Arnold Classic 2025 Classic Physique Results
1. Mike Sommerfeld - Champion
Mike Sommerfeld claimed his first-ever Arnold Classic title, and he did it in style! Coming into the show as one of the favorites, Mike delivered an exceptional package characterized by insane conditioning, deep muscle separation, and dominant back shots. His fluid posing and undeniable stage presence left no doubt in the judges' minds that he was the best on the night. With this win, Mike has positioned himself as a top contender for the 2025 Classic Physique Olympia.
2. Logan Franklin - Runner-Up
Logan Franklin shocked everyone by securing the runner-up spot. Many expected him to make the top five, but few anticipated he would challenge for the title. Logan's symmetry, structure, and flawless flow between poses were evident throughout his performance. He brought one of his best packages ever, and the judges rewarded him for it.

3. Matthew Grego - Rising Star
Matthew Grego continues to impress as he cracks the top three. With improvements year by year, Matthew showcased fantastic proportions and structure that stood out against some of the best in the world. While he wasn’t quite at the level of the top two, this placing solidifies his status as one of the rising stars in Classic Physique.
4. Michael Daboul - Consistent Performer
Michael Daboul, who also took fourth place last year, showcased his classic lines and signature posing once again. His conditioning was on point, and his vacuum poses were some of the best in the show. However, the top three brought a combination of muscle density, structure, and peak conditioning that edged him out of a podium finish.
5. Wesley Vissers - Unexpected Finish
Wesley Vissers, known for his golden aesthetic, landed in fifth place this year. Unfortunately, his conditioning wasn't as sharp as in previous performances, leading to a softer appearance. Despite his impressive V-taper and wide shoulders, he struggled against competitors with better detail and definition. Wesley will need to make adjustments for the Olympia to aim for a higher placing, focusing on back and lower body development.
