The 2020 Olympia had several memorable moments. One of the biggest moments actually came from the 212 division. “The Giant Killer” Shaun Clarida climbed the mountain and left Orlando, Florida with Bob Cicherillo announcing him as the “new” Olympia champion.
Clarida’s life changed from that very moment, and he hasn’t looked back since. He was the guest on this week’s episode of “The Menace Podcast”, and he was telling host Dennis James about what is different for the New Jersey native now that he is the number one 212 bodybuilder in the world.
