Little big man Shaun Clarida shows his form and trains his back and biceps
Author: When in 2020 Shaun Clarida, who is only 157 cm tall and is therefore called a "pocket bodybuilder", dominated the Olympia 212 Showdown, it was considered a complete sensation! He defeated Derek Lunsford, who was considered the successor of seven-time champion James "Flex" Lewis.
Last year's edition was dominated by Derek, and Shaun had to settle for second place.
Shaun was disappointed, of course, but he managed to improve his mood very soon. Just 14 days later, he decided to try his luck among the heavyweights in the Open category, among whom he competed in the Legion Sports Fest Pro 2021. It was not a bad competition, as Regan Grimes and Sergio Oliva Jr.
He followed up his semifinal performance with the words:
I'm a "Giant Killer"! I'm in seventh heaven with what's going on right now. It looks like I'm fighting for a top 3 finish in my Open debut! But the work is not over yet. I still have one more round to go!
At that moment, he had no idea that he would be able to cope with the whole 16-man competition and live up to his nickname "The Giant Killer". He not only won the triumph, but also the ticket to Mr. Olympia 2022!
However, the current rules do not allow a competitor to compete in two events at the same time during the Olympia Weekend, so Shaun had to decide whether to compete in Mr. Olympia 2022 or 212 Olympia 2022.
The decision fell on the latter option, which is to compete at 212 Olympia 2022. Shaun states that his plan A is to win back the title for the winner of this event. He then adds in the same breath that he has no plan B!
You can check out his back and biceps workout below, which he adds a few tips of his own. The first one, for example, is that he considers the hunches to be the absolute foundation in developing the back muscles, which is why he starts every workout of this muscle area with this exercise.
You can also judge his current form, which he shared on his Instagram tribute.
