After years of the prerequisite dedication to building muscle, Elgargni captured his first 212 Olympia title in 2019 once the legendary James “Flex” Lewis vacated it after a run of seven straight victories (2012-2018). Following that title, Elgargni came in second place to Shaun Clarida during the 2020 Mr. Olympia and finished in third place to Clarida (second) and Derek Lunsford (first) in 2021.

Before showing off where his physique stands at the time of this writing, Elgargni was previously most recently seen training his legs with rising star Nick Walker.
