In today’s episode of Bikinis After Babies, we delve into the inspiring journey of Alexa Cardon, a fitness instructor and newly crowned IFBB Bikini Pro. Alexa shares her story of transformation, beginning with her background in ballet and leading to her recent achievements in the competitive bodybuilding world. Competing since 2017, Alexa shares her journey of overcoming body image, struggles with her relationship with food and building her body after babies- resulting in her pro card win in July of this year at NPC USA’s!
As a wife and mother of two, Alexa is incredibly passionate about everyday fitness for moms and reminds others that you don’t have to step on a bodybuilding stage to love yourself, take care of your body, and become the strongest version of yourself. Today we’ll be talking about her journey with food and body image, the realities of prioritizing competition while raising young children, learning to embrace flexibility in a sport that often demands perfection, and what it feels like to finally achieve a goal you weren’t sure was possible.
Alexa shares how dance, motherhood, and years of competing shaped her approach to prep, food, and self-worth, and why flexibility and a bigger life outside bodybuilding made this season her strongest yet.
