There are many reasons to be enthusiastic about the Olympia weekend from 2025 in Las Vegas, NV. The fans are delighted to see the athletes and the Olympia World Fitness Expo, the suppliers are pumped to be there networks and promote, and of course the best physics athletes in the world are ready to show why they deserved the right to be on stage.
Mrs. Bikini Olympia Laurie Chapados is pumped for this, but she is also enthusiastic for another reason -the SWAG that only receives Olympia competitors, the Olympia track suits.
“Getting that track suit is when it really gets, because only the athletes get it,” Said Chapados. “That has been one of the biggest things for me and sets the tone because we don’t see them until we are there.”
If everything goes to Chapados’s plans, she will not only wear a new track suit, but by the end of the weekend a new gold medal as a double Olympia champion.
Chapados will again be part of the 2025 Olympia, its eighth general. The majority of the experience of course feels for her on this point. She knows the buzz and atmosphere, is very involved with the fans because of the meeting and greetings and also appears at the Celsius stand, and she probably has her own routine for the day of preference. The only difference for Chapados this time is instead of haunting the title, she has to defend it.
“Preparing as a champion has been different and gave me perspective on how earlier champions did it. It’s not easy.”
The role she plays this year can be different, but the preparation did not suffer. In fact, she shared that her training prior to this year’s competition went very much to her liking.
“Prep has been absolutely fantastic, and just getting up, frankly.”
Her biggest challenge is as a champion
The selection of opponents reads like a WHOs WHO of the IFBB Pro League Bikini Division. Three-time Olympia champion and 2024 Olympia Runner-Up Ashley Kaltwasser, 2022 winner Maureen Blanquisco and Rising Superstars Jasmine Gonzalez and Aimee Delgado are some of the more than 60 competitors who will share the preferred stage. That many competitors in one show means that the champion is a long day.
“It means that the prejudice will be more than two hours if everyone sticks to their time.”
Despite the size and depth of the field, Chapados is only aimed at elevating her own physique, so that she can hear Bob Cicherillo say: “and yet” instead of “and new”.
“I intend to let that happen.”
The qualification system will change in 2026, which will result in a smaller field of contenders next year. That is no problem for Chapados, which is now qualified for life thanks to her victory in 2024. However, she hopes that her colleague athletes will not see the new system as a barrier, but rather as a proven ground.
“I was in the peloton in 2018 when I first qualified for the Olympia. It is really going to raise the division enormously.”
See the champion on and next to the stage
Chapados will become a member of colleague -Pro’s Regan Grimes, Mr Olympia Samson Dauda and other Celsius -athletes in the Olympia World Fitness Expo 2025, giving fans the opportunity to see the big ones during their competition weekends. It will be a busy weekend, but Chapados is enthusiastic to meet as many fans as possible.
“I have chills that just think about it. The energy in that place is so special.”
