Today I speak with IFBB Bikini Pro Amanda Rivas, an actor, writer, filmmaker, comedian, and dog enthusiast. She is the writer & creator of EX Weeks Out - a film about bodybuilding and the strongest muscle of them all - the heart. Amanda competed in the NPC for nearly a decade with placings including everything from dead last to overall. Staying committed, consistent, and never giving up, she finally won her Pro car at Masters USAs in 2023.

Amanda is so open about her story and what led her to become the woman she is today. You don’t want to miss this interview!
