Men’s Physique Athletes to Watch

Below are three athletes prone to contend for the title:

George Brown

Brown has been competing in the professional ranks since 2013. He’s won eight pro shows. He has competed on the Olympia stage eight times — his highest finish was sixth in 2016.

Brown’s most up-to-date Olympia appearance was in 2022, when he finished outside the highest 15. After taking the 2023 season off, Brown competed within the 2024 Charlotte Pro to a fourth-place. The success and experience make him an early favorite on this contest.

Dustin Alvis

Dustin Alvis ranked fifth within the 2023 St. Louis Pro. He’s earned second place twice this season on the 2024 Charlotte Pro and 2024 Wasatch Warrior Pro. Alvis is in his second pro season and searching for his first pro win.

As Alvis gains more experience and confidence, he’ll show higher onstage. This stands out as the contest where he finally clears his last hurdle and scores the gold.

Hossein Karimi

Iran’s Hossein Karimi is in his third pro season. He already has Olympia experience, ending outside the highest 15 in 2022. He has three pro shows under his belt in 2024. His highest finish was third on the 2024 Tri-City Pro won by Clarence McSpadden.
