Nick Walker has been hitting the gym hard during the offseason.
It was quite a rookie season for Nick Walker. He put together some big performances in the biggest shows of the year but admitted that he was unhappy with his finish at the Olympia. It is clear that Walker is continuing to train with a purpose and a recent physique update shows just that.
It is unlikely that Walker competes again until the 2022 Olympia. This gives him just over a year to get himself in prime shape in hopes of winning the biggest competition of the year. Walker has not been shy about sharing progress and workouts on social media. Recently, Walker released both.
Nick Walker took to Instagram to share a recent physique update following a chest and biceps workout. On his YouTube channel, Walker also shared a huge leg workout. There will be a new back routine released this week.
Walker burst onto the scene with one of the best physiques in the world this year. He took began by winning the New York Pro and followed it up with a title in his first Arnold Classic. He entered the Olympia with plenty of momentum and finished fifth. This was a strong finish for his first appearance but Walker was not satisfied.
“5th place to many is a huge accomplishment. 5th place to me is a loss…. a loss that I will make sure with this whole year of training never happens again. I know what needs to be improved and I know what needs to be fixed,” Walker wrote in an Instagram caption back on Oct. 11.
Early in the offseason, it seems as though Walker is beginning to makes those changes. He has been sharing workout videos for quite sometime now. Recently, it was a massive hamstring workout that he shared on his YouTube page.
This was a workout that consisted of five exercises. Walker began with seated leg curls and trap bar deadlifts. He then went to lying leg curls and hip thrusters before finishing up with weighted lunges. Up next will be a back workout. Walker said that the video would be released this week.
Nick Walker might not compete this year but that does not mean that he will not be a competitor to watch during the 2022 Olympia in Las Vegas. Walker has already sculpted one of the best physiques in the world and is continuing to improve, which is a scary thought.
Over the course of the offseason, Walker will likely continue to provide physique updates and different workouts. He has stated that he knows what changes need to be made and it will be interesting to see what is focused on most to improve.
