"It is not the critic who counts. Not the man who points out how the strong
man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit
belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by
dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short
again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause. Who, at the best, knows in the end
the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, at least fails while
daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who
know neither victory nor defeat."

- Theodore Roosevelt

"Everybody wanna be a bodybuilder, don't nobody wanna lift this heavy ass weight! I'll do it though"
- Ronnie Coleman


Ronald Coleman (born May 13, 1964 in Louisiana) is a retired American professional bodybuilder who shares the record of eight straight wins in Mr. Olympia. He is known mainly as "Ronnie Coleman", and he won the Mr. Olympia contest from 1998 to 2005. Coleman is an affiliate of the International Federation of Bodybuilders and is signed to an endorsement contract with BSN.
Alongside his eight Mr. Olympia wins as a professional bodybuilder, Ronnie Coleman holds the record for most wins as an IFBB professional with 26 wins. He broke the previous record in Moscow on November 5, 2004. He was the recipient of the 2001 Admiral in the Texas Navy Certificate Award from Texas Governor Rick Perry for outstanding achievements in bodybuilding and for the promotion of physical fitness.
Ronnie Coleman entered the 2006 Mr. Olympia on September 30, 2006 with the purpose of breaking the record of eight consecutive Mr. Olympia titles, which he shares with Lee Haney, but finished second to Jay Cutler. He placed 4th in 2007 and announced his retirement from further Mr. Olympia competitions. Ronnie Coleman was married for the first time at the age of 43 to Rouaida Christine Achkar in December 2007. Ronnie also has two daughters, Jamilleah and Valencia Daniel.
Bodybuilding philosophy: Ronnie Coleman's training consists of simple compound movements with mostly heavy free weights and some powerlifting; he also uses machines. He typically trains 6 days a week in the on-season.

Exceptional Athlete. Exceptional Mind.
