Calum Von Moger Wins First NPC show
Calum Von Moger, a social media icon and celebrity in the fitness industry has been on everyone's radar for a while because of his exceptional physique and extroverted personality. He already gained fame and notoriety by winning the Mr. Universe title three times, but this past weekend in Culver City, CA, he won yet another presitigious show, the IronGames Pro. This was a significant win because it was his first in the NPC.
If you've been following his prep, then you knew he was going to win without a shadow of a doubt. He's been in possession of an IFBB-caliber physique for years; we were all just waiting for him to enter a show. This weekend, he entered the IronGames Pro in the Classic Physique vision, which seems tailor-made for someone with his proportions.
At this point, he just needs to find a way to get an IFBB pro card. Because he's not American, he won't be able to compete at the NPC Nationals or USAs, and thus will have to do an Arnold show to win his pro card.
He's going to benefit from the new IFBB guidelines for the CPD, i.e. the 5lbs per height class weight increase, since he's on the taller side. Calum has always had an incredibly marketable look, and if you know his work ethic, he'll find a way to make the IFBB Pro card happen for himself. We wish him nothing but the best of luck, and utmost success.
