Anton Ratushnyi, the 19-year-old bodybuilder has undergone an astonishing two-year transformation, breaking Arnold Schwarzenegger’s record in the process.
In 1969, at the age of 20, Schwarzenegger achieved a historic milestone by winning the Mr. Universe title, becoming the youngest person ever to earn the prestigious ‘pro card.’ But now, there’s a new champion named Anton Ratushnyi.
Anton won three titles in a row and got his pro card when he was only 19 years old. Recently, he won the NPC national division title in Texas.

I’m so glad that I decided to pursue my true passion and didn’t let negativity get to me. I took the risk to prep again and challenge myself mentally, physically, and emotionally to not just succeed in bodybuilding but grow as a person that would be worthy of inspiring this new generation.
