Schwarzenegger broadened his fitness initiative by introducing a daily email newsletter for subscribers and unveiling his "Arnoldâ€™s Pump Club" app. Additionally, he became part of the cast for the Netflix series FUBAR and became the focal point of a three-part documentary titled "Arnold," scheduled for release on June 7, 2023.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Arnold Schwarzeneggerâ€™s partnerships and endorsements</b></h2>
Arnold Schwarzenegger endorses several companies, including Dimensional Fund Advisors, Lidl, Planet Hollywood, and State Farm Insurance. I

In 2018, Arnold Schwarzenegger collaborated with basketball player LeBron James to create Ladder, a company focused on developing nutritional supplements designed to assist athletes dealing with severe cramps.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Arnold Schwarzeneggerâ€™s achievements</b></h2>
After the Mr. Junior Europe title, Schwarzenegger won the Mr. Universe title in 1967, followed by three more titles, thereafter. After his win in 1967, he moved to California and trained to compete for Mr. Olympia. He was 23 years old when he won his first Mr. Olympia title in 1970. Those rigorous workouts and training fetched him six consecutive Mr. Olympia titles from 1970 to 1975.

After the 1975 Mr. Olympia title, he retired from bodybuilding and shot his documentary, Pumping Iron. However, he soon returned to bodybuilding in 1980 to compete and won his seventh Mr. Olympia title. With this glorious curtain call, Schwarzenegger moved on from his bodybuilding career.

He grew up in a Catholic household with strict parents. Though he excelled in sports, academically, he was an average student. Until the age of 14, he played soccer. It was in 1960 that he took his first step toward becoming a bodybuilder when his soccer coach took him to the local gym and introduced him to the world of bodybuilding.

The couple has four children, namely Katherine, Christina, Patrick, and Christopher Schwarzenegger.

Additionally, he holds numerous real estate investments and has ownership interests in Dimensional Fund Advisors and Columbusâ€™ Easton Town Center.   Arnold Schwarzeneggerâ€™s career timeline In 1960, Arnold Schwarzenegger initiated his weight training journey under the guidance of his football coach, who led the team to a local gym. Making a pivotal decision at the age of 14, he opted for bodybuilding as a career over football. Throughout his early years in bodybuilding, Schwarzenegger actively participated in Olympic weightlifting and powerlifting competitions. He marked his professional debut in 1963 and secured victories in weightlifting contests in 1964 and 1965, along with powerlifting triumphs in 1966 and 1968. Among his early successes was winning the Junior Mr. Europe contest in 1965, followed by claiming the title of Mr. Europe the next year at the age of 19.

(Photo by Jack Mitchell/Getty Images) While pursuing his bodybuilding career, Arnold Schwarzenegger also gave his childhood dream a shot. In 1969, he landed the role of Hercules in the fantasy comedy, Hercules in New York. However, due to his thick Austrian accent, Schwarzenegger&#8217;s dialog in his debut movie was dubbed by another actor. Nearly a decade later, his bodybuilding-centric sports documentary, Pumping Iron, was released in 1977. The movie was well received not only in Hollywood but in the entire bodybuilding world. This film&#8217;s success turned him into a household name. Apart from Schwarzenegger&#8217;s popularity, the film also helped popularize bodybuilding. After this, Schwarzenegger starred in the 1980s film series, Conan The Barbarian. The first installment of the 3-movie film series was released in 1982. Made on a budget of $20 million, the film performed immensely well, earning $68.9-79.1 million at the box office. However, this wasn&#8217;t the role that helped him break through in the international market. The Terminator, released in 1984, was what made Arnold Schwarzenegger an internationally acclaimed actor. With a budget of merely $6.4 million, The Terminator grossed a whopping 78.3 million at the box office. Directed by James Cameron, this science fiction movie was well-received by the audience. Its initial success laid the foundation for its next 5 sequels that were released over the next few decades, the last being in 2019. While it is undoubtedly one of his most famous movies, this wasn&#8217;t the movie that earned him the heftiest paycheck. The 1988 film named &#8216;Twins&#8217; was the one that helped him make the big bucks. However, it wasn&#8217;t a direct paycheck deal. Instead of getting paid while filming the movie, Schwarzenegger had cracked a deal to have a share of 45% of the profits. With the $18 million movie earning $216 million at the theaters, Schwarzenegger&#8217;s income is estimated to be around $35-40 million dollars. Despite his enormous success in the film industry, when the time came to move on to his next endeavor, Arnold Schwarzenegger quit acting. In 2003, Arnold Schwarzenegger pulled the plugs on his acting career in order to try his hands at politics. Arnold Schwarzenegger&#8217;s political career officially began in 2003 when he ran for the office of Governor of California. It was a recall election that Schwarzenegger won, and took office for the remaining term (2003-2007) of the then-governor Gray Davis. The Republican Party member was re-elected in 2006 and served another term from 2007 to 2011. Arnold Schwarzenegger made a comeback to Hollywood and featured in movies such as The Expendables 2, The Last Stand, and Terminator: Dark Fate. He continued to uphold his dedication to bodybuilding and fitness through his collaboration with Lorimer. In recognition of his significant contributions, Schwarzenegger was honored with induction into the inaugural class of the International Sports Hall of Fame in 2012. In 2023, Arnold Schwarzenegger broadened his fitness initiative by introducing a daily email newsletter for subscribers and unveiling his &#8220;Arnoldâ€™s Pump Club&#8221; app. Additionally, he became part of the cast for the Netflix series FUBAR and became the focal point of a three-part documentary titled &#8220;Arnold,&#8221; scheduled for release on June 7, 2023. Arnold Schwarzeneggerâ€™s partnerships and endorsements Arnold Schwarzenegger endorses several companies, including Dimensional Fund Advisors, Lidl, Planet Hollywood, and State Farm Insurance. I In 2018, Arnold Schwarzenegger collaborated with basketball player LeBron James to create Ladder, a company focused on developing nutritional supplements designed to assist athletes dealing with severe cramps. Arnold Schwarzeneggerâ€™s achievements After the Mr. Junior Europe title, Schwarzenegger won the Mr. Universe title in 1967, followed by three more titles, thereafter. After his win in 1967, he moved to California and trained to compete for Mr. Olympia. He was 23 years old when he won his first Mr. Olympia title in 1970. Those rigorous workouts and training fetched him six consecutive Mr. Olympia titles from 1970 to 1975. After the 1975 Mr. Olympia title, he retired from bodybuilding and shot his documentary, Pumping Iron. However, he soon returned to bodybuilding in 1980 to compete and won his seventh Mr. Olympia title. With this glorious curtain call, Schwarzenegger moved on from his bodybuilding career.

On May 13, 1964, Ronnie Coleman was born to Jessie Benton in the American State of Louisiana. Coleman also has two elder siblings named Alain Lemieux and Richard Lemieux.</span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">In the early years of his life, Ronnie Coleman was as distant from bodybuilding as possible. In college, he used to play football as a middle linebacker. After completing his graduation with a BSc in accounting, Coleman failed to land a job in the domain. He then started working at a local Domino's Pizza outlet. Due to his poor financial conditions, Ronnie would eat the complimentary pizza every day. In 1989, Ronnie joined as a police officer in Arlington, Texas.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Ronnie Colemanâ€™s wife and children</b></h2>

However, owing majorly to various surgeries and depleting physical health, Coleman now does not endorse anyone else's products anymore. But he has not stayed completely away from connecting with the public through products. Coleman launched his product line called the Ronnie Coleman Signature series in 2011. Myo-Blitz, Resurrect-PM, Testogen-XR, and Pro-Antium are some of his products. As of 2024, Ronnie's net worth is estimated to be around $2 million.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Ronnie Colemanâ€™s career timeline</b></h2>
Ronnie Coleman's journey in bodybuilding is a tale of remarkable achievements and an unwavering pursuit of excellence.

Commencing in the early 1990s, it was in 1998 that he secured his inaugural Mr Olympia title, signaling the commencement of a new era in bodybuilding. His unparalleled dominance in this competition endured, claiming the title for an unprecedented eight consecutive years, spanning from 1998 to 2005.

Throughout his competitive career, Coleman amassed numerous victories. His triumph at the Canada Pro Cup in 1995 marked his initial major professional win, laying the foundation for subsequent successes.

In the coming years, Coleman kept improving his ranks at a steady pace.

In 1998, when Dorian Yates retired, Kenneth Wheeler was the favorite to win the coveted title. But Ronnie had other plans as he edged Wheeler by three points to win his first-ever Mr. Olympia title. By doing so, he also became only the 10th man to win the competition. For the next seven years, Coleman successfully defended his title. The eight consecutive titles meant Coleman would tie Lee Haney to become the winningest Mr. Olympia ever. In 2006, Jay Cutler defeated Ronnie to dethrone 'The King,' who eventually retired in 2007.

Ronnie Coleman

Ronnie Coleman: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, wife and more  Who is Ronnie Coleman?Â  Ronnie Coleman, an American retired professional bodybuilder, secured the Mr. Olympia title for eight consecutive years, solidifying his status as one of the most illustrious figures in bodybuilding history. In addition to his eight Mr. Olympia victories, Coleman holds the record for the most wins as an IFBB professional, amassing a total of 26 titles. Ronnie Colemanâ€™s early life Apart from beingÂ the KingÂ of the bodybuilding world, Coleman has been a loving son, husband, and father. On May 13, 1964, Ronnie Coleman was born to Jessie Benton in the American State of Louisiana. Coleman also has two elder siblings named Alain Lemieux and Richard Lemieux. In the early years of his life, Ronnie Coleman was as distant from bodybuilding as possible. In college, he used to play football as a middle linebacker. After completing his graduation with a BSc in accounting, Coleman failed to land a job in the domain. He then started working at a local Domino&#8217;s Pizza outlet. Due to his poor financial conditions, Ronnie would eat the complimentary pizza every day. In 1989, Ronnie joined as a police officer in Arlington, Texas. Coleman worked as a police officer until 2000 and remained a reserve officer until 2003. Ronnie Colemanâ€™s wife and children Throughout his life, Ronnie Coleman has married twice. He first married a French-Lebanese personal trainer, Rouaida Christine Achkar, on 28th December 2007. Before their wedding, the couple had been in a relationship for nine years. However, soon after their wedding, the couple called it quits. It was not until nearly a decade later that Coleman gave relationships another chance. He dated another personal trainer, named Susan Williamson. After dating for a short time, the couple tied the knot on April 11, 2016. Additionally, Ronnie Coleman is a proud father to eight kids. His two eldest daughters, Jamileah and Valencia, are from his first marriage with Achkar. He has four children from his second marriage. His two sons are from Williamsons&#8217; previous relationship, whereas, the two youngest daughters are fathered by Coleman. The birth information of two of his children is not known. Ronnie Coleman&#8217;s net worth 2024 Bodybuilding icon Ronnie Coleman during his prime days, had many sponsorships and endorsement deals. However, owing majorly to various surgeries and depleting physical health, Coleman now does not endorse anyone else&#8217;s products anymore. But he has not stayed completely away from connecting with the public through products. Coleman launched his product line called the Ronnie Coleman Signature series in 2011. Myo-Blitz, Resurrect-PM, Testogen-XR, and Pro-Antium are some of his products. As of 2024, Ronnie&#8217;s net worth is estimated to be around $2 million. Despite the contentious debate surrounding his use of steroids, Ronnie Coleman has adeptly grown his wealth through diverse revenue streams. His lucrative sales of training videos have played a pivotal role in bolstering his net worth. Furthermore, he has garnered approximately $500,000 from lucrative endorsement agreements. Ronnie Colemanâ€™s career timeline Ronnie Coleman&#8217;s journey in bodybuilding is a tale of remarkable achievements and an unwavering pursuit of excellence. Commencing in the early 1990s, it was in 1998 that he secured his inaugural Mr Olympia title, signaling the commencement of a new era in bodybuilding. His unparalleled dominance in this competition endured, claiming the title for an unprecedented eight consecutive years, spanning from 1998 to 2005. Throughout his competitive career, Coleman amassed numerous victories. His triumph at the Canada Pro Cup in 1995 marked his initial major professional win, laying the foundation for subsequent successes. Notably, his exceptional performance in the Arnold Classic, another esteemed event in the bodybuilding realm, solidified his legacy as a formidable athlete.  In 1991, Coleman won one of the most coveted amateur bodybuilder competitions in the world. He won the crown at the 1991 Mr. Universe competition, automatically qualifying for the biggest competition of them all â€“ Mr. Olympia. But success did not come easy here. In his first year of competing in Mr. Olympia, Ronnie did not even rank. He finished in 15th place in 1994. The following year, Coleman improved by five places and finished 10th. In the coming years, Coleman kept improving his ranks at a steady pace. In 1998, when Dorian Yates retired, Kenneth Wheeler was the favorite to win the coveted title. But Ronnie had other plans as he edged Wheeler by three points to win his first-ever Mr. Olympia title. By doing so, he also became only the 10th man to win the competition. For the next seven years, Coleman successfully defended his title. The eight consecutive titles meant Coleman would tie Lee Haney to become the winningest Mr. Olympia ever. In 2006, Jay Cutler defeated Ronnie to dethrone &#8216;The King,&#8217; who eventually retired in 2007. Ronnie Colemanâ€™s partnerships and endorsements Ronnie Coleman garnered sponsorship from numerous companies, such as ABB, MetX, and Weider, in 2005. The same year, he also signed a multi-million-dollar contract sponsorship deal with Bio-Engineered Supplements &amp; Nutrition, Inc. (BSN). Along with these he also signed up to model on the front pages of several fitness magazines, including Flex and Muscle. Featured on the covers of major bodybuilding magazines, he traveled globally for speaking engagements and promotions, presenting a plethora of opportunities throughout his career. Notable videos showcasing his training and daily routines include &#8220;The Unbelievable,&#8221; &#8220;The Cost of Redemption,&#8221; and &#8220;On The Road.&#8221; Filmmaker Vlad Yudin, renowned for &#8220;Generation Iron,&#8221; created a documentary titled &#8220;Ronnie Coleman: The King,&#8221; which is available on Netflix. In 2011, the eight-time Mr. Olympia ventured into entrepreneurship with the establishment of his startup, Ronnie Coleman Nutrition. Drawing on years of experience with top-tier supplements, he introduced the Ronnie Coleman Signature Series in 2012, featuring a range of sports nutritional products. A decade since its inception, the company has become a key player in the industry, offering notable supplements like the Yeah Buddy pre-workout powder, King Test 8X, and King Whey Protein. Their product lineup extends beyond sports-specific supplements to include everyday items like multivitamins. Additionally, the company sells energy bars and a variety of apparel, including t-shirts, hoodies, headgear, and tank tops.

He first hurt his back while powerlifting when he was in high school. This was followed but another injury while playing football in college. But, a major blow came when Coleman herniated a disc while working out in 1996. Furthermore, not attending to the injury and only visiting a chiropractor to relieve the pain worsened Coleman&#8217;s condition. It wasn&#8217;t until his retirement in 2007 that the bodybuilding beast decided to seek medical help.  Since then, Ronnie Coleman has undergone 13 surgeries, performed on his neck, hips, back, shoulder, etc. These surgeries also include two hip replacement surgeries. Moreover, years of high-intensity workouts and multiple surgeries have resulted in Coleman losing his mobility partially. However, the fighter in him hasn&#8217;t given up yet. Coleman believes that with his determination he&#8217;ll be able to heal himself and walk again. Furthermore, to aid the process, the King has also resorted to stem cell treatment.
