MEET DENETRA
Hello there friend!
My name is Denetra aka Denetrabfit.
I am an International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness (IFBB) Bikini Pro,
A certified nutrition consultant,
A published fitness model,
Your future accountability buddy, therapist, fitness coach, and new best friend.
Most people just need a workout guide, nutritious meal plan, supplement advice and accountability.
That is where I come in! The one thing I need from you is to just get moving (whether that be the gym or even at home in your underwear) and I’ll be on the other side guiding you through it all.
I have experience working with different fitness levels, ages, genders, body types, and dietary restrictions (ie: Vegan or Vegetarian). I am a female bodybuilder - If I can build all this muscle on a woman naturally, you know I can do wonders for a man. No matter what barriers you faced in the path, I want to help you build a better relationship with fitness ALONG WITH food, your mental health, and others around you.
I am ready to help you achieve your goals. We ain’t getting any younger and time is ticking.
Well… What are you waiting for? Join my supportive fitness community today.
My clients will tell you that I am not like all the other “Online Fitness Trainers”. Once you invite me into your life, there’s no going back. You’ll be seeing results for the better. Not blowing any smoke, it's just facts! Need proof? I got you.
Where I Started
I wasn’t always an IFBB Pro. At first I was a professional hip hop dancer signed with Movement Talent Agency, one of the largest diverse talent agencies across the United States. Throughout my time with MTA, I had amazing opportunities to perform with talented artists such as: Calvin Harris, Daft Punk, YG, Pharrell, and more. Auditions were heavily centered on physical appearances, so I spent a ton of time working out to secure more gigs. Before you knew it, I fell in love with the gym and what it was doing to me not only physically, but mentally. Focusing on health and fitness opened up a whole new world to me.
So like any other fitness enthusiast, I went and got my Physical Therapist Certification from National Association of Sports Medicine (NASM), a NCCA accredited organization. I became a certified personal trainer to help others visualize and reach their personal fitness goals.
How I Became an IFBB Pro in Under 9 Months
After a couple of years of training clients and working out daily. I decided to take my fitness career to the next level. In November of 2016 I competed at my first ever amateur body building competition "Jon Lindsey's Musclecontest". It was a very intense, dramatic, thrilling, and fulfilling experience. Despite being new to the trade, I secured 1st place! Bringing home that 1st place trophy after only a 4 week prep sparked a fire in me that hasn’t gone out.
Less than two full months later (January 2017), I was a contestant at the LA Fit Expo Amateur Bodybuilding competition. Not only did I win 1st place, but I also was crowned the Overall Winner for the Bikini Division. I could not believe it. Here at one of the biggest conventions in Southern California, I took home all the trophies. I did it again 2 months later in San Diego at Musclecontest in March. From there my coach and I decided....it was time to go for the pro card!
So after many meal preps, countless hours of cardio, and weightlifting I flew to Chicago to compete at the NPC Jr. Nationals to become an IFBB Bikini Pro. Amongst hundreds of amateur bodybuilders, I ended up competing against 50 other women in my class alone! This competition featured the best of the best and then some. After months of prep and hard work, everything paid off when I was awarded 1 of the 7 Pro cards given out that night for my division!!! At only 8 months of competing, I won 1st place at all four competitions I participated in, earned my Pro Card, and became one of the fastest amateur bodybuilders to turn pro.
Whats Happening Now
Ever since that initial spark, leading a fit lifestyle has become natural to me. Properly maintaining my health has made me a better trainer, daughter, sister, co worker, athlete, and friend. I don't want my overflowing ambition and motivation to go to waste.
I want to help others feel the same empowerment I do. Everyday I wake up feeling extremely blessed for my great health. Because of it, my relationship with myself, food, and others improves daily. I continue this lifestyle not only for myself, but to create a persona that any little girl can look up to and know they can do it too. They could achieve anything just one day at a time with the same practices I lead with in my program. We all need a guide, nutritious meals, good advice, and accountability. Every drop of sweat is worth it to become the best version of yourself.
