Episode 26: Collette Evans

Collette is a Natural Female Bodybuilder, having competed in her first season as a figure athlete in 2015. In that time she has actually transitioned up from the figure category all the way towards Womens Bodybuilding with her return back to the stage in 2021. She has won multiple titles in this category where in her last season in 2021, she took home the Heart of England Women's BB title, a top 3 at the British with UKDFBA & the British at the NPA. Colette has also been professional photographer for 21 years, now also running her own photography business where she now directs her attention with this to her passions within the fitness industry. In this episode we were able to discuss a wide range of topics relating to the experience of bodybuilding & competing as a female. It was particularly interesting to explore how this has changed for Collette over the years & how this has reflected in her prep this year. I hope you enjoy listening!
