Welsh bodybuilder James 'Flex' Lewis: 'Winning Mr Olympia for the sixth time is surreal'

A Welsh bodybuilder who has just won his sixth consecutive Mr Olympia title has told ITV News his victory feels "surreal".


James 'Flex' Lewis, 33, muscled his way to the title in Las Vegas over the weekend - rivalling The Terminator himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger.


Flex, from Llanelli, only took up weightlifting as a teenager to help him bulk up for rugby.


But his hobby soon turned into a passion that saw him entering competitions and emulating his film star hero, Arnie.


Flex now lives in California and runs his own business, as well as being an Instagram star.


But he told ITV News he credits his Welsh roots with giving him a strong work ethic.

I've still got this Welsh accent... never lost my roots. The blue collar, mining, steel town background has taught me to grind.


If you want to go for something in life, go for it. Don't let anybody talk you out of your goals and dreams.


I came to America and knew one person. And now I'm sitting at the top of the tree, but have never forgotten my roots.


– JAMES 'FLEX' LEWIS
Mr Olympia is the sport's biggest competition - and Flex is one of the biggest names in the game.


Speaking to ITV Cymru Wales presenter Andrea Byrne about his victory, he said: "It's surreal... it's been a whirlwind.


"To equal [Arnie's] record is madness. And I didn't even know it was going to happen."

I am considering a run at 212 and was blown away by the height of all the top 5 guys. Those guys are really the reason I decided to pack on the mass. My 5'11 frame carries 212lbs alot different than these short guys. I will say though..and im not going to ruin the guys name with a crappy attempt at spelling his name but the dude from camel crew who couldn't compete because of visa problems is a real contender to Flex. We will see what the future holds. I would like to see some of these physique dudes make the jump to classic or 212 as well.
