IFBB Pro Mitchell Spadafore opens up about his life as a bodybuilder.

A young man in his early 20’s, Mitchell has already tasted success as a pro level men’s physique bodybuilder. And up until this point, he’s done it naturally.

Mitchell joins the SBD show with host Chris Wilson to talk about his childhood, his passion for bodybuilding, the mentality and discipline you need for this sport and what exactly those months leading up to being stage ready look like.

 

"You're not supposed to look excellent all the time. It's really crazy how much the body can transform simply from a pump!" -Mitchell Spadafore
