Biography

Chady Dunmore’s Sporting Beginnings

Born in Miami in 1980, Chady’s passion for fitness all started during her youth, where she began to take part in Taekwondo training from the age of 8. Four years later, she was able to earn her black belt in the sport – proof of her dedication to see things through until the end.

However, Chady began her battle against kidney disease from the age of 4 – something which would cause her problems later in her life. In spite of this, Chady kept pushing forward, eager to maintain her athletic lifestyle.

By the time she reached 12 years old, Chady began to take part in gymnastics and cheerleading, which continued throughout her transition into college. At this point, Chady was able to form a solid foundation for her fitness career – starting out in the modeling industry to supplement her academic career.

Facing Difficulties

After she completed her college studies, Chady relocated to California in order to move to the next stage in her fitness career. By this point, she’d made a name for herself as a model – setting her sights on becoming a fitness model because of her interest in a healthy lifestyle.

However, this is when Chady’s health took a turn for the worse. During the pregnancy of her first child, which was deemed ‘high risk’ by doctors, Chady gained in excess of 70 lbs. This was the result of the kidney problems which she’d suffered from since she was a young girl.

Making a Change

At first, Chady thought that she’d need surgery because of her heath issues. However, Chady was informed by doctors that all that was needed to regain her athletic figure was to start training in the gym, in addition to adopting a healthy diet.

From then on, Chady dedicated herself to build her incredible physique, that’s caused her to become an internet sensation. After a while, Chady went to visit a natural bikini figure show.

She was highly impressed by the sensational bodies of the competitors, but Chady thought that she’d never be able to reach that level herself. Until one day, when she proved herself wrong. Just weeks later, Chady was able to reach her weight loss goal.

After the excellent progress she’d made, Chady then came to the realization that in fact she could become a bikini competitor – if she really put her mind to it. By this point, Chady was passionate about lifting weights. As Chady says: “I fell in love with the gym and how it made me feel – in control”. Soon enough, she was ready to showcase her great physique on the bikini modeling stage.
