A PROFESSIONAL bodybuilder has revealed how she achieved her muscular physique while juggling her career, family life, and battling health issues.
Anahi F Rosales (@iamacoolmomduh) looks almost unrecognizable after transforming her body to earn a highly coveted IFBB pro card in the figure division.
She boasts over 598,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares her grueling gym workouts as well as funny moments with her husband and son.
She took to the social media platform showing how her physique looked before she became a bodybuilder and what it took to achieve her enviable structure.
“It’s on YOU to get YOU where YOU want to be,” read the text over the video.
Anahi had a visibly fuller frame before overhauling her lifestyle and no visible abs.
She now has capped shoulders and definition in her legs.
The mom gave a glimpse into how she sculpted her body with a gym work out that included back extensions, angled leg presses, and three variations of squats.
She donned a black cropped T-shirt and shorts for the intensive leg workout.
The text continued: “I’m a 40-year-old IFBB Pro (professional bodybuilder).
