Joe Weider's Olympia Fitness & Performance Weekend is pretty much the Formula One of bodybuilding -- most famously known for launching the career of a certain Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The annual international professional bodybuilding competition by the International Federation of Bodybuilders (IFBB) has also been around since 1965, but only one Singaporean has ever been on the Olympia stage: Adrian Tan, two-time Mr. Singapore and national bodybuilding champion.

In late September this year, Tan flew to Nevada, US to compete in the Mr. Olympia Muscle & Fitness Physique Search for the third time.

And he made history for Singapore by placing in the top six out of 65 competitors, a leap up from last year's top-16 finish.

Tan draws strength from his "#fitfam" (fit family) on Instagram, bu the national bodybuilding star is a source of inspiration to others as well, through motivational quotes and training videos posted on the social media channel. It is, after all, his life goal to “provide direction to people keen to change and improve their overall health and well-being”.

What's stopping more Singaporeans from competing at Mr Olympia?
