Columbus, Ohio hosted the 2022 Arnold Classic, and the Fitness International division results concluded Friday. Ariel Khadr won the Arnold Classic Fitness International title after battling a group of talented bodybuilders.
The Fitness International competition wrapped up on Friday. Prejudging for the event happened from 12:00 p.m. -2:00 p.m. and the finals for the event occurred from 7:00 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. The show was exciting and saw the return of many top finishers from last year’s Arnold Classic event.
One of the biggest stars of the show, 2020 Olympia champion Missy Truscott was back on the prowl hunting for a third straight Arnold Classic Fitness International title. Accustomed to victory, Truscott came into the show Friday in excellent condition after placing second at Mr. Olympia last year. Truscott has a knack for showing her physique on stage and understands how important it is to nail each pose when standing next to another bodybuilder.
Ariel Khadr returned with something to prove this year at the 2022 Arnold Classic. Khadr had an active and promising 2020 season in bodybuilding. The Fitness International competitor came in second at the 2020 Arnold Classic and then won the Tampa Pro. Following those two shows, she placed fourth at Olympia. Given the talent in this lineup, it made Ariel Khadr victory even more impressive. In 2021, Ariel managed to earn third place. Her hard work in prep has paid off.
This was Ariel Khadr’s first Arnold Classic Fitness division title. Her routine was a tribute to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s The Terminator films as she had a Terminator-themed outfit on and danced to the soundtrack from the movie. Miss Truscott placed second, and Jaclyn Baker placed third.
