Mr. America is trying to bring that iconic competition back, and I think that’s the direction that bodybuilding should go." Platz added, "I could not say that better. I think the values [of past bodybuilding eras] will come back, especially among the younger community, and it’s not just about biceps and triceps." Conclusion Tom Platz has been exceptionally vocal about his views on modern-day bodybuilding, and rightly so.

After all, when a legend speaks, you listen. Tom Platz wasn't the only one to voice his concerns about the sport, and was even joined by the legendary Jay Cutler who expressed his disappointment at the infrastructural changes made by the Arnold Classic in their decision to remove the Women's division and the 212 division altogether. View this post on Instagram Instagram Post Upon hearing legends like Tom Platz express their dissatisfaction, we can do nothing but empathize and agree with the validity of their thoughts.
