212 Athletes to Watch

Many fans will be watching the 212 contest, and these three contenders go into the show as early favorites to earn the 212 Olympia qualification.

Obenrocksman Arrah

Obenrocksman Arrah is coming off a silver-medal finish at the 2024 AGP Pro All Stars event in Gyeonggi State, South Korea, on Sunday, Sept. 29, 2024, won by Zhaofeng He. Arrah will be on the hunt for his first Olympia qualification and stands a good chance of getting it here.

Hoyeon Jang

Hoyeon Jang ranked fifth at the AGP Pro All Stars show via big improvements from his rookie campaign in 2023. Jang could be a force in this show if he does not hold as much water so he can reveal the definition and conditioning the judges are looking for.

In Seong You

This competitor has competed in the 212, Classic Physique, and Men’s Open divisions throughout his career. His only Olympia appearance came in 2021 at the Classic Physique Olympia, where he finished tied for 16th. His most recent 212 contest was the 2023 edition of this contest, where he ranked eighth overall.
