So friends welcome to today’s new blog and today I have brought for you all the updates of the pre-judging of Mr Olympia 2025 men’s physique division.
And today we are going to talk about what exactly happened during this pre-judging from the beginning till the end, comparisons, individual rounds and which athletes came in the final callout,
We are going to talk about all these things, without wasting any time let’s start today’s blog.
BILAL ALI INDIVIDUAL ROUND POSING ROUTINE
So friends, first of all I would like to talk about the individual rounds and the first bodybuilder I am going to talk about is Bilal Ali.
Bilal Ali comes here to present his individual round and he can be seen with extremely dark tanning which can be a good thing or a bad thing and see Bilal Ali.
Says before the contest starts that my competitors will come with 3rd or 2nd callout condition, I will come so sharp and creamy.
So has Bilal Ali fulfilled that statement? But here I would like to say that Bilal Ali’s physique looks very good, he looks quite conditioned, you can see every detail on his mid section.
Although I felt that Bilal Ali has not reached his fuller version, his delts which were popping in Arnold classic were not his hard physique.
This version of Bilal Ali in Arnold classic was extremely conditioned or less fuller version, so this is the first impression of Bilal Ali.
RYAN TERRY INDIVIDUAL ROUND POSING ROUTINE
So friends, after Bilal Ali, see Ryan Terry coming on stage very hyped up and I read some comments, some people were saying that Ryan Terry is the Chris Bumstead on men’s physique division.
Meaning Ryan Terry appears so dominating to people, now the face of Ryan Terry is not that, I want to show you people, that suffering.
You will see those things on Ryan Terry’s face, as Ryan Terry was telling that he did not prepare for this, he did not skip a single meal, he kept everything on point.
Ryan Terry worked day and night, Ryan Terry prepared for this stage So that result can be clearly seen on their faces.
Ryan Terry is on another level in terms of conditioning. This version of Ryan Terry looks much better than the last version. So friends, this is some first impression of Ryan Terry.
JEREMY BUENDIA INDIVIDUAL ROUND POSING ROUTINE
So friends, after Ryan Terry, Jeremy Buendia comes on stage. This is a new era Jeremy. He definitely comes big in size but his mid-section is not his strong point.
It seems that Jeremy has held water on his mid-section. If we compare him with his competitors who are more dangerous, sharper and have a drier mid-section than him.
Then it becomes a problem for Jeremy Buendia. He does not appear as dangerous and freaky in his updates as Jeremy does in his updates.
It becomes a little difficult for him to bring that peak on stage. A bigger version of Jeremy definitely came here.
Yes, but it’s a bit difficult to say that a better version came out, so friends, these are some first impressions from Jeremy Buendia.
ANDREI DEIU INDIVIDUAL ROUND POSING ROUTINE
So friends, after Jeremy Buendia, Andrei Deiu comes on stage. His fans definitely call him the Instagram bodybuilder.
But I would like to say that this physique of Andrei is not an Instagram physique, he looks equally great on stage as well and he has proved that he can look great on stage as well.
Just look at the physique, shoulders of Andrei are popping here, his body looks well conditioned here, there is a polished look on the body and after that we move on to Andrei’s back.
And you guys will see how big and how dangerous his back is. It is visible here but friends, these are some first impressions from Andrei Deiu.
ERIN BANKS INDIVIDUAL ROUND POSING ROUTINE
So friends, after Andrei Deiu, Erin Banks comes on stage. Erin Banks was a big sight here, but here we saw a watery Erin Banks, he definitely was, but her body did not look dry here.
Her body was not peeled like that of her competitors. Erin Banks’ version was reminding me of something like Samson Dauda’s Arnold Classic version.
Now you all will say this thing that why are you comparing men’s physique athletes with open bodybuilders because the same thing happened with Samson Dauda.
​​He also came with a very round, fuller version inside the Arnold Classic and very watery. It seemed that he was not ripped, the same thing can be seen here with the erin banks.
Full round muscle but there was no sharpness on his body, so friends, this is the first impression we get from the side of the erin banks.
BRANDON HENDRICKSON INDIVIDUAL ROUND POSING ROUTINE
So friends, after Erin Banks, Brandon Hendrickson came on stage here. I read a comment in which someone said that he looks like an iPhone.
We haven’t seen any changes in him in 5 years, but I would like to say that we have seen a better version of Brandon.
And if we talk about changes, Brandon is not known for changes, but his body looks refined and conditioned here.
Now the question is, will his haters like Bilal Ali be able to beat his mid-section and will Brandon be able to beat Ryan Terry’s back?
Friends, these are some first impressions that we get to see from Brandon Hendrickson.
FIRST CALLOUT TOP 9 BODYBUILDERS
So friends, now let’s move straight to the callouts and look inside the first callout. There are a total of 9 callouts.
Three bodybuilders are placed in the middle, which are Brandon Hendrickson, Bilal Ali, and Ryan Terry. You can also see Andrei Deiu inside the callout.
Now friends, look at Andrei Deiu’s call, he was telling his coach that his goal was to crack the first callout in the Olympia, and he has done it. So I am very happy for Andrei Deiu that he has cracked the first callout.
And this is not a callout, it is an odd number callout, that is There was a callout of 9 bodybuilders, so who was in the middle here, in the middle was Ryan Terry i.e..
The current Mr Olympia champion and when the first callout ends then Ryan Terry, Bilal Ali and Brandon Hendrickson are sent back and they will be called for the final callout.
All the remaining bodybuilders are compared in the second callout, friends I would not like to waste any time here and I would like to talk straight about the final callout here.
FINAL CALLOUT TOP 4 BODYBUILDERS
So friends, let’s now move on to the Siddha final callout. Friends, the final callout is between a total of 4 bodybuilders whose names are Ryan Terry, Bilal Ali, Brandon Hendrickson and Erin Banks.
These are our top 4 bodybuilders. In this callout, it can be seen that Ryan Terry’s conditioning can be seen, he has brought the next level of conditioning here.
But I would like to say that since last year, the package that he has brought has improved a lot, he has come more conditioned, a much harder version of it is visible here.
But here I can safely say that Ryan Terry is defending his title. Even in the pre-judging, I think overall I like Erin Banks’ back a lot more here in this entire callout.
And if we compare Bilal Ali and Ryan Terry’s backs, I would prefer Bilal Ali’s back because he looks more dense here. However, Ryan Terry still has the width and conditioning.
Ryan Terry looks very impressive here. If we talk about Mr. Olympia last year, Ryan Terry was losing. From his mid section but this time he looked hard here.
This time his entire body was conditioned and hard and here I would like to say about Bilal Ali that in Bilal Ali’s Arnold classic version, he was showing that extreme level of fullness.
That extreme level of width from his front side and in Olympia it seemed that that fullness was missing somewhere in him, here Bilal Ali’s effort was visible that he should appear completely conditioned here.
Which he did appear but he never sacrificed the fullness, so friends this would have been some scene of Mr Olympia 2025 pre judging of men’s physique division.
CONCLUSION OF ALL THE OLYMPIA 2025 MEN’S PHYSIQUE PRE JUDGING UPDATES
So friends, this was a complete review of the Pre-Judging Round of Mr. Olympia 2025 Men’s Physique Division – where every athlete showcased his best version on stage.
This year has clearly become a statement year for men’s physique, where every bodybuilder has set a new standard through his conditioning, posing and presence.
Ryan Terry has impressed everyone once again with his champion mindset – his conditioning and detailing were literally next level this time.
It seems that he is ready both mentally and physically to defend his title. Bilal Ali, on the other hand, also brought the best possible version of himself to the stage, but sacrificed a bit of perfection to focus on conditioning—his hard work and passion are clearly visible.
Brandon Hendrickson maintained his signature polished physique and proved to be the perfect example of consistency, while Erin Banks and Andrei Deiu shocked the crowd with his presence.
Now everyone’s focus is on the finals – where it will be decided whether Ryan Terry will be able to defend his crown again, or whether a new face, like Bilal Ali or Brandon Hendrickson, will dethrone him and start a new era.
