Confessions of a Bikini Pro


Sep 17, 2021

Today, I speak with IFBB Pro Kimberly Gier, a registered nurse, trainer, and baker! She fell in love with competing after her husband convinced her to give it a try and turned pro after 14 shows! At her first Pro show, she had to compete on a severely sprained ankle. Despite her injury she made the decision to push through and worked with her doctor to make a plan to still train and compete.


Kimberly talks about how the last 18 months have been a whirlwind for her with moving, getting married, switching coaches, having a revision of her breast augmentations, getting a new job, starting her own business, her husband having an accident, all while she was competing to turn Pro. Because she switched coaches right before getting married, she followed her intuition with food on her wedding day and her mini honeymoon. Kimberly firmly believes in appreciating big moments in life because there will always be another show but not another wedding day.


All throughout her competitive career, Kimberly has prioritized her relationship with her husband.  Even through preps, she has managed to still go on date nights and do different activities with her husband. He doesn’t compete but is very involved with fitness. Competing has helped Kimberly find self-confidence and love herself for the first time. Overtime, her reasons for competing have changed, especially after switching coaches. She credits her coach, Casey, with helloing her shift her mindset.


Kimberly shares so much about having a positive mindset and balancing life with competing. Don’t miss her interview!
