Nick Walker and Derek Lunsford 5 weeks before Mr. Olympia 2023

Derek Lunsford is the 2021 212 Olympia champion. In 2022, it was suspected that Derek was considering a move to the Men's Open division. Derek Lunsford made a guest appearance in Pittsburgh in 2022, which blew fans away. After impressing fans with his guest posing, Olympia offered him a special invitation to compete in the Men's Open shortly thereafter. When Derek Lunsford stepped on stage at the Mr. Olympia 2022 competition, he exceeded expectations and came in second place. Now Lunsford is a prime candidate for this year's Olympia and plans to bring with him a delicate balance of symmetry and fitness.
