Moreover, Ramiz Ibrahim Khan not only won the gold medal but also earned a **Pro Card**, after which he was awarded the title of professional athlete. This is a big honor for any Pakistani because after getting a Pro Card, athletes become eligible to participate in professional competitions at the international level.
The growing trend of bodybuilding in Pakistan
These achievements of Pakistani bodybuilders have given a new dimension to the sport of fitness and bodybuilding in the country. Gym cultures are growing rapidly in cities and young people are making physical fitness an integral part of their lives.

Challenges and issues
Despite this, Pakistani bodybuilders face many challenges. Issues like lack of proper sponsorship, unavailability of modern training facilities and limited access to nutritional supplements remain obstacles for the athletes. If bodybuilders are encouraged at the government level, Pakistan can win more big awards in the near future.
