Toney Freeman

Competitors |

Toneys nickname is the X Man because his body characterizes the X-frame of classical bodybuilding: broad shoulders, narrow waist, and flaring thighs. Toney featured on the cover and pages of FLEX Magazine, Muscular Development, and Musclemag.

Toney did not become a competitive bodybuilder professional until his late 30s because for many years it was a hobby and the sport was dominated by his idols Lee Haney, Dorian Yates. It took Toney many years to fill out his large frame and he was mentored by Dave Palumbo to become a professional.

Toneys first competition was in 1993, where he won the heavyweight class of the NPC Junior Nationals. Toneys first IFBB event was the Night of Champions competition, where he placed 11th. Toneys first Arnold Classic was in 2005, where he placed 10th. Toneys first Ironman Pro Invitational was in 2006, where he placed 7th. Toneys first Mr. Olympia appearance was in 2006, where he placed 7th. In 2007, Toney won the Ironman Pro, Sacramento Pro and placed 3rd at the Arnold Classic. He made the top 5 at the 2008 Mr.Olympia.Toney Freeman – Competitive Stats
