Heading into the 2022 Mr. Olympia, Mamdouh “Big Ramy” Elssbiay<\/a> was considered the presumed heavy favorite. The former two-time defending champion (2020-2021) had ringing endorsements<\/a> from Olympia icons like Ronnie Coleman<\/a> and Lee Haney<\/a>. With various training updates showcasing his trademark mass<\/a>, it seemed inevitable that the Egyptian bodybuilding titan would become only the eighth person to win the Mr. Olympia on at least three occasions. Instead, in a surprising upset that made Olympia history, Hadi Choopan captured his first career Olympia title<\/a>, while Elssbiay notched a disappointing fifth-place result. <\/p>\n

With the 2022 competitive calendar now in the rearview mirror, Elssbiay posted a reflection on his most recent Olympia performance<\/strong> in a Dec. 18, 2022, Instagram video. In the process, he looked ahead to the future and what might be next as someone who remains one of bodybuilding’s biggest names. <\/p>\n
