Today I am honoured to be speaking with one of the most successful IFBB bikini champions,  Angelica Teixeira!

Angelica has more titles than almost any other IFBB Bikini Pro, she is one of only two bikini athletes to win the Mr Olympia title more than once. She has won the Olympia twice, has 4 Arnold Champion titles, ha won the Asia Grand Prix, the New York Pro and Pittsburgh Pro - I mean she has won everything! 

We speak about her journey from an amateur to the pro level and the wins and challenges along the way - she also answers the question about her comeback plans ….. 

We cover so much in this episode!

  • How she overcame so much adversity to win her pro card 
  • What her ‘secret’ was to get in shape for her first shows 
  • How she approaches longevity in the sport and her offseason and in-season approach. 
  • Angelica’s mindset when she placed 31st (2nd to last) in her first Olympia 
  • Her tough decisions between competing and starting a family. 
  • How she views her role as an ambassador and role model in the sport 
  • Her advice and words of wisdom to both high-level pros and also amateur and aspiring bikini competitors 
  • Her transition into motherhood 
  • Finally an exclusive insight into her comeback plans …… 

Angelica is such an incredible role model and ambassador for the sport of bikini, it was such an honor to speak with someone who is one of the greatest Champions in the sport but is so welcoming, lovely and down to earth.
