Ty Michael Ogedegbe, also known as Ty OG, has always been inspired by the larger-than-life figures of professional wrestlers and action film stars from his childhood – and his dedication to achieving a physique similar to his idols paid off handsomely when he first stepped onto the bodybuilding stage.

He started bodybuilding at the same gym as Arnold Schwarzenegger, in east London, in which led to his foray in bodybuilding being not only successful but also exceptional. Within a short span of two years - he came to a major triumph in 2013 as a Mr Universe world champion! Musclemania.

He also evolved victorious as the overall champion in the 2012 Musclemania Mr. European & Commonwealth competition right at his first attempt. His reputation in the bodybuilding circuit grew immensely!

His triumphs didn't stop at the competitions - they also catapulted him to social media fame, leading to him to becoming a sponsored athlete and working with big names and brands not only in fitness but various other industries. Ty's journey demonstrates the power of dedication, persistence, and the relentless pursuit of one's dreams. His faith in God importantly embodies his ability to succeed at the level at which he has.

Ty is also a graduate from the University of Hull UK where he majored in Business Management and IT attaining his bachelors degree.
