Today I speak with IFBB Bikini Pro Brittany Shulman, a wife, mother, and former gymnast who works in finance. She started lifting after leaving gymnastics and two friends introduced her to bodybuilding. She competed in her first show in 2017 and then took a couple years off to get married and have a baby. She tried to return to the stage in 202, but got derailed by COVID. She then found Paul Revelia and first year competing with him in 2022 and earned her pro card at Ben Weider Naturals. She returned in 2023 and won, qualifying her to the 2024 Olympia.

She will soon be launching her coaching business soon, mostly focusing on transformation/lifestyle clients!
