Powerlifting & Bodybuilding

Three years after embarking on her fitness journey, Robin had managed to achieve a lean and strong figure – as well as completing her degree.

Robin’s training in the gym had led to her being inspired to compete as a powerlifter; she wasted no time and entered the 2015 Canadian Powerlifting Nationals shortly afterwards.

Although she didn’t have her dream start to her powerlifting career, Robin left the show with a respectable silver medal. This gave her the motivation she needed to pursue success – both as a powerlifter and bodybuilder.

Only a year later, Robin entered the 2016 OCB New York Stats Natural show – placing 2nd in her debut competition as a figure competitor.
