Hey everyone, it’s April

This May, I’ll be stepping back on stage to compete in Women’s Physique as an IFBB Pro—a journey I’ve poured my entire heart, discipline, and soul into. Prep isn’t just a season for me, it’s a lifestyle I breathe every day. Early mornings, late nights, meals weighed to the gram, training when I’m dead tired because that stage means everything to me.

Bodybuilding gave me purpose, structure, and a fire that never dies out. It taught me resilience, self-respect, and what it means to chase something even when it isn’t easy especially when it isn’t easy. And this next year, I’m pushing harder than ever to bring the best version of me to that 2026 stage.

As many of you know, competing at the pro level is beautiful… and expensive as hell. Between coaching, supplements, food, lab work, tanning, suit, travel, hotel, registration fees, hair/makeup—the list is long, and this prep adds up fast. My goal is to raise $6,000 to help cover show expenses so I can focus on what I do best—show up, work, grind, and deliver.

I’ve seen first-hand how powerful community can be. Every message, every share, every person who’s believed in me—even when I was running on fumes—fuels me more than you know. If you’d like to support my journey, anything helps. $5, $10, $50—whatever you feel comfortable with. Even sharing this link means the world to me.

This isn’t just about stepping on stage.

It’s about showing what’s possible with discipline, heart, and a refusal to quit.

And when I’m under those lights in May, just know—I’m carrying all of you with me.

Thank you for riding with me, believing in me, and being part of this chapter.

Let’s go make something crazy happen this year.

With love & grit,

April Cosimano
