2020 IFBB Fitness International
(Columbus, Ohio - March 6, 2020)
Arguably on a par with the Ms. Olympia, this invitational only IFBB Pro Event featured the very best in the Fitness Division. As
part of the Arnold Sports Festival, it attracts visitors from all over the world. In a last minute move to err on the side of
caution regarding health threats and public safety (ie. coronavirus), it was decided to limit the general public audience to just the Finals.
The trade show/expo had been cancelled as well. So that's how this reporter's first Arnold Classic experience played out. Back to the
competition, it did NOT disappoint! Having known Missy Truscott since she turned Pro in 2012, it's been a steady rise to the top. Both
in terms of her physique and routine, she's simpiy dominating the sport...can the Olympia be next?

A number of top names in the sport were here, Ariel Khadr and Tiffany Chandler placing 2nd and 3rd respectively. Also great to see Sara Kovach,
she won the 2019 IFBB Vancouver Pro Show.
Some incredible routines of course, more on those down the road. For now, some comparisons from
prejudging.
In an effort to support the sponsors and exhibitors of the 2020 Arnold Sports Festival and canceled Arnold Fitness EXPO, the Arnold Virtual EXPO was created so you can still connect and have access to all the amazing products, services and offers you would have seen at the Arnold Sports Festival!
