1995 Onstage with Kevin Levrone!

Here we are at the Atlanta Civic Center for the 1995 Mr. Olympia, my fifth Olympia contest and would be my fourth consecutive triumph.

I came across this particular photo and it took me back to one of the FIBO expos in Germany. Myself and Kevin actually trained together one morning, in fact I think he was the only competitor who I trained with during my career!

I had arranged for a local gym owner to open up his place early so that I could train and I met Kevin in the hotel and we agreed to train together. Most guys didn’t train at all during FIBO, so it was just us two.
We headed off to the gym and it reminded me of Temple Gym back home, it was a dark, cold gym and we had AC/DC blasting through the speakers to fire us up.

Kevin was incredibly strong, his strength levels impressed me and he was probably stronger than me on chest and shoulders. Anyway, I showed Kevin how I did bent over rows, which had been a staple in my routine for years (although I did the underhand version until 1994) and he did keep up with myself which not many people did back then!

So at the next years Olympia, Kevin turned up with a drastically improved back! I should’ve kept my methods to myself a bit more!

I was always willing to share information however… but I did keep a few tricks up my sleeve, especially backstage during the pre-contest.
