On May 30th, in a post shared by the popular bodybuilding page, Bis and Tris, Mostafa’s countdown to the event was highlighted. “@hassan_mostafa92 latest update at 10 days out from the highly-anticipated @toprosupershow,” the page declared.

Mostafa expressed his commitment through an Instagram post, “Today’s workout was a great one, chipping away one day at a time, won’t settle until I win!” Accompanied by poses showcasing his back muscles, including the Back double biceps and rear lat spread, Mostafa conveyed his ongoing pursuit of victory at the show.

He has already set his sights on the prestigious 2024 Mr. Olympia. The only thing stopping him is an invitation from IFBB. If he wins the Pro show, he will earn the spot to compete for the Sandow Trophy alongside formidable contenders for the highly coveted title. “We must win and qualify for the Olympia with the help of God,” Mostafa proclaimed, underscoring his high aspirations. However, despite his optimism, skepticism loomed large among the netizens. Fans questioned his ability to secure victory with his current physique.

Fans criticize Hassan Mostafa’s physique update

Netizens and followers of Mostafa have raised their eyebrows if he can bring the best physique in time. Despite the criticism, a few were hopeful for him, with one writing, “Really want to see him get it right. Looks 6 weeks out.” Meanwhile, another skeptically noted, “10 days in dog years?” and teased Mostafa’s physique update suggesting that Mostafa needed more time to prepare than just 10 days. Another compared Mostafa’s physique to John Jewitt’s. They wrote, “Gonna look like he didn’t prep next to John Jewitt,” emphasizing that Mostafa’s physique would be overshadowed by Jewitt’s on the big stage.

One commenter expressed disbelief at Mostafa’s appearance, “Are you kidding me…. Dude looks 3 months out,” reflecting that he probably needs 3 more months to be ready instead of 10 days. A bodybuilding enthusiast bluntly questioned whether Mostafa is truly ready to compete or not, “He still competes!? 10 days or 10 weeks? Not even close to be ready! Just retire already,” read the comment. Amidst criticism, a few acknowledged his efforts while advising that if he improved his midsection, he could still do well in time for the competition. They wrote, “So impressive, if he comes in with a tighter midsection he doesn’t need to be shredded.”

Can Hassan Mostafa silence his critics and emerge victorious at the Toronto PRO SuperShow, or will his physique fall short of the mark? Only time will unfold the truth. Meanwhile, let us know what you think his placing will be in the upcoming show in the comment section below.
