Valia Ayyar

Valia Ayyar is a Detroit, Michigan NPC Bikini competitor, who’s risen to the top of the fitness, and modelling world through hard work and sheer determination.

When Valia grew up, she recalled being ‘skinny fat.’ She was never into sports or “being athletic,” said Valia. According to her, she “had toothpick arms and legs, flapjacks for a butt, and carried fat on my stomach.”

However, she decided to change her ‘skinny frame’ by joining a gym. Initially, she started working-out just to feel better about herself. The more she became involved in lifting weights, the more she enjoyed it.

I discovered bodybuilding and absolutely fell in love with the sport; everything about it from the physical to the mental aspect intrigued me. I’ve had a lot of hobbies but for once the first time in my life I found my true passion.

Throughout the years, Valia has dedicated herself to creating the best life imaginable for herself through fitness, and modelling. With a growing fan base on social media, there’s no sign of her slowing down.

Don’t compare, don’t care if the next person saw results in 3 weeks, and you haven’t seen any in a month. WORRY ABOUT YOU. and never stop grinding.”
