We Catch Up With Ryan To Get The Inside Scoop On What It Takes To Win.
EVER SINCE WE FIRST FEATURED RYAN TERRY BACK IN 2013, HIS EYES HAVE BEEN FIRMLY ON THE ULTIMATE PRIZE – THE MR OLYMPIA MEN’S PHYSIQUE PRO TITLE. In March this year he took one giant leap forward toward achieving that goal by securing a win at the 2017 Arnold Classic, held in Columbus, Ohio, arguably the biggest show after the ‘O’. We caught up with Ryan after his win to get the inside scoop on what it takes to win a Pro title, and how he plans to replicate that success in Las Vegas come September.
You’ve spent a lot of time on both sides of ‘the pond’ helping your sponsor USN expand into the US market. What’s life like in the world’s biggest, most competitive supplement market?
Life in America is very tough as the market is extremely competitive, but, as they say, America is the land of opportunity, and the sports industry there is growing bigger by the day. USN is already a strong, internationally renowned brand known for its quality, innovative products, which has helped us a lot with the launch. I do believe America is the hub of fitness and if you want to succeed in the industry then it’s where you need to be. That’s why I’ve been working over there more frequently.
Give us a bit of insight into your sponsor-athlete relationship, as your involvement with USN seems to go way beyond that of a simple sponsored athlete.
