Seven days out from the Olympia stage, Ryan J. Terry opens up in his latest vlog — “I’LL SAY WHEN I’M DONE!” — giving fans an honest, raw look into his mindset, training intensity, and emotional journey as peak week begins in Las Vegas.
Inside the legendary Powerhouse Gym, Ryan hammers through a brutal arm day, pushing through the Nevada heat while fine-tuning every last detail of his physique. He highlights one of his favorite machines — an overhead plate-loaded press rarely found in the UK — praising its lock-in feel and shoulder engagement when used with control. With just days left, he’s sitting 1.3 pounds over stage weight — right where he wants to be.
Between sets, Ryan shares the supplements he’s relied on for over a decade: Impact EAA, creatine, and a zero-calorie hydration mix that keeps him fueled and focused. His post-workout shake — MyProtein’s Blueberry Muffin whey blend — adds the perfect finishing touch to a grueling session.
But this vlog isn’t just about training. Ryan opens up about the mental battles of prep — the toll of social media chatter, the pressure of defending his title, and how criticism from competitors initially pushed him into overtraining and undereating. Admitting he made “rookie mistakes,” he explains how he reset his mindset, regained control, and came back stronger — both physically and mentally.
He credits his comeback to the support of his team and family, emphasizing how vital positivity and balance are during prep. Despite 22 years in bodybuilding and 15 years competing, Terry makes one thing clear — he’s not done yet. With a fiery determination in his voice, he promises:
