Q&A WITH Chelsea
What got you into fitness?
After gaining a large amount of weight after high school, I decided I needed a change. I used to read Oxygen magazine and in the back they had a competitors corner, and seeing women who compete totally inspired me. Once I started training, I fell in love with getting stronger.
What’s your source of inspiration?
Looking back and seeing how far I’ve come even through all the set backs. It inspires me to go farther. Work harder.
What’s your go-to cheat meal?
A bacon cheese burger and fries NEVER disappoints. And I have to have something sweet, cookies, brownies, anything.
What’s your favorite TV show?
Peaky Blinders (currently)
What’s your biggest achievement?
My biggest achievement has been placing 9th at the Mr. Olympia in my first year of being a pro bodybuilder. I just won my 2nd title, earning me my 2nd Olympia qualification.
What keeps you going?
Bodybuilding is everything to me. It is not just a lifestyle for me. It is what I do every single day. It keeps me regimented and focused on goals. Bodybuilding keeps me going.
