Joe Weider’s Olympia Fitness & Performance Weekend kicked off in Orlando, FL with bodybuilders across multiple divisions trying to convince a set of judges that they deserve to compete at the highest level. Taking place from Nov. 1-2, 2023, the 2023 Amateur Olympia saw several athletes separate themselves from the pack and secure a coveted IFBB Pro League card in the process.
Accomplishing that feat automatically puts them in the mix to compete in pro shows during the 2024 bodybuilding season. And depending on how they perform over the ensuing months, newly-crowned IFBB pros like Men’s Bodybuilding Overall winner Luiz Esteves might just find themselves standing on the Olympia stage at this time next year.
Here are the full results from the 2023 Amateur Olympia:
