Athletes to Watch
Three contenders that will likely be in the final callout are below.
Julia Chitarra
Julia Chitarra placed fourth at the 2024 Arizona Pro on Aug. 24, 2024, her only appearance of the 2024 season. She was a 2022 Wellness Olympia competitor, placing 12th, and was fifth in 2021. She would be searching for her third overall Olympia qualification.
Lexy Oliver
Lexy Oliver last competed at the 2024 Balkan Grand Prix Pro on Oct. 5, 2024, and placed seventh. Her best placing this season was third at the 2024 Europa Pro in London, England, on Sept. 15, 2024. Oliver seeks her first pro win and Olympia qualification.
Andreia Gadelha
The 2024 Musclecontest Pro runner-up is looking to return to the Olympia stage. Andreia Gadelha was also a 2022 Olympia competitor but failed to break through to the top 15.
Gadelha beat 2023 Wellness International champion Kassandra Gillis in the 2024 Musclecontest Pro event, which should be a big confidence booster. Gadelha has an excellent opportunity to impress the judges and leave the stage as champion in a smaller lineup like this.
