CHARISSE BRIGUERA

IFBB PRO BIKINI COMPETITOR

I started my fitness journey when I was 18 years old. I was very skinny and I wanted to feel confident about myself, since then it has become more than a hobby, but part of my healthier lifestyle. I have been working out for 6 years solid.

Aside from being an Olympic lifter, I also trained for Ninja Warrior and competed for American Ninja Warrior in 2017. I earned my IFBB PRO card on my very first bikini competition at the Arnold Classic Bikini Amateur 2019 placing 2nd in the Overall category. My ultimate goal for this year is to qualify for the Olympia stage!
