Early life
Kai Greene was born in New York City's Brooklyn borough of July 12, 1975. He was raised in foster care and residential treatment centers in Brooklyn beginning at the age of six. According to his online biography, his rapid physical growth and development attracted his seventh grade English teacher's interest, and since his schooling was difficult, he was encouraged to enter teenage bodybuilding competitions as a way of vent.
Bodybuilding career
Greene began to exercise with personal trainer Jakob Panotas in 1996 and became an enthusiastic bodybuilder when he worked at Johnny Lats Gym in New York City, where he began training with personal trainer Jakob Panotas. He competed in the National Physique Committee (NPC), aiming for promotion of the IFBB. He sees his NPC as mixed. Despite winning the 1999 NPC Team Universe, he took a five-year break from sports before re-emerging in the 2004 NPC Team Universe competition, which he won again. When he began his professional career as a bodybuilder, this victory piqued his interest in an IFBB career.
Greene began working with preparation coach George Farah in 2011 and finished 1st in the 2011 New York Pro Championship. Mr. Olympia's 3rd place finish in 2011 qualified him for the 2012 competition, but he did not register in order to concentrate on Mr. Olympia. Mr. Olympia's 2012 Mr. Olympia, the 2013 Mr. Olympia, and the 2014 Mr. Olympia placed second, 2nd.
Greene did not participate in the 2015 Mr. Olympia because of unknown causes, but he released a statement claiming that "there's a lot more going on underneath the scenes that [he] can't discuss." Officials at Olympia denied any allegations that he was barred from participating, but did insist he did not register and had been asked to register several times since May of this year. Greene did request a postponement of the registration period and was granted an additional two months, but he didn't meet the deadline.
Greene won the 2016 Arnold Classic, which he had won in 2009 and 2010, but he hasn't competed since. He was granted a special invitation to participate in the Mr. Olympia competition this year without having to re-qualify, which he declined.
Greene worked with director Mike Pulcinella to produce Overkill in 2009, which chronicled his preparations for his first appearance at the 2009 Olympia. He returned to Pulcinella in 2010 to film the sequel Redemption, showcasing his preparations and philosophical principles for the 2010 Arnold Classic, which he won for the second year in a row. He appears in Generation Iron, a 2013 film that chronicles the build-up to and events of the 2012 Mr. Olympia competition. He was also included in Generation Iron 2 and Generation Iron 3.
Greene has often discussed the "mind-muscle connection." "The mind-muscle connection is the number one factor in preparation," Flex said in an article that appeared as part of his "Top Ten Big Back Principles." You'll develop it over time by posing your muscles and then paying close attention to how your muscles feel when you work them. Eventually, your mind will get to the point where your muscles are giving feedback, and your muscles will respond to the stimulus your brain provides. Pose posing between sets or anytime. And finally, you'll feel your muscles at work. "Eventually, your mind and muscles will talk in the same words and talk back and forth."
Flex sponsored Greene. In 2015, he began building Dynamik Muscle, a supplement brand, and The 5P, a training program. The latter is named after the acronym for his slogan, "Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Results." He is sponsored by sportswear firm Ryderwear, who have introduced lines of signature clothing and footwear in his name, and he has signed a 2020 contract with sports supplement and clothing firm REDCON1.
