Video: The most flamboyant Russian bodybuilding routine you’ll ever see

For such a masculine man, this is a pretty feminine routine it must be said.

For such a masculine man, this is a pretty feminine routine it must be said.

And there’s nothing wrong with that, of course, only it’s not exactly what you’d expect in a bodybuilding contest from this macho-looking Russian contestant, who certainly doesn’t lack anything in enthusiasm and imagination that’s for sure.

Although the competition appears to have taken place months ago, the video itself has only gone viral in recent days and we’re hugely surprised that footage of something this bizarre/brilliant/funny/disturbing has been kept under wraps for so long.

If the routine in itself wasn’t enough, we’re sure the cheeky wink at the end had the desired effect on the judges because if this man didn’t win, well, we’ve lost our faith in Russian bodybuilding that’s for sure.
