Confessions of a Bikini Pro

NATASHA PEAY

Today, I speak with IFBB Pro Natasha Peay, who turned pro at NPC Universe in November of 2020. Her passion for fitness has sparked her and her husband to give back to the fitness community. She grew up in Hawaii and struggled with emotional eating. Once moving to California for college, she was able to overcome her poor relationship with food once she had easy access to a gym. When she discovered boxing, she found running and really came into her own as an athlete. She believes finding a form of exercise you truly enjoy is the key to long-term success.

 

Because there is so much information out there, it can be hard for someone to know where to begin their fitness journey. That’s why Natasha and her husband have started a lifestyle coaching business to help people integrate fitness in their lives without going to extremes. Natasha talks about the structure that is required to compete with a young son and how he is invested in it, as well. He is her biggest fan! Even though bodybuilding can be a selfish sport, she doesn’t want him to feel like he is coming second to competing.

 

Natasha speaks to how she competed in Wellness and Bikini in the same show and decided to stick with Bikini after winning the overall. After hearing judges’ feedback that she had great proportions for Bikini, it gave her great confidence to move to the National stage. As she talks about her plans competing in as a Pro, Natasha reveals her future plans of competing with her husband and they shows they want to choose. Listen in to hear an incredible story you won’t want to miss!
