Although, most bodybuilding leagues don\u2019t support performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs). At that same notion, many don\u2019t test for them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Natural bodybuilding leagues such as International Natural Bodybuilding Association (INBA)\/PNBA test their athletes via World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) \u2013 the utmost professional drug testing.\u00a0<\/span>Although some natural bodybuilders such as <\/span>Colin Congo<\/b><\/a> address their concern for the accuracy of the tests, having things like the Hall of Shame in place further prevents athletes from doping.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Of course, if INBA\/PNBA bodybuilders fail a drug test, they end up on the Hall of Shame and have all their titles confiscated and are never allowed to compete in the sport again. And let\u2019s face it, no one wants that public ridicule.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Alondra Chatman is a legend in female natural bodybuilding, but she\u2019s also a successful personal trainer. She\u2019s the owner of <\/span>The Inner Athlete<\/span><\/a> \u2013 a personal training and fitness studio located at the East Bay. They serve people in-person and online. As the name suggests, Chatman and the team of trainers at The Inner Athlete work together to help people \u2013 ordinary people and competitors prepping for shows \u2013 build an athlete\u2019s body. In her over 20 years of personal training experience, she\u2019s managed to work with 1,000s of clients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Below is a clip from IG of her client\u2019s training at The Inner Athlete:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n There\u2019s no doubt Alondra Chatman is extremely hard working. Yet, she\u2019s been able to juggle being a natural bodybuilding champion and successful fitness entrepreneur. And arguably the most demanding job of them all, a mother of two and a wife.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Alondra Chatman leads by example and accomplishes her mission of striving to be \u201ca walking advertisement of how a sensible diet and a combination of aerobic exercise and a smart weight training program can work for anyone.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Generation Iron would like to congratulate Alondra Chatman on winning the Figure Open at the 2021 Natural Olympia. And on being bestowed the Award of Excellence.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Follow us on <\/span>Instagram<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Facebook<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>Twitter<\/span><\/a> for more insights on natural bodybuilders! <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
