GILLIAN HUGHES; 19 Year Road To Pro, Winning Self-Worth, Blending Families, Bikini After Babies

Confessions of a Bikini Pro

Today I speak with IFBB Bikini Pro Gillian Hughes, owner of Momshell Method Fitness who has been competing since 2005 and was one of the first athletes to compete nationally in the NPC when they introduced the bikini division in 2009. After a few short breaks to have her children and go thorough some life changes, she earned her Pro card at 2024 Master’s Nationals at the age of 43. She also has a podcast with her best friend and fellow Momshell coach Mandy called "Bikinis After Babies”.
