Today I speak with IFBB Pro Abigail (Abi) Medina, a 19-year-old from Laredo, Texas. A soon-to-be college graduate, she will be earning her bachelor’s in science with a concentration in Physical/ Occupational Therapy. She competed in her first show at the Republic of Texas in July 2024 and placed 2nd in true novice, 2nd in Novice, and 2nd in Open. After only one more NPC show, where she won the overall, she competed at NPC Nationals 2024 where she earned my pro card!
