Welcome back to another episode of Curls & Courage my loves!!

In today's episode, we’re diving into the dark, hilarious, and unfiltered world of bodybuilding and bikini prep. From coaches confessing their love mid-diet, to literal artery ruptures, and even a dude posing high on coke— this is going to be one of the most unhinged and honest episodes yet!

Competing isn’t all sparkly bikinis, shredded abs, and polished Instagram reels. It’s dragging yourself through brutal workouts, eating the same bland meals every day, constant fatigue, and questioning why you chose to put yourself through this all over again!

To me, the extreme sacrifice is worth it—and you guys already know I’m a huge advocate for the sport. But, let’s keep it real. After sharing my own experiences and current prep as a competitive bikini athlete, I’m responding to some absolutely wild Reddit and online bodybuilding confessions. These had me crying, cringing, and legit laughing out loud!

I hope you love this one just as much as I loved losing my mind over these stories!
