Sarah Villegas discarded her bodybuilding critics
After tolerating constant criticism, Villegas finally took to her Instagram to talk about the situation. To illustrate, she wrote, “Here is a conditioning lesson for those who questioned my conditioning at this year’s Olympia. I’m more conditioned than your favorite male bodybuilder, even on my softest day…” With this, she posted a picture of her back which more than made her point.

The picture was from the morning of prejudging at this year’s Olympia. She even understood what more she needed to do, and said, “It’s not just what you have, it’s how you display it on stage.” She was totally aware of her new approach this year. She even added, “This year I intentionally tried to present a little softer, and that was a mistake. The mistake started by me listening to the opinions of others leading up to the show of what Women’s Physique ‘should look like,”‘ and what Sarah ‘should bring to stage.’
She capitalized the word “intentionally” to indicate her realization of it. Villegas deliberately rinsed off her tan before the event and opted to pose more softly than before. In 2021, she held the title for showcasing her meticulous physique. Evidently, her new approach didn’t work out well and she ended up in 2nd place.
