Ep. 32 - Aimee Delgado IFBB Pro & Bikini Olympian: Mindset, Motherhood & Meticulous Hard Work
Jul 20, 2023
Grace Mannion and Jade Hegarty

For EP 32 we had the privilege of chatting to IFBB Bikini Pro and Olympian, Aimee Delgado. 


Aimee has had incredible success since turning pro in 2020, rocketing to the top taking top 6 in her first ever @olympiallc in 2022. So far in 2023 she has taken the champion titles of the prestigious NY Pro and Pittsburgh Pro as well as the Wasatch Warrior & Klash Series. All qualifying her for the 2023 Olympia.


It’s been an upward trajectory ever since she started competing and we couldn’t wait to sit down with her and chat about what this journey meant to her and how she’s manoeuvred home life, her mindset and everything in between, whilst competing at the highest level.


In this episode Aimee covers:


- Her background, previous athletic endeavours and how that shaped her as a bikini athlete
- Mastering her mindset, self discovery and how much bodybuilding has given back;
- Her experiences being coached by @jamidebernard at @fitbodyfusion, and how that coaching relationship has shaped her as an athlete;
- Her competitive accolades and journey, turning pro, competing at the pro level and her journey to the Olympia stage;
- Her struggles and set backs, has she had times during her journey where she has questioned her success or ability?
- Life on and off season, how she manages her family life, her approach to achieving a balance that suits her;
- Training development over her years, the gruelling reality of how she built her physique;
- Feedback she has received, when and what feedback is important to her development as an athlete and how she applies that from show to show;
- What’s next, when is she prepping, future shows and her Olympia game plan;
- Advice for competitors, first timers, mums who want to compete and anybody wanting to take that top spot. 


And so much more.


This conversation was so profound. To understand the dedication, commitment and discipline Aimee embodies truly does spark a lot of admiration. This is a way of life for her and her success is a byproduct of her commitment to bringing nothing but 150% to anything she does.
