The 2025 Mr Olympia recently shared an Instagram video demonstrating that he\u2019s not afraid of hard work, or yard work, and the Internet couldn\u2019t wait to react.<\/p>\n<p>Samson Dauda is currently in training to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.muscleandfitness.com\/flexonline\/flex-news\/john-romanos-2024-mr-olympia-recap\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">defend his Mr Olympia title this October in Las Vegas<\/a>, but while still at home in England, the big man is finding plenty of ways to burn some calories. In a recent IG reel, Dauda went back to grass roots, literally, as he laid some turf. \u201cGarden patio finally completed,\u201d wrote the proud Nigerian-British bodybuilder, shown completing the job and looking jacked. Of course, this bodybuilder\u2019s more natural habitat is the twisted steel of the gym, so it\u2019s great to see that the current Mr \u2018O\u2019 can make gains in his garden as well.<\/p>\n<h2>Samson Dauda is Gardening for Gains<\/h2>\n<p>Jokes aside, gardening is actually a great way to boost fitness and longevity. <a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC6334070\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Studies show that exposure to plants and green space is beneficial<\/a> for both mental and physical health. And an activity like laying turf could<a href=\"https:\/\/exercisesforinjuries.com\/gardening-calorie-burning-checklist\"> crush 200 calories<\/a> per 30 minutes. When you factor in Dauda\u2019s extra muscle mass, that figure is significantly heightened. Gardening is also a great way to get some fresh air while squeezing in an extra workout. Moreover, you\u2019ll be working your core, and improving your flexibility too!<\/p>\n<p>But back to the jokes, the internet wasn\u2019t about to let such a surreal sight go unchecked. \u201cHey, my gardener would fit in your pocket,\u201d wrote one Instagram follower. \u201cYou\u2019re blocking the sun, bro,\u201d observed another. But let\u2019s face it, what neighbor would dare to complain about being thrust into the shade? \u201cImagine Samson is your landscaper,\u201d fantasized another fan. \u201cSee, even Mr Olympia touched grass!\u201d praised another.<\/p>\n<p>While Dauda certainly showed off his pump while prepping his patio, the \u201cNigerian Lion\u201d will have a chance to show his own physical growth when he collides with bodybuilding\u2019s great and good at the 2025 Olympia event. If his current physique is anything to go by, there\u2019s every chance that he could defend the title and receive his flowers!<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/mrolympia.com\/mr-olympia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">For more information on the 2025 Olympia, click here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/samson__dauda\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">To keep up with Samson Dauda\u2019s bodybuilding (and gardening) career, follow him on Instagram by clicking here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.muscleandfitness.com\/flexonline\/flex-news\/samson-dauda-trades-barbells-for-turf-in-viral-gardening-workout\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apparently, Samson Dauda is living the life and loving his lawn!
