Wheels, who is very active on social media, posted a special video from his recent activity. His followers were amused to see the legendary Coleman standing beside Wheels while he was training at the gym.

In the video shared by Wheels on Instagram, Mr. Olympia appears to be cheering and pushing the former to complete his workout set. Wheels captioned the video and said, “Only @ronniecoleman can get me excited for leg extension.” It was not the only video of Coleman training with Wheels. In another video shared by Wheels, the two bodybuilders were having some fun together at the gym. In that video, Coleman, who is in weak health, was seen knighting Wheels with his clutches.

The video depicts how experienced athletes inspire and guide youngsters to train hard even off the stage. Currently, Coleman is suffering due to multiple surgeries and other health issues. Ronnie seems to have lost most of his mobility. This is due to a herniated disk which was caused by his extremely heavy and strict workout routine post-diagnosis and also because of some complications during his surgeries.
