COLUMBUS, Ohio (May 25, 2021) - The world’s best bodybuilders and the fittest men and women on the planet will battle for $412,000 in prize money when the 2021 Arnold Classic and related IFBB Pro League contests return to Columbus, Ohio on Saturday, Sept. 25.
“It is important to offer full prize money at the Arnold Classic this year,” co-founder and promoter Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said. “The athletes deserve to be rewarded for their hard work and dedication during this difficult year. We promise to make this year’s Arnold Classic one to remember.”
The Arnold Classic men’s bodybuilding championships, held annually since 1989, is the marquee event of the Arnold Sports Festival, the multi-sport festival founded by Schwarzenegger and Jim Lorimer as a one-day celebration of professional bodybuilding and physique sports.
This year’s Arnold Classic will pay homage to its roots as competitors in the Arnold Classic and three other IFBB Pro League events � Arnold Classic Physique, Fitness International and Bikini IInternational compete for bodybuilding’s most prestigious prize on the Battelle Grand stage at the Greater Columbus Convention Center.
The 2021 Arnold Sports Festival, originally scheduled for March, was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“The Arnold Classic has been held for 32 consecutive years and it would be unthinkable to go a year without providing the athletes the opportunity to compete,” Schwarzenegger said. “My support of the sport of bodybuilding is enormous and, with the help of our sponsors, we are committed to making this year’s Arnold Classic a tremendous success.”

Nice time of year to have it. Nice weather in Columbus in late September. Hopefully, no home Buckeye game that weekend or you won't be able to move at all.

The Arnold would be cool as they have all kinds of different events to see

These guys have ugly looking physiques nick walker is not anything pretty to look like

Yeah Nicks legs are probably not the poster image for the "sport".
And what's with Ians calves. It looks like someone took a slicer and shopped of his gastrocnemius...
-
How did Kuklo with the best calves on stage, loses to Iain with the worst calves on the show and possibly in the building ?
Is the Arnold classic judge from the knees up ?
WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LE VRO NEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
-

OMG. That was Gold
On a serious note Arnold, Dennis James, and others definitely want to to see the lower leg veins removed

Ian, 2nd place:

Kuclo was robbed
As for that 5 foot abomination

I don't know who "Ian" is but he has the weirdest calves I've ever seen in bbing.

This is just horrible....nobody up there looked good. The sport is actively moving in the opposite direction 90% of the people say it should be going.
