KAYLA ASHWORTH; Healing Gut, Regret with Body & Food Fixation, Love Your Curves, Enjoy & Be Patient

Today I speak with IFBB Pro Kayla Ashworth, a former volleyball
athlete who stopped playing after her first year in college and
decided to pursue bodybuilding. She always loved to workout, but
wanted to take it to a competitive level and give herself a
bigger goal. She competed in her first NPC figure show in 2020
where she got 4th in her class, then competed as a bikini athlete
4 weeks later and got 1st in her class which qualified her for
nationals. She made her national debut in 2021 and hired her
coach, Brandon Guillen with Hustl Hrdr, 12 weeks out from Jr.
Nationals. She placed 3rd and then competed in USA’s 6 weeks
later where she took first in her class and received her Pro
card. She is now preparing for her Pro debut in 2023. Kayla has
her bachelor degree in Exercise & Sport Science and is an
online coach for both competitors and lifestyle clients.
