Biography

Celia started out as a swimmer. Her older sister got her into that sport at the age of 6, and Celia was competing heavily be the time she was 13. She says she was always active, and loved competing.

As she grew up and began searching for a career, Celia tried her hand at being a lifeguard as well as doing hair and makeup. In order to get back and forth to her job, around the time she was 19 years old, she began taking driving instruction. Her instructor was the son of a long-time Crossfit trainer, and told her all about the sport, encouraging her to give it a try.

In her early 20’s, Celia began applying herself to her new favorite sport, and began to see her potential.

Her first few Crossfit competitions didn’t go as well as planned. Celia was quite fit, but not very strong. So she started placing a lot of focus on weightlifting and getting stronger.

Competition History

Celia was ranked 8th in France and 386th in the world as recently as 2020.

Quotes

“I’ve learned that even if you are good enough to compete with the top girls, if you don’t believe you belong, you wont. I’ve hired a mental coach this year and it has made a world of a difference in the way I think, act and compete.”

Interviews

How did you get into Crossfit?
I started crossfit at the end of 2014 and just passed my ‘5 year anniversary’. I was helping my husband (boyfriend at the time), who was a personal trainer and had a booth at a local crossfit competition, with selling stuff. We were watching the girls and he said to me “you should try that, you’d be good at it”. I politely declined and then found myself two weeks later visiting my cousin in California getting pulled along to a class and LOVING IT. I was obsessed with learning all the movements and spent hours at the gym. The type of training brought me back to my gymnastics days and I loved that feeling of getting a new skill and getting stronger and fitter.

Yuan Herong

It’s pretty rare that I cover a Chinese fitness model or bodybuilder. It doesn’t seem like it is a wildly popular pastime in China, and I supposed I’m just not exposed to much of the mainland China culture. But today we have an exception!

Yuan Herong works as a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine. She is thirty years old, and was recently married. Although she dreamed of being a Kung Fu fighter when she was a kid, her parents, who are in the medical industry, forced her to follow medicine as a career. Darn parents!

Yuan has a tiny waist, and surprisingly broad shoulders. her quads are well-developed, and as you can see her abs are no joke.

She has competed at various times, and in fact I read some news stories that she was dieting for a bodybuilding competition when the Covid-19 virus took root in China. But I am not able to find any competition history to list for her.

Yuan has 400k followers on her Instagram account
