This Friday the largest bodybuilding meeting in Europe begins in Seville. The most muscular and strongest men in the world are already in the capital of Seville to celebrate a competition that bears the stamp of the legendary actor and bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenneger. But among the more than 20,000 visitors expected at the Palacio de Congresos this weekend will not be able to be the ‘great Arnold’. The former governor of California has also excused his absence in a video for social networks. But he promises to return.
“I am very sorry that I cannot be with all of you due to the situation caused by the Covid. But I’ll come back. I promise you, ”explains Schwarzenegger himself. You win is not lacking. The legendary Terminator or Conan the Barbarian shows his emotion for Seville to host this event “not only because it is a historic city that has been under the occupation of the Roman Empire and the Muslims” but also because “The most important thing is that in mythology, Seville was created by Hercules”.
This myth, symbolized in the city by the columns of the Alameda, makes the cinema icon proud as he reflects: «Hercules! Think about it. The strongest man in the history of the world. And how fitting that we now have the Arnold Classic right there, competing. It’s fantastic”.
